If you are on SwingDJs, Olivier, I'd love to read your playlist.

So yeah, I knew it would get some responses about not being cool to use, but really I was posting this in Tech Talk to get a technical answer to a straightforward question. Do you have software you'd like to share knowledge of to the folks here? I guess we're all able to judge for ourselves when or ...

I recently did some investigation into tools for the Mac that can be used to alter song tempos. It's fairly common to find a function called 'pitch control' on many standard DJ consoles, and I know many teachers add a pitch controller to their portable stereos for teaching purposes. If you're unfami...

Seriously, thanks.
