Slow down audio with quick keys

can you slow audio just a bit with a quick key to check an editing point before cutting?

Logic 9 has speed fades that achieve this very easily. Plugins like Amazing slow downer could do this.
Have you tried turning the clip into an Apple Loop which follows tempo. Then slowing down the tempo of the project?

Can logic express slow down or change the key from playbacks like the program "Amazing slowdowner"?r

Hello,
I'm a new member and I'm actually trying to work with garage band to record voice and playback. Can "logic express" Vs. 8.0 slow down or change the key from playbacks like the program "Amazing slowdowner"? This is a programm wich costs 50 US Dollar and I want to decide if i buy it or not.
What is the hgreatest different between "garage band" and logic express 8.0? Who can hepl me, which is the right thing for me. I find it difficult to find out which effects are the best only to record my voice with playback.
Thanks for your advices.

If you want to slow down the audio why not download a program from ABRSM called Speedshifter- its free and is very good. you could export the audio from Logic and open the MP3 file with speed shifter. I think speedshifter may also have the ability to alter the pitch as well. I use it for Flute practice- its very useful !

Slow down issue with Premiere CS4 on a Mac pro

I am having a similar slow down issue with Premiere CS4 on a Mac pro, but I don't have bloated prproj file size.
Here is what I am working with:
Mac Pro intel quad core 2.8ghz
OSX 10.6.7 Snow Leopard
6Gigs RAM
3TB storage between 4 drives, each drive with about 50% free space
I am editing a 10 minute HD video from avchd files. The edited video is very heavy in photoshop files with a variety of different fx including green screen. The system has slowed down to almost a standstill. Anytime I move the playcurser, or try to do any action, it displays the spinning top "thinking" icon and takes 15 seconds to several minutes to unfreeze. I am often forced to force quit and I have gotten unexpected quits several times. The program also freezes on startup frequently.
No other programs are running. When I export with media encoder, it took about 4 hours to complete. The last 4 or so photoshop images I added seemed to tip the program over the edge. It had been slowing down some, but those last few really dropped the processing speed. Before those additions, export took 30 min to 1hr.
I did delete the render files (did not check if the file size was bloated beforehand, oops) but it has not significantly affected my performance.

Do you need all of those extra pixels in the stills? Are you panning the full 4976?
Two things to consider are that if you using, say a 1920 x 1080 Sequence Frame Size, you can only see that at any time, regardless of how large the images are in pixels. If there are extra pixels, i.e. the Pan is not using all 4976 pxls., I would Scale to just what you need in PS, prior to Import.
If you are doing any Scale in PrPro, its Scaling algorithms are not as efficient, as those in PS. [Note: CS5 and 5.5 are a major improvement on that statement.]
With many large stills (the max for CS4 is 4096 x 4096, if there ARE extra pixels, pushing those around will use up resources, and quickly. As a test, some years back, I was working on a "photo wall," and was using 4000 x 4000 images. The workstation had no issues with slowness, until I got to the 5th large still. By the 8th, the Project was too slow to edit. I had to wait for everything. Luckily, I have AE, and it handles large stills much more efficiently, and much differently, than PrPro. I just moved to an AE Comp, and completed the Project, finishing up n PrPro, after I Exported from AE.
Just something to think about. With Scaling in PrPro, this is one time, where bigger is not necessarily better.
Good luck,
Hunt

How do you slow down audio files?

Hey everyone! I was wondering if there is a way that you can slow down audio (not midi) in Logic. I really need that ability so I can start transcribing a lot of pieces for my music lessons...
If Logic doesn't have anything like that, is there a free software I could download (that is NOT one of those trial ones that only play 3 min of the song or can't export)? If it costs somethin', which one is cheapest but has good enough quality?
Cheers, thanks!

Have you tried to use the Time and Pitchmachine within the Sample Editor of Logic. To a certain degree you could certainly slow it down. If youre not happy with that, you probably would have to use another software or buy a third party plugin (like serato's pitch n' time)...

Slow down audio for language learning

My students want to decrease the speed of audio mp3 files for language learning purposes. How can this be done in iTunes on the following devices?
(a) on a Mac
(b) on Windows
(c) on an iPhone
(d) on an iPod
(e) on any other mp3 player you can name
If not iTunes, in another player?

Thanks, Kappy. Those desktop apps would be too pricey for my language learners. I use Audacity for this and other purposes, but it may require more steps than they can handle or have patience for.
They want to slow down audio files on their handheld devices. I see you can speed up a podcast 1x - 2x, but I don't see that you can slow it down.
Your suggestions pointed me in the right direction to search for an iPhone/iPad app. For any of you musicians and
linguists out there, I found

M9 Very Slow Charging Even With Quick Charge 2.0 Chargers

I have a continuing problem with very slow charging even with Quick Charge 2.0 chargers. For example last night I had the M9 plugged into a fast charger for over 12 hrs and it went from 5% battery to 87%. I checked the Settings - Battery usage history - and it displays "NO APPLICATIONS FOUND" - very strange...
Something is very wrong. I have multiple 2 amp and quick chargers all with poor charging times. I have tried each of these:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FW1GE9S/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L40YJ8O/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TAOEKPS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HP0FOCM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/
The Ampere app displays varying charger power from 15 mA to 880 mA so I don't think it is accurate.
Testing with multiple chargers point to the problem in the M9. This is maddening. Seriously considering returning the M9.
Any feedback?

Audio Zoom Quick Key (like in FCP)

Still getting used to the switch from FCP to Premiere. Overall I am impressed, but there are still a few things that make me mental with Premierre. In FCP I can zoom in any window with the command + and return to full view with the command z quick keys. I know that just the + and \ works for the timeline in Premiere, but not in the source monitor. Is there any such thing like that in Premiere - especially when viewing Audio Wave Froms in the source monitor? That little slider bar drives me nuts and waste a lot of time. It's much quicker to just zoom in and return to full view with a key stroke like I am used to in FCP. If anyone has a solution, I would be most greatful. Thanks in advance.

Thanks Jim for the reply. I do know of that featuer toggeling the panel full screen, but what I am wondering is that once you do that, is there way quick key that will then allow you to zoom into the waveform like when you use the sliders at the bottom of the panel. In FCP, i can put the play head near the spot I want and press the command + key and it will then zoom in on a frame by frame basis - much like hitting the + key in the main premiere time line. Does that make sense? Thanks again!

Slowing down audio so the pitch slows down too.

Hey everyone what’s the easiest way to slow wav files o that their pitch is also slowed down as well?
Someone previously suggested loading the sound into the EXS24 but how do I do this? When I drag the audio on that track it doesn’t seem to affect it so how do I actually import it in?
Thanks for any help you can give!

If you ever have money to spare, it won't hurt to get Recycle and Reason. This is second nature in the propellerheads world. www.propellerheads.se There is no easier format to work with samples than REX files(in my opinion). Specially loops.

Slowed down Audio

I have a Toshiba Satellite L645D-S4033 laptop. More than year ago my laptop developed this audio problem where it will play the audio at a ridiculously slow pace. For example it would take a second of any audio and instead of playing it a second, it would slow the audio and play that 1 second peice over the span of 10 seconds (it really just ends up soundin like if the laptop is becoming some sort of cyborg. At first it didn't happen very often so i let it be. Now it happens 2-3 times in any form of audio. Note: Whenver theres audio involved with visuals (ex: youtube, games) whenever the audio is slowed down, so is the video visuals. This is becoming an increasingly painful problem for myself. Is there anything I can do to solve this problem?
Note: I went to device manager and went under sound, video and found out that it is run by Conexant SmartAudio HD (not sure if this helps)

I've noticed that sometimes theres breaks in the music and pauses, is that a seperate problem on top of what I have or is it the same problem?
I certainly wouldn't know.
As I said, if you restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media and the problem remains, you'll know it's due to hardware.

Slowing down samples with pitch change

I'm looking for the easiest way to slow down a sample within Logic and have the pitch change as well.
For example, my sample is two bars of jazz piano at 140 bpm, I'd really like to take it down to
115-118 bpm and have the tempo change affect the pitch so it's lower and more suited to hip hop.
I use ReCycle, and so far I've tried two ways. I've tried loading the REX file directly from the browser and slowing down the master tempo, but it just stretched my sample out and kept the pitch the same.
I also tried loading the samples to the ESX24 and then adjusting the tempo, with the same effect....
Any suggestions anyone has would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Sed,
Use this one, in the *sample editor window*, with the correct sample/audio file in it of course:
Then pick *'classic mode' OR free mode* (both do exactly what you describe) and 'complex' algorithm. You can pick any setting in the Tempo or Pitch fields - they are linked. Click '*process an paste*' and you're done.
Regards, Erik

Hi-pitched noise on slowed down audio track

I'd like to increase the levels on an audio track that I've slowed down to 50% but I am prohibited from doing so because of a resultant hi-pitched background noise that seems to occur due to the speed change. I tried using a couple of the FCP audio filters (the ones for 'hum remover' and 'high pass filter') - does anyone have any suggestions for this problem? Using FCP 5.0.4.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Jim,
Thanks for pointing out that filters could be applied prior to the speed change. I did just try out your possible solution, using both of the filters that I previously mentioned, but the problem remains.
Again - thanks for offering a solution though.

Slow down loads with ios 5.1

I have an iPad2 and iPhone4, Is anyone experiencing slower down loads speeds for Apps and Music under iOS 5.1?

The app is called Speed Test. I think that is what Diavonex is referring to. I have the app. I don't know that is absolutely reliable either or all that accurate. It is however, a starting point.
I think you just might experiencing what a lot of users are seeing - an overload on all of the Apple servers. With the new iOS to download and all of the apps that now need to be updated - things were a little sluggish for me for a couple of days. My download speeds for the app store seem pretty good now.
Have you even tried restarting or resetting your iPad to see if that helps?
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Trouble Slowing Down Audio Files Using QuickTime.

Hello. I am currently using QuickTime to listen to audio files. Some of these file are so fast that I need to slow them down to hear everything. However, when I click the "Slow Down" button that is located at the top of my player, the files continue to play at the same speed.
I have tried downloading the most recent version of the QuickTime player, and I still have the same issue. Any advice on how to fix this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Here's a link through to your Drivers and Downloads page at Dell:

Probably best to enter your Service Tag (don't tell us what it is). Then you'll just see updates applicable to your particular configuration of C840. (Componentry can vary "within" a particular model, not just from model to model. So not all the updates I can see there will necessarily apply to your particular system.)

Slowing down audio?

I've been searching the forums, but can't find a clear answer.
If I record an audio track (or a few audio tracks), am I able to manipulate the tempo to what I want--ie, make it as fast or slow as I want?
Thanks for the help!

With Logoc 7.1, which cost $20 dollars to upgrade from 7.0, you are able to "follow tempo" with audio tracks. There is a parameter in the upper left corner of the track in the arrange window where you can select "follow tempo" This only works if the audio was RECORDED in 7.1. If audio was recorded in 7.0, there will be no parameter available, however you can BOUNCE that track, thereby creating a new audio file with that parameter available. The pitch is retained but there are audible artifacts which as far as I am concerned render the audio unacceptable. Sort of a warbling effect. I use this parameter only to keep the audio as a guide if I decide on changing tempos, whereby I will re record the tracks again.
