Audio speed & pitch: inputs, results and limitations

Change recording speed by resampling, which also changes pitch.

How to use Audio speed & pitch

  1. Choose the appropriate input file. General limits are 30 MB per file and 100 MB total.
  2. Review the options before running: Speed multiplier: 1.25
  3. Inspect the preview or result, then download a new file.

An illustrative use case

A recording resampled for a 1.25 speed multiplier.

Select a real sample file you are allowed to process. Begin with a short, simple input before attempting a complex document or recording.

What to inspect in the output

Listen to voice pitch as well as duration. Resampling couples speed and pitch, so this is unsuitable when natural-sounding pitch preservation is required.

Where this tool stops

Resampling changes both speed and pitch.
