playback too fast chipmunks

[Mark Cosentino]

some sort of hardware / software / driver issue? 

i have poked and cajoled and researched but still have the chipmunks , when my session plays. if those sessions are lost it is not the end of the world, but i'd like to understand the tools and configurations.

First off you need to give us more information. All I get from what you've posted is that you have apparently made some recordings, a good chance in Cakewalk because you're posting here, and when you play them back, again, presumably with Cakewalk, they are playing at the wrong speed.

Is this what's going wrong?

Answer the questions that @Lord Tim already asked you: what audio hardware (interface) are you using and what driver mode? Project sample rate?

You say that you've "poked and cajoled." I assume you mean that you've tried different settings? What specifically have you tried?

Look for sample rates.  Look in every possible place were this can be configured and make sure they match absolutely everywhere.
