read the definitions and you might be able to answer it for yourself

one tune's the pitch of a sample. Tuning is changing the pitch of the sample. Pitch shift is tuning the pitch while keeping the same tempo. Time stretching is changing the tempo of the sample, while not tuning it and keeping the same pitch. I hope that helps. One
