![]() But Transcribe!‘s cool features and intuitive layout, great algorithms (minimizing mickey-mousing when changing tempo or keys) and killer exporting options make it by far my favorite of the lot. ![]() There is the “Amazing Slow-downer” and iPhone app I like, AnyTune Pro. Yes, there are other programs that can fulfill basic slow down/speed up functions – even free ones like Audacity. Even slow down videos and zoom in down to the exact note!.Export transposed or slowed down files for students, band mates…!.Set section markers, measure markers or even beat markers!. ![]() Boost frequencies to hear certain instruments better!.Change the key of any song (Working with singers, anyone?).Speed up or slow way down without changing the key!.Awesome key commands to make navigating the song a breeze!.Zoom into that waveform until it fills your screen! And I mean exactly– down to the very note! Or explore a fraction of the beat. With Transcribe! you can quickly navigate to exactly where you need to be. Ever try to transcribe a tune using YouTube? Forget about getting to your spot instantly (wheel galore! But also inaccurate). It is far superior to iTunes and other audio players (or worse, YouTube!) in just finding your spot. ![]() Here are 9 reasons why you really should look into it: Transcribe! for Windows Transcribe! for Mac Transcribe for Linux Header is image only) Transcribe! is one Nifty Program I’ve just bought a USB pedal so the whole process will be mostly hands free.(Scroll down to watch video. I have TAB/Stave paper, a pencil and an eraser and I write as I go. If I’m sitting down to get something transcribed, I plug my guitar into my audio interface, load up Transcribe! and S-Gear with a clean tone and listen through my best headphones. There’s also a keyboard and a spectrum that helps with note and chord guesses.Īll of this works with video files too, which is great. This makes it so much easier to hear individual parts clearly. One thing that I find super helpful is an option called “Karaoke Mode” which allows you to easily dial out or enhance voices/instruments somewhere in the stereo field. This can be combined with the pitch shift and the speed control. There’s also a very easy to use EQ with some helpful default settings, to help you hear certain instruments more clearly. It’s also very helpful when dealing with recordings where the band are in tune with eachother, but are not at concert pitch. This has been very helpful when I’ve transcribed guitars tuned to Eb (Jimi Hendrix, Scott Henderson, Yngwie Malmsteen, etc). In addition to controlling playback speed without changing pitch, you can make global changes to tuning also. Your markers allow you to switch between different points quickly and easily. It’s easy to place markers for sections, bars and beats and your marks get saved to a file for later use. What are some of the other functions aside from the ability to slow music down in Transcribe! that you’ve been so impressed with?Įase of use is a big one for me. Ads aren’t intrusive and can be removed for $2-3. It doesn’t have all the functionality of Transcribe! but it has enough. I also have an app on my phone (Android) called Music Speed Changer. I should really do more transcription, and I could if I were less worried about exact replication, but that’s my fault and no fault of the software. Obviously slowing down music allows you to better understand faster passages, but for me the biggest benefit has been understanding the bending, vibrato and note shaping techniques I admire from my favourite players. I couldn’t really do that without Transcribe! It’s a long process but it’s helped me to develop a more complete understanding of the players I admire. I’m kind of a perfectionist and whenever I transcribe music I try to get every detail perfect. I have one license code, but I have Transcribe! installed on two different machines. Every time there has been a new version my license has carried over.
