Follow Tempo & Pitch appears not to be working

I have recorded a guitar audio track (guitar via interface into GB amp models/patches). I now want to slow down several other tracks slightly, but not that one. I choose the track and the guitar region, uncheck "Follow Tempo & Pitch" in the editor pane. I then adjust the overall tempo in the main tempo and key sig window at the top. The guitar track however still speeds up or slows down when I adjust the tempo. I thought that by unchecking the box, it would not do that. Am I missing something?


Any help kindly appreciated.


Garageband 10.3.4.

Delete region and track. Shut Garageband. Shut Mac. Following morning, open project again, add an empty track and re-record the part. Presto: works fine i.e as expected when I either check, or uncheck, "Follow Tempo & Pitch".


I should have done all of that before posting here. Sorry if I wasted anyone's cycles.
