M5-3 Standalone IRCAM Stretch Speed Issue

I'm running M5-3: 3.2.1 x64 standalone under Mac OS X 10.11.2.

For years I have been using IRCAM Stretch to change the speed of WAV files. When I would instantiate an IRCAM Stretch oscillator and drop the WAV file into the oscillator, the Speed control would be set to 1.00 and when I would play C3, the sample would play back at its normal speed.

Yesterday, after exporting a few speed reductions, I dropped in a sample with the Speed control set to 1.00 and when I triggered it with C3, it played back much slower than normal. Trying various other samples now produces the same slow result. These are all 24/44.1 samples which play back correctly in DP, DSP-Quattro, RX 4, and the Finder.

Using a metronome and tapping to find the tempo of the sample playing back in DP, the original tempo is about 165.To get that correct original tempo in the Stretch oscillator I now have to set the Speed to 4.75.

I tried deleting all the com.motu.machfive* files from ~/Library, re-installing M5-3 and rebooting but it's still playing back too slowly at Speed 1.00.

I'd appreciate any suggestions of other things to try.

Are you dropping it onto the C3 key in the M5 display? Could the default pitch be set somewhere in the header of the sound file
