Transcribe! enables anyone to work out music by ear because it lets you slow music down to 5% of the original recording's speed without altering pitch. Import a sound file (mp3, wav, aac, etc) and you can then set markers, loop sections or jump to any section using keyboard shortcuts or mouse. For anyone who has transcribed the hard way this is an absolute godsend. For everyone else it’s an amazing tool for learning new music.

This slick piece of code converts any mp3 or audio file into a digital waveform that can be manipulated in a variety of ways. The program’s best attribute is that its slowed down audio, though not perfect, is extremely clear at half-speed. - Jude Gold - Guitar Player, November 2005 in his column “Field Test”
