Fun with quicktime

[SillyDreamer]

Apologies in advance for forum on-topic Nazis-ahem, purists

I recently discovered the joys of listening to my Stevie material using Quicktime 7 on my Mac. Now for all I know it has the same great features on Windows. But on the mac, if you hit Window --> show A/V controls, it lets you alter, among other things, the speed of the mp3. I've often heard of users wishing they could to this to many a Stevie song -Silver girl, anyone?

Some other suggestions:

• Move sound on "Illume" to the right speaker, and speed it up 1.5x..... instant illume remix
• Bring "Fall From Grace" to around 3/4 speed, just for a change. It's not bad! Neither is Insider live at 1.2x.. both are nothing compared to the originals of course. Just a change of pace
• Bring those tracks that always seemed just a little *too* slow for everyday consumption up to 1.25x... IMO, it works wonders for The Highwayman, After the Glitter Fades, and That's All For Everyone. In fact, feel free to speed that one up 1.5x, lol. (warning, if you try to do it to Garbo, her vibratto speeds up to scary heights. Not recommended. Haha!)

Now of course, you can't save the tracks. But would you really want to? I don't think its a good idea to permanently alter a song that ultimately the artist chose to make a certain speed. But a little fun with Quicktime now and then never hurt anyone Enjoy... and post your favorites here!
