Title: Question about playback speed
Post by: pgbass on February 16, 2003, 09:02:45 pm: I'm wondering if it is possible to change the real time speed (or length) of an mp3. Someone gave me an mp3 of some music that is running too fast, like the way music would sound if it were to be played on a fast turntable. I want to be able to slow it down if it's possible, either in playback mode or while burning.

I'm using MJ version 8.0.393

trap...
I was going to say pitch is frequency, but after reading this (http://www.mmk.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de/persons/ter/top/defpitch.html), I guess there's more to it then that.
