VEC 1 & 2 in Reason nnxt/nn19

I am using Venegence Club essentails 1 & 2 and Reason 3.0. When using the offbeat bass samples (ex sample 120 in VEC2) in my sampler (NN19 or NNXT) as I am playing the sample and I change keys say from A2 to E3 the amount of time it takes to play the sample decrease as I go up octaves and increase as I go down octaves as to make the sample seem to be shorter in higher octaves and longer is lower octaves. Is this normal and how do I compensate for it? The way it is now I cant really use the bass/syth samples unless the notes played does not change for the entire track and this is a little boring. If anyone can point me in the right direction please.

Any body have a solution?

Im off to see Kyau & Albert/ Ronski Speed at 1015! Can you say Dance your *ss off? Who hoo!!!

Samplers operate like tapes. Higher pitch = faster speed = shorter sound. Lower pitch = slower speed = longer sound. It's physics, man!

Only way around it is to use a pitchshifter, but reason doesn't supply one of them, I'm afraid.

or just learn to use the subtractor

Yeah, those bass samples are one shot samples, not multisamples, so u realy can only use them on a small keyrange.
If you want to play your bass over a large range you should get a bass multisample patch, prob plenty of those in the factory sounds, or you should make your own.
Stack a few subtractors in a combi, a mixture of sine, square and sawtooth waveforms, add a scream, add unison, voila! Fatt Bass.
