Great Music Apps

Thought I'd share two recent discoveries with ya'll.

33 RPM
Mac OS
A great little app for breaking down the audio file to learn it by ear. You can adjust speed (w/ or w/o adjusting pitch), and loop.

Foobar2000
Windows OS - Mac OS*
An audio player with customizable user interface. Many UI are out there, but here's the cool part, one of the plugins allows for audio quality testing:
ABX
Performs a double-blind listening test between two tracks.
In other words, always wondered if you could tell the difference between FLAC & V0 LAME audio codecs? Now you can test yourself, in a controlled environment. Install this plugin on your Foobar2000 app and plug in your stereo/headphones and take a blind test!

*Foobar2000 for the Mac OS is not an official release from Foobar, it runs using Wine. If I can find where I downloaded the mac version of Foobar2000, I'll leave a link, otherwise you'll have to search for this yourself (I remember it being on a forum containing screen shots of the installation process on a Mac.)

Hope you guys find this helpful and/or enjoyable.

Hey, years ago I had to pay hundreds to get this much functionality.

Cheap guitars, cheap digital software recording, you kids are spoilt!

Guitar pro is for the Mac (and I assume, similar to Power Tab)

It is amazing how much is out there, the trick is to use it.

@KicknGuitar

Dam straight! Ive met so many people that want to record music and I then give them all the links to fantastic free software.

If you dont use it, then its worthless!

OH hell yeah I am!!! And I love it.

www.kvraudio.com/ (if we talk about virtual instruments, effects and sequencers) you dont need another one.
