Ever have a solo you just can’t nail because it’s too fast? Ever want to slow it down to practice to? I have. I had thought my only option would be to buy something like Tascam’s CDGT Guitar Trainer, but now I’ve figured out a way to do it for free.
Import the mp3 you want to practice into Audacity, highlight the part you are having difficulty with, and use the “Change Tempo” effect to slow down that section – without changing pitch! It’s awesome!

Check out the new music player for musicians called mTrax at http://www.TerraSofta.com This one lets you section out any solos on any of your music that you want to learn and loop through them with slowed pitch. You can even change the pitch to tune to your guitar if you need to. No need to save files, etc., everything is automatically saved for you, and your music is automatically loaded and updated each time you open. Totally cool tool for the practicing musician.
Karl, brilliant suggestion. Audacity is so useful. This is such a perfect use. I’m going to tell my bass teacher about this.
Marcin/mguitar, Audacity is free. It runs on Windows, Unix/Linux, and OS X. Heck, even Audacity’s web page looks better.
