KikkyMonk,

 

I use SlowGold. You can download a demo version here:

 

http://www.slowgold.com/

 

The demo will only work on the first two tracks of a CD. The full version is $49.95. The same site has a cheaper one called SlowBlast that is only $19.95.

 

I know there are cheaper ones around than SlowGold, but it is pretty powerful and yet easy to use. When you create loops, it saves them and displays those loops every time you put that disk in. And you can add lyrics, attached JPG files (like a scan of sheet music) and it even has a big karaoke-style lyric display, so you could read it from across the room.

 

Of course it will slow down, speed up, or change the pitch of anything you put into it. I find that raising the pitch an octave can sometimes help in learning bass lines from a CD.

 

I like it, and use it almost every time I practice.
