I'd like to post a question about whether or not there is software or any other device that can change the key of a recorded mp3 or a single track of a CD.
Does it belong under Music (which is what it is...playing along with music in a certain key), Electronics (if it's a device like a CD player or effects box) or Computers (if it's software...which I don't know if it is!)? !!! |

I wouldn't move it if it was in any of those 3 sections. If it was in 'Pedal Steel', I'd probably move it to 'Computers' or 'Electronics', depending on whether the wording talked more about software or equipment.

I sometimes play a cd in my computer while an audio track is armed and recording in Power Tracks Pro or Cakewalk. Probably any software sequencer will work. In the sequencer audio edit window you can do several things, including changing pitch. Or use a ripping program to rip a track from a cd and open it in Power Track and manipulate it in edit.
Guess that makes it "Computers".

I'd choose COMPUTERS.
The, imo, answer, IMO, is TRANSCRIBE http://www.seventhstring.com
I've been using it for two years and love it.
Not free but worth every cent. |

| Hey Joey, does Transcribe give you the ability to change the pitch of a sound file and then save it? The web site doesn't mention that feature. |

b0b,
Basically no,
TRANSCRIBE saves a file with your markers, and changes, but also requires the source file to replay. It has many other neat features that make it ideal for my transcribibg and practice needs.
For modifing and saving, I use Audacity. It's free. http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
I use both on my Powerbook.
TRANSCRIBE has a Windows version.

OK, I guess "Computers" wins!
Thanks for the tip, Joey.
I'm going to download audacity
and give that a try...it seems like
an interesting program for all
related audio files. |

Your welcome guys.
I'm moving this to COMPUTERS.
Audacity it the program I use to quickly cut little clips out of files, to get small MP3s to post here, or email to people.
The Wolf Whistle I recently posted in the TAB section is a good example. The fade in/out was also done with Audacity.

The Computers Forum, of the SGF, welcomes discussions about using computers and software to record, edit and playback music tracks.
I use Cool Edit Pro (no longer available as such) to record and edit audio tracks. It has a pitch transposer function. I believe that the new owner, Adobe, has released the same program under the title "Audition."

I use Cool Edit 96, (the ancient version,) and have Cool Edit Pro, too, but I rarelty turn it on. Probably because I like CE96. I'm not sure if it does pitch and I've never needed it.

Try this one: http://renegademinds.com/ Gutar and Drum trainer. Changes pitch, slows down, speeds up, works great. And it's free! free! free!
