Publisher's Description
From Robert Moerland:
BestPractice is a musician's practice tool, to slow down or speed up music, either from an MP3 file or directly from a CD. Ordinarily the sound is distorted when slowed down our sped up - you get the effect like when playing a 33 rpm record on 45 rpm speed (remember the Chipmunks?).
BestPractice tries to correct this, so you can slow down and speed up music, while keeping the original pitch. It is also possible to change the pitch of the music without affecting its tempo. Play along with for instance Eb tuned guitars without retuning your own, or slow down that high-speed guitar solo on a CD that you like to learn. This version is the first release on CNET Download.com.

"Perfect Practice Software"
Version: BestPractice 1.03
Pros
Scope and execution and price
Cons
Not applicable
Summary
Scope is just right. Open an mp3, click play, click to set the start of the passage you want to work on, click to set the end point, set a percentage slowdown, click loop, and get to work on your chops. All you need, done just right.
After a few minutes using it I was very impressed and so grateful that somebody would put it out there for free I had to join cnet and leave my first review. Thank you for your fine work. -
"Best FREE riff learning tool"
Version: BestPractice 1.03
Pros
Simple to use
Excellent features
No spam or problems
It's FREE!!!Cons
A play list might be nice, but not absolutely necessary
Sound sometimes gets a little digital when slowing down the song a ton, but you can still hear the notes. Plus it's free so who caresSummary
Very simple program, easy to run. The loop is excellent especially when your really trying to nail a certain solo in a song. It could be useful for bass and drums as well. I definitly would recommend this as opposed to spending $50 for a more flashy program. Might as well give it a try! it's free.....
