Its probably a mismatch of sample rates somewhere in the config, I've never tried as low as 11KHz before though so may even be a bug.
Your best bet is to batch resample them using something like sox or even manually in Audacity (WinFF maybe?) then import to Riv. Sampling up shouldn't introduce many noticeable artifacts especially if you go flat wav as the interim instead of mp3'ing them again.

These mp3 files are encoded at 11.025 KHz This is the file information for a representative sample: General Complete name : X:\Documents\WGTT\Problem Files\07 Track 07_28.mp3 Format : MPEG Audio File size : 488 KiB Duration : 2mn 4s Overall bit rate mode : Constant Overall bit rate : 32.0 Kbps Album : English Volume 132 Track name : Track 07 Track name/Position : 7 Track name/Total : 32 Performer : CMI Writing library : iTunes 8.1.1.10 Audio Format : MPEG Audio Format version : Version 2.5 Format profile : Layer 3 Duration : 2mn 5s Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 32.0 Kbps Channel(s) : 1 channel Sampling rate : 11.025 KHz Compression mode : Lossy Stream size : 486 KiB (100%) Once imported, these play back at high speed "donald duck" type sound. Does anyone have a recommended procedure for importing these types of files.
