Hi,
This post will interest those who are learning an instrument.
If you have never heard of it, I'd like to introduce you to the guitar and
drum trainer kit. It's a free mp3 player which allows you to speed up or
slow down a music file. The guitar and drum trainer will also allow you to
take a segment of an mp3 file and have it loop so as to help you master a
particular piece of a song. Having just taken up the accordion, I've just
gotten into it myself and I already see how it can be a great help. In the
past I used to take an mp3 song, break it into three or four parts using
Goldwave, then have each part loop within goldwave until I got a good handle
on it. This little program will loop a segment of an mp3 in seconds. No more
snipping and cutting. I can't get into its full value and detail all of what
this little program can do, but I think that, since many of us learn an
instrument by ear, I have no doubt this little program will soon swarm the
blind community. PS. There are terrific Jaws scripts for it also.
Here's the URL to get the program and scripts.
