Speed

Change playback speed from 25% to 400% without changing pitch.

Slow down a difficult passage to hear it clearly and practise along. Pitch stays the same while Varispeed is off.

Speed slider with Tap tempo, BPM input, and reset

  • Changes Speed by 1%.

  • Tap: move the pointer over Tempo to reveal the Tap button. Click along with the beat a few times to set the tempo.

  • BPM: enter the tempo manually.

  • Reset returns Speed to 100% and keeps the BPM.

  • BPM and speed: the displayed tempo follows playback speed. A 120 BPM song at 80% plays at 96 BPM. Entering a BPM corrects the tempo reading; use the Speed control to change playback speed.
