BIABman,

What you are experiencing could be audio artifacts that are related to audio compression/stretching due to using a Realtrack that wasn't designed for the tempo you need.

I'm not sure if you are aware of this, so I'll explain it just in case it's not known to you. My apologies if you're already on top of this stuff.

At the end of the Realtracks' names, you find numbers that a preceded by sw or EV: examples sw 060, EV 085, EV 120. The sw/EV means a swing feel or an even feel, and the numerals indicate the tempo at which the Realtrack is designed to be used. With this in mind, EV 085 means the track is an even feel and the Realtrack was created at a tempo of 85 BPM, so it is best suited to songs that are 85 BPM. My experience is that 85 BPM Realtracks are usually okay from 80 – 90 BPM songs (the –5 to +10 range). The further away from the Realtrack's creation tempo, the more likely that audio artifacts will be heard.

Many organ Realtracks, have a MIDI Supertrack created from them. Because they are MIDI, these MIDI Supertracks do not issues with audio artifacts whatever tempo they are played at. These would be worth having a look at.

I hope this helps,
--Noel
