No, the pitch isn't changed. The file still sounds good as a rule.

I'm familiar with the speech compression feature on APH tape recorders. When you speed up the file using the transfer software does the file still sounds smooth? I study a great deal. The first time around I like to listen at a slower speed. When I rereading a book, I would like to listen at a higher speed. So I'll give it a try.
