KP3 Pitch changes on tempo change

I'm using the KP3 and looping/playing along with my keyboard, however when I change the tempo of the loops, the pitch changes along with it - obviously making it impossible to play.

I've looked around in the manual and forum and can't find an answer.

Is it possible to have the pitch remain fixed whilst adjusting the tempo?

Terrible. Know of a looper that CAN do this?

i don't know of any hardware looper that can do this.
ableton does a decent job if you get the settings just right. it's not exactly an easy algorithm, whereas simply playing something slower or faster is.

i think it may be possible to trim a file somehow if that's what yr looking to do, but i can't remember.

Nope, I just want to be able to play along on the keyboard after making tempo adjustments, but this isn't possible when the pitch changes.

Maybe if I transposed my keyboard with fine tune..haha
