I didn't explain my purpose for using Audacity.  I use it to play MP3 files, but also

to change their tempo while preserving the pitch so I can learn drum and guitar parts

for complicated riffs.  It's excellent for this purpose.  I've tried a few other tempo

control apps before but they were excessively choppy.  It's been a while so if anyone

can recommend one that works better than Audacity these days, I'd love to hear it.
