Design Div. -ColoSpgs Lines: 11 I think Rat Shack still sells their tape recorder which allows you to up to double the playback speed of a tape and have the pitch corrected. I believe they use the technique described years ago in one of the popular electronics magazines using two "bucket-brigade" audio fifos and some fancy clocking which amounts to some type of re-sampling. I'm surprised some DSP type hasn't chimed in to describe this in detail. -Paul "Spice is the Variety of Life" paul@hpldola.hp.com N0KCL
