I have loaded an MP3 file into my finale score, for some reason when I play the file in the score, it is transposed! The file plays fine in itunes, I have set the tempo to the same tempo as the piece was recorded in and it's in the same key as I've put in the score. What could be causing this?

thank you!

I'm following these steps to load the file:

Choose View menu > Studio View. Audio tracks are only visible in Studio View.
Choose MIDI/Audio menu > Audio Track > Add Audio Track. An empty audio track appears beneath the TempoTap staff.
Choose MIDI/Audio menu> Audio Track> Load Audio. The Open File dialog box appears.
