[PD] a little pitchshifter

[Mike McGonagle]

I don't want to change the subject (and if needed, we can start a new
thread), but as this might be a related topic, here it is...

What would it take to turn this into a "Slowdown" abstraction?
Basically, I am interested in slowing down the tempo of a sound, but
NOT changing the pitch...

Am I off-base on this? Or can this be used as the starting point for
what I described?

Thanks,

Mike
