Having problems with all my burners. I have a G3 with both SCSI and Firewire burners. I run both Cubase and PT as my main recording software. The strangest thing started happening the other day when I tried to burn a speech file. The final audio file burned to CD plays back a little slower than the previewed program track. Now before you say it, I've checked the sampling rate with all my interfaces and internal clock settings. Everything was done in 44.1. I tried burning with first toast and then jam, the results are the same, just a little slower than the original program. The final aiff file previews fine prior to the burn process. I fine that the problem only happens after the burn. I tries reviewing the CD on other players, thinking that the problem may be the player but it's the same. I've tried doing everything that I can think of to correct the problem but nothing seems to work. I can't determine if it's a software problem, processor problem or.
Any thoughts?

I wouldn't assume there's a mobo or proc problem unless there are blatant skips in the audio. If you are only getting a simple slowdown, I would re-check the entire clocking setup. The session may say "44.1" regardless of the speed the hardware is actually slaving to. (Possibly a broken clock generator?) If you want some more suggestions, describe your whole system in detail.
