PaceMaker is a plug-in module for WinAmp player that controls how the music sound as it's playing.

Here are some key features of "PaceMaker Plug-In":
? Speed up or slow down the music tempo without affecting the music key (pitch)
? Change the music key (pitch) without affecting the tempo
? Change the music "speed" (playback rate) as if vinyl records were played at higher or lower speeds than rated
? Do all of these at the same time.

Ok, sounds rather nice but why would anyone wish to do that*
? Someone may find listening to Elvis the chipmunk entertaining.
? Cyber caffeine : Listening to punk rock with some 20 additional tempo is roughly equivalent to drinking a full pot of coffee.
? In addition, it's turned out that there are also "useful" applications for PaceMaker:
? Slower music tempo eases practicing music
? Change the music key to match the singer's voice (karaoke, singing practice)
? Dancers can change the music tempo suitable for dancing
? Adjust music key instead of retuning instrument for each song
? Listen 78 RPM vinyl singles with a usual 33/45 RPM disc player
? Transcribe tunes
? Write down dictations
