    IMHO never trust a scale, keyfinder etc.... use your ears instead.

    Just swing the transpose knob about until the track is roughly in key - you should be able to hear a key clash and adjust for it, I would not go much further beyond 2 semitones up or down.

    If the key is only off by a tiny amount use the cents knob to get the tracks finetuned to each other.

    If you are slowing down tracks by -32% things like vocals and synths are going to sound really really weird and choppy .
