After doing a few test runs I can confirm that Org Maker is quite a bit offkey. I don't think it's my computer, I believe it's orgmaker itself but why

OrgView, same problem, sometimes even worse.
And recording from Cave Story directly is a big nono since sound effects + getting the music you want to play might be tough depending on song. PLUS I'm lazy.

This way I'll never get my perfect recording

Which version of Orgmaker?

The gaps between notes fluctuate by about a bit more than a hundreth of a second (in my most recent test recording at 44.1kHz, the gaps (in samples) ranged from 16643 to 17189, so a max. difference of 546 samples, or about an 80th of a second. It sounds ridiculous, but the issue is there

It sounds the same to me throughout the whole song.

I tried Org Maker 1.3.4, 2.1.0, and Org View

Access has always sounded moderately off key. Have you not bothered to check if this behaviour is present in the original game? Apart from the hardcoded drums issue I was reassured by Noxid that the playback engine for CS, Orgview, and OrgMaker 1.3.4 are exactly the same.

No I haven't yet, will do now and check back in a minute.

Alright, checked, and surprisingly in the original game Access sounds perfectly fine to me.
And again, I can't record from the game since lazy and managing that would be a pain. (Plus Wind Fortress and Halloween 2 not being present in the game)

And I'm not even gonna start with fanmade players since those aren't trustworthy in the slightest

Mind recording that as well so that I can run a comparison of the two?

well, I guess, might take a few minutes tho
So to record I had to run CS in windowed mode and now it sounded like in OM / OV, except the difference of the gaps is so big that you can clearly see it without zooming in. WTF.

Then recorded CS in fullscreen, but yeah, same result.
I really don't get this. Sometimes it's fine, and sometimes the differences are extreme

Then I ran CS without recording, at first the song was fine but then there were some major skips. I checked my sound card settings (well, there barely were any) and I also ran some other checks, I'm absolutely sure it's not my soundcard. This is so bizarre to me

I really need to calm down and take a deep breath.
Things like this infuriate me way more than they should.
