Re: changing keys on a cd audio file Click Here to Report this message to the Moderator Posted by Colin (via moderator) (from: 203.219.45.190) on February 05, 2004 at 17:25:29: In Reply to: changing keys on a cd audio file posted by Diane Fry on February 28, 2003 at 08:55:17: : Is there any software that will let you change the key of an audio file ripped from a music cd (say,from the key of C to key of D, etc.)and then save this change in the file? I don't mean just changing pitch of the vocals to correct singing off-key, I mean lowering or raising pitch of all instrumentation/vocals to any desired key. Diane, I am interested in this too - I`ve asked loads of people in the music hi tech world & no one seem to understand ! Pitch shifters will change the key by altering the tempo & can lead to chip munk type sounds. Just about every piece of software has been suggested to me ie.,Steinberg Wavlab, Acid Music(Sonic Foundry)etc.,but no one is sure. This stuff costs big quids & you take a chance if you buy it & it doesn`t do the job. What you probably want is something that will change the key of the track - to suit your voice - then burn it back to a CDR in the corrected key to use live . Every time I ask it`s midi file this & re sample that. I`m still looking & if I find it I`ll let you know ! Please do likewise if you get there first !
