Sounds like a problem with your keybaord maybe.  Try this: in the 
environment's Clicks & Ports latyer, create a Monitor object.  Cable 
the Physical Input object's SUM outlet into the Monitor (click-hold 
on the little triangle after SUM and drag until the Monitor object 
lights up), and cable the Monitor into the "to Sequencer" object 
(sometimes called "to Rec & Thru").
Now play a middle-C on your keyboard.  If all is well, the Monitor 
will show a C3 or C4 or something like that being played.  If it 
shows something ridiculously high, like a C7, your keyboard is at 
fault.  If the Monitor shows the right note however, but the sound is 
still too high, you at least know it's not the keyboard but a 
software problem.
