Thanks for the screenshot. It seems that you're doing everything right. Probably your Java version is too old for the application to start :(

Works for me, only comment i have is:
I can't seem to make the bass sound clearer with the transcribe option

can you post a mini review? :)


EDIT: it seems i am up to date with java. look at this (information from the java website when i tried to update)

Verified Java Version
Congratulations!
You have the recommended Java installed (Version 6 Update 21).


So, the application is not running and it is not because of java. now that we got this out of our way, any more suggestions? :D

It worked great for me, although I found a couple of mp3s that played way too fast (encoding rate issues?) and then locked it up. Mostly, it worked really well. A little instruction manual for the various functions would be helpful.

I co-teach a high school intro to programming class that uses Java. I'd like to show this to the kids. I think they'd really get a kick out of it. It's very creative.

I did Link Removed.

John D: I think Java should work ok in 64bit Vista.

If you're thinking about adding features, you might want to take a look at Invalid Link Removed, especially the Karaoke e.q. section and being able to record a slowed down recording or section.

IMO, you're program could be the go to "slow downer" program, especially if can add more features.

It would be helpful to have a few preset click marks on the slow done scale so the user would be able to get back to the exact same speed.

Karaoke mode sounded fun, so I programmed it right away :) ... Technically it removes the center channel so usually also bass track is removed, which is a great feature for bassists.

The updated version is available on the website. Karaoke mode can be activated from Audio | Karaoke mode.

On a gnu/linux installation, Ubuntu 10.04 fully updated, with no Pulseaudio:

The program starts, but it says there's no audio device available.
Maybe is it working with Pulseaudio only? ......
