Hello again
Is there a recommended pitch transposer. I'm looking to take all 225+ of
my backing tacks for my one man show and move them down a whole step. My
backing tracks were all done in CW and have been rendered to either wav or
mp3 files--these I play thru a laptop in winamp and jam guitar/sing over.
I'm real picky about the sound and am not impressed with either the CW or
sonic foundry plugs I've tried. I really want that snare to sound good and
the bass not to be murky, etc... By tuning my guitar down a step I will be
able to add many songs to the repertoire that I am unable to sing. You may
ask why I don't just do the tracks in a different key from the start-and,
well-I have done that on many occasions. However, there are many rock/metal
tunes in E or drop d where you cannot effectively change key and play it
correctly on guitar (because of open strings,etc).
Thanx again

For the PC - TimeFactory is probably the best pitch/time application.
