FYI, for the "Sweet Talkin' Woman" pitch experiment, I'm using the twin deck Stanton S-550 CD player. It has fly wheels, automatic tight cueing and is rack mountable, among many other features. It's inexpensive and I've had zero trouble with it.

Speaking of the Chipmunks, ever slowed down or pitched down any of the Chipmunk songs? Loads of fun. It's so obvious that all the voices are David Seville's when you slow it down, and funny to hear how slow he had to talk ad how exaggerated his enunciation is.

Hmm, I've never slowed down "Purple People Eater." I'll have to try that.]]> Wed, 26 Oct 2005 23:38:17 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=472&PID=2441&title=elo-sweet-talkin-woman#2441 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=472&PID=2440&title=elo-sweet-talkin-woman#2440 Author: Brian W.

Fortunately these days you can get PC software for ten bucks that has pitch control and a lot more.]]> Wed, 26 Oct 2005 23:35:31 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=472&PID=2440&title=elo-sweet-talkin-woman#2440 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=472&PID=2439&title=elo-sweet-talkin-woman#2439 Author: EdisonLite

Mine was the Denon DCD-815 and it really was marketed for the consumer. It was sold in a consumer store called "The Good Guys" which is basically just like Circuit City. Boy, it sure came in handy for CDs that had songs that were mastered too slow or too fast ... or when I occasionally wanted to get artsy and just have a song faster.]]> Wed, 26 Oct 2005 16:49:55 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=472&PID=2439&title=elo-sweet-talkin-woman#2439 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=472&PID=2438&title=elo-sweet-talkin-woman#2438 Author: aaronk

I used to use the Denon 2600F dual deck when I was jocking parties. Awesome CD players! In addition to pitch control, they had sampling, looping, digital scratch, multiple "hot start" cue points. Of course the price tag was about $1,000, but well worth it.]]> Wed, 26 Oct 2005 16:04:53 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=472&PID=2438&title=elo-sweet-talkin-woman#2438 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=472&PID=2436&title=elo-sweet-talkin-woman#2436 Author: sriv94

They're usually used by professional disc jockeys (I'm sure they could be for home use, but I haven't really seen one marketed as such). I saw a double CD player with pitch control (lot of other features too) from Gemsound for about $160 doing some searching on-line. There are other more expensive systems as well.]]> Wed, 26 Oct 2005 07:48:57 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=472&PID=2436&title=elo-sweet-talkin-woman#2436 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=472&PID=2435&title=elo-sweet-talkin-woman#2435 Author: EdisonLite

My old Denon CD player had pitch control. I bought it around '96. It was around $200. Unfortunately, Denon no longer has that feature on their new CD players.]]> Wed, 26 Oct 2005 07:38:14 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=472&PID=2435&title=elo-sweet-talkin-woman#2435 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=472&PID=2434&title=elo-sweet-talkin-woman#2434 Author: edtop40

I've got pitch control here. I just tried upping the "Flashback" box version by +2 and it clocked at 3:42. Upped it to +2.4 and it clocked at 3:41. My wife (who was an ELO fanatic in the 70s) says it now sounds like the Chipmunks. I'll get it to 3:40 and send it to you for comparison to your 45 if wish.]]> Tue, 25 Oct 2005 22:02:52 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=472&PID=2430&title=elo-sweet-talkin-woman#2430
