sorry if this has been asked before but if anyone could help if would be greatly appreciated.Is there or does there exist a program for the computer that slows music CD's down?How does it work and is it worth it? Thanks in advance
Yup, it's been asked, but no troubles. The Amazing Slow Downer is the one most people come up with. Take a look in the links section or do a search on "slow downer".
If you use Windows Media Player version 9 on a Windows XP machine, it has a slow down function built in that works on CDs, mp3 files and midi files. Open Windows Media Player, click on 'View', then 'Enhancements', then 'Play Speed Settings', to bring up an adjustable slider bar. It's pretty basic, and doesn't offer the range of features found in commercial software like the Amazing Slow Downer, such as changing pitch, but it works OK if all you want to do is slow tunes down (or speed them up).
Cheers
Transcribe is a good program, as already mentioned, but you need Windows XP to get the full benefits. It will work on earlier versions of Windows but you have to save the required music files from your CDs to the hard drive first. With XP, you can just insert the CD you wish to slow down and it works straight away without having to save any files.
The "pitch change" facility is good and you can choose a "friendly" key or reclaim the tune from some of these "smart a-se" professionals. Only kidding.
I actually love the Amazing Slow Downer. But I found it works better on my new laptop versus my old desktop PC. In fact, I'm about to close this page down and start learning Trim the Velvet using the ASD. Check out this link. You can order it from here:

Re: question
I've tried the demo version of 'Transcribe' from the web and found it very easy to use - I've also been recommended one called 'Seventh String'.
