I think the pitch shift works by either compressing or stretching the time.... -ei:pitch-shift-% Pitch shifter. Modifies audio pitch by altering its length. which i think means that -ei:50, for instance, will make the file play twice as long while sounding at half pitch and -ei:200 will make the file play half as long while sounding at twice the pitch. I did some simple tests on this at home the other night. A pitch shift of less than 100% is equivalent to time stretching while a pitch shift of greater than 100% is the same as time compressing. -Eric Rz.
