Need information on how to alter audio playback speed

[matt_c_j486]

Hi there:

I have an audio file (.wav, can easily be converted obviously) that I need to transcribe into a word document. I was going through my various audio programs (audacity, Windows media player, quicktime, itunes etc.) and I haven't been able to find any functionality to alter the playback speed.

What I need to do is slow down my file by a little bit for the duration of the track, so that I can keep up with the people speaking on the audio track. (half speed, 3/4 speed anything slower!)

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Matt.

Check Audacity again. You can select/highlight the entire track then go to Effects > Change Speed. Move the slider back and presto.
