If it was recorded too slow, both pitch and time should be
corrected--I don't know CEP either, but it might be called "varispeed
mode" or something like that.

Also, doing that does much less damage to the audio. Time-stretching
has to deconstruct and reconstruct the audio radically. Simple speed
changing is just resampling.
