Time and Pitch Scaling Plug-in for Winamp
Time stretching and pitch scaling plug-in. Chronotron 3.5a is an improved version of the popular DSP plug-in that allows you to manipulate tempo and pitch separately, in other words, it allows you to change the tempo of the music without affecting pitch (time stretching) and/or change pitch without affecting tempo (key change).Based on a phase vocoder, Chronotron is the first plug-in to deliver high quality audio in real-time at reasonable scaling ratios.VERSION 3.5a:A lot of fixes since v3.12. Check the readme file for more information.

Staff Review:

Cool timestretching/pitch control dsp plugin
Chronotron allows for you to change the key and tempo of a song independent of one another. So you can change the tempo of a song without affecting the pitch, and vice versa. You can come up with some nifty sounding efx with this plug. The interface is clear and easy to use.

Not Quite There
This thing does work and it's about as usable as you can get. Definitely fun for changing the texture of electronic music.All that said, it has issues. For something with such a high price, it should be harder to crash. Oddly, it seems to work better on some files than others. Some get distorted; this may not be fixable.The UI is fine, although if it's going to have a nice black look, it would be nice to have the window border, etc. match that look -- again the pricetag is a factor there.I'm not going to register this. I think I'll go find an open-source plugin that does the same thing (if one exists). At least that way I can help stop any crashes! :-)
