Does iPod Pitch Control work?

<< < (2/2)

lini:
Actually, it was kind of hard to get to a specific value (e.g. 104.3%) because of the iPod scrollwheel. The scrollwheel always picked up a short scroll even if you wanted a long one - so instead of changing the pitch by say 2%, you change it by 2.1% because of that short scroll. I am sure that if you use it a lot you will get used to it :)

BTW this test was done with the latest nightly build and the extra 0.1% could just be a bug.

kevininspace:
So, does this mean that to change the pitch you also change the tempo, and vice versa? This would be great, as I listen exclusively to spoken word podcasts and often want to increase the playback rate.

And it works on all devices which support RockBox (i.e. including iPod)? Certain models of iRivers and Cowon players can do this with a firmware upgrade, but this is the first time I've heard of it working on an iPod.

Atheistic Freedom:
Yes, it works.  Every now and then I play around with it for kicks just to hear the singers change into girly men  ;)

kevininspace:
Awesome! I'm buying my new mp3 player today (!) in that case.

Thank you Rockbox gods.  :)
