When you can play along flawlessly at 110% speed then you’re ready to go out and perform! The pitch shift lets you match the tuning of a song to your guitar or vocal range - you can adjust by semitones (frets) and fine tune as needed. Tempo shift is very usable even at half speed, letting you hear details of instruments and rhythms and learning notes and chords at a more manageable pace. Note: this is same version I got from SOS in May: 1.6.3.0. Pitch and tempo changes would be helpful for any instrument or vocals. This is a fun and useful program! Aimed at guitar players who want to know the chords to a song so they can play along. Now you can choose to solo or mute that instrument. Then use the width and separation controls to fine tune the sound. Using the graphical display, scan through the stereo space until you hear the instrument you want in greatest detail. Use mute mode to remove the guitar and make a backing track. The isolate tool lets you find the guitar in the mix, and extract it right out so you can hear it in isolation. Riffstation also has a capo tool which allows you to transpose only the chords without transposing the audio. For the out of tune recordings, you can fine tune in cents! Now you can retune the song instead of the guitar. With the pitch tool you can transpose any song to a new key without affecting tempo. Have you ever tried to learn or practice a song only to find it’s tuned a half step down or between two keys? Perhaps you like to sing too and you’d prefer to learn the song in a different key than the original recording. Now you can learn and practice at your own speed. Our high quality time stretching algorithm ensures that the pitch and quality of the sound remain as natural as possible. You can slow down as much as much as 25% of the original tempo, or speed up to double speed and everywhere in between. Our amazing slow down tool lets you slow down or speed up any song in your music collection without affecting the pitch.

With Riffstation, you can set the pace! Slow down any song without affecting the pitch and sync a metronome to help with your timing. You can use our chord edit feature to manually modify the chords if required. Our chord recognition algorithm detects major and minor chords with approximately 80% accuracy for popular music. It’s guitar hero for real guitar players! Load any song and our technology will automatically calculate the chord accompaniment in a few seconds. Riffstation even shows you how and when to play each guitar chord synced with the original music. Riffstation uses automatic chord recognition technology to ‘listen’ to the music and figure out the chords for you.
