I don’t know how to convert .dct to .mp3, sorry. But if you want to slow down mp3, the easiest way is to use Audacity. Open the song, select the entire track, then go to “Effects – Change Tempo” menu.

For more bells and whistles, you could use Garageband.

do you happen to know how to convert a .dct file into an .mp3 (using express scribe and a converter–eg, switch–while preserving the slowed-down speed as part of the saved file?

i have dozens of .mp3 tracks of spoken Latin that I’d like to hear at a slower speed until i can understand them at full speed. ideally i’d like to hear them on my iPhone so i can listen on the go (instead of just through my laptop). i just found express scribe, but i couldn’t find a way to save the slowed-down file (at half-speed) for transfer to an itunes .mp3 and then the iPhone. do you know a way to do that?

thanks in advance for any suggestions!

To snoop911: you might as a workaround try using Jack (Jack Audio Connection Kit) (or for that matter something else) to route your chipmunk audio—I assume from your comment that you’ve gotten things to work such that you have fast video plus chipmunk audio—through a pitch shifter to shift the pitch back down. I don’t have a specific suggestion re pitch shifter, but I’d say there are lots around by now, either as plugins to audio players (most likely) or possibly as standalone apps. Probably you’ll need to find one that works in real time. Jack is free by the way, both as in speech and as in beer ;-). I’m a recent switcher from OS X to gnu/linux, and I used it on OS X 10.3.9, and have it now on Ubuntu Studio. Jack is very nice, and there are probably other ways to route audio too. I don’t have a link for it but you might check freshmeat.net. Hopefully this helps. Now I’ll try posting this again…

I’ve got tons of training / lecture videos that I’d like to review but want to watch at 2x or 3x, without the chipmunk audio!

I know there’s audio programs that can handle the audio track, but I can’t believe there’s no video+audio version of it! Its 2010, and none of the fancy high priced video editors (premiere, final cut, etc) have this simple feature!

Anyone know of something?
