How do I fix my custom footstep sounds from being sped up and high pitched?

[alfiegamertv2 (Alfie)]

Recently, I just added a custom script to my game that adds custom sound effects to when the player walks on a certain material. But for some reason, it is sped up and high pitched.

→ Here’s how it’s supposed to sound (looped)

→ And here’s how it sounds in game (The sound may be a bit quiet)

As you can tell it’s sped up and high pitched. Does anyone know a way to fix this by either a script or something?

Also here’s the code for the custom footstep sounds:

local MaterialSounds = 
	{
		[Enum.Material.Grass] = "rbxassetid://507863105",
		[Enum.Material.Metal] = "rbxassetid://944089664",
		[Enum.Material.DiamondPlate] = "rbxassetid://944089664",
		[Enum.Material.Pebble] = "rbxassetid://944090255",
		[Enum.Material.Wood] = "rbxassetid://118963081526014",
		[Enum.Material.WoodPlanks] = "rbxassetid://944075408",
		[Enum.Material.Plastic] = "rbxassetid://944075408",
		[Enum.Material.SmoothPlastic] = "rbxassetid://944075408",
		[Enum.Material.Sand] = "rbxassetid://944090255",
		[Enum.Material.Brick] = "rbxassetid://4981969796",
		[Enum.Material.Cobblestone] = "rbxassetid://4981969796",
		[Enum.Material.Concrete] = "rbxassetid://78958298131160",
		[Enum.Material.CorrodedMetal] = "rbxassetid://4981969796",
		[Enum.Material.Fabric] = "rbxassetid://4981969796",
		[Enum.Material.Foil] = "rbxassetid://4981969796",
		[Enum.Material.ForceField] = "rbxassetid://4981969796",
		[Enum.Material.Glass] = "rbxassetid://944075408",
		[Enum.Material.Granite] = "rbxassetid://944075408",
		[Enum.Material.Ice] = "rbxassetid://4981969796",
		[Enum.Material.Marble] = "rbxassetid://944075408",
		[Enum.Material.Neon] = "rbxassetid://4981969796",
		[Enum.Material.Slate] = "rbxassetid://944075408",
	}

local Character = script.Parent
local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local HumanoidRootPart = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local FootStepsSound = HumanoidRootPart:WaitForChild("Running")

Humanoid:GetPropertyChangedSignal("FloorMaterial"):Connect(function()
	local FloorMaterial = Humanoid.FloorMaterial
	local Sound = MaterialSounds[FloorMaterial]
	if Sound then
		FootStepsSound.SoundId = Sound
	else
		FootStepsSound.SoundId = "rbxasset://sounds/action_footsteps_plastic.mp3"
	end
end)

(This script is put in StarterCharacterScripts if anyone’s wondering)

Also the example I’m using is the Concrete sound effect

If anyone knows a fix, plz help!

The ‘Running’ sound instance weirdly enough comes with a standard PlayBackSpeed of 1.85.

I replicated this scenario you’re having by adding a sound to the Workspace and playing it with a PlayBackSpeed of 1.85, and with looping enabled it sounds the same.
Therefore I imagine changing the sound’s PlayBackSpeed to 1 before you play/change the SoundId should return the sounds going back to normal.

Yeah, I just noticed that I needed to copy the local script called RbxCharacterSounds from StarterPlayerScripts and then change the pitch for ‘running’ to 1 and now it works, thanks!
