Rubber Band is an audio time-stretching and

utility designed for musical applications.

It includes a library that supports a sample-accurate multithreaded
offline mode and a real-time lock-free streaming mode; a command-line
utility program; and a LADSPA pitch-shifter plugin. Rubber Band is
Free Software under the GNU GPL.
This small update (v1.0.1) fixes an option parsing bug and a dodgy
bit of #ifdef nesting. The core code is the same as in 1.0.
Very cool. I find myself needing to pitch shift something, rather my
friends ask me to do this for them, a few times a year. Quite a long
time ago I found the real-time time stretcher in Snd to be quite good
compared to the same in either SoX or Audacity. Would you have any
feel for how Rubber Band compares to any of these three programs?
Yeah, I know I need to find out for myself, and I will .....
There doesn't appear to be a vamp-sdk package for debian, alas.
The README for Rubber Band doesn't mention where to get vamp-sdk either. Google turned
up a bunch of stuff at
http://www.vamp-plugins.org/download.html , but I couldn't find
vamp-sdk, rather vamp-aubio, Queen Mary, and a bunch of other interesting stuff.
