Software thingy to slow down MP3s?

Sign in to disble this ad
I guess the title says it all.

When trying to find the right notes, I sometimes end up listening to the same song 20 times, never always satisfied.

I know there are little programs out there to do that.

Which do you know and recommend?

Thanks!!!!!

I use transcribe. It does a lot more than slow the song. You can change the pitch; which I use because we often change keys. You can loop a section. Lots of stuff.

Audacity is a free tool that can slow down audio without changing the pitch.

The Amazing Slow Downer. Will do mp3's and itunes files straight from the itunes library.
Change pitch etc... very cool and well worth the price.

+1 Audacity is the bomb. It's also free. You can edit the tempo, the pitch, and with VST plug-ins, do about anything else you would want to do.
