rainbird Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Outrageously overdue to wean myself away from...(shameful confession) making practice CDs from MP3s and playing along with those CDs to learn tunes. I have a little Alesis unit which allows me to transpose, change pitch slightly, and slow down passages on the fly. I can also repeat tracks. I realize this confession is somewhat like saying I still use a rotary dial telephone (I don't.) I googled music software and my mind is a bit boggled. What I really want and need are the above functions, with the option of creating a practice playlist. If your recommended software includes other functions, I'm fine with that as long as the software is well-written, intuitive, and for a Windows 7 PC. I believe in reimbursing a software developer for a well-made product, so not limiting this to freeware. What practice software have you folks found to be intuitive and useful?
