Change the Speed and Pitch of an MP3 While Downloading It
When extracting audio from a video you can adjust the speed (0.5x to 2x) and the pitch (±12 semitones) of the MP3, each on its own — no separate app, no extra conversion step afterward.
Speed and pitch, each on its own
If you simply speed up playback, the pitch rises with it — that's physics, not a player quirk. Here the two sliders are independent: speed up a song without it sounding like a chipmunk, lower the pitch without touching the tempo, or move both at once if that's what you want.
What this is actually used for
Karaoke: raise or lower a song's key to fit your range, without changing the tempo you're used to singing it at.
Practicing an instrument or a solo: slow down a tricky passage without dropping its pitch, so you can hear every note before playing it at full speed.
DJ mixing: match the tempo of a track to the next one, keeping the pitch if you're mixing harmonically.
Ringtones and short clips: combine it with trimming and fade in/out to pull out exactly the part you want, already adjusted.
Combines with trim and fades
Speed, pitch, trimming a section, and fade in/out all come out in the same MP3, in a single download. No need to chain tools together: pick the section, decide if you want it to fade in and out, and adjust speed or pitch if you need to — all before you hit download.

Frequently asked questions
Does changing the speed also change the pitch?
Not unless you want it to: they're two independent sliders. You can speed up a track without it sounding higher-pitched, or change the pitch without touching the tempo — unlike simply speeding up a media player.
Does the MP3 lose quality?
The adjustment is applied once, while generating the MP3, at the same codec and bitrate you choose for the download. There's no extra re-encoding step afterward.
Does it work together with trim and fades?
Yes, all three combine into the same MP3: trimming a section, fade in/out, and speed or pitch — all in a single download, no separate steps or apps.
Is this a Premium feature?
Yes. The rest of MP3 extraction (trimming included) is free; adjusting speed and pitch is part of the Premium plan, along with 320kbps quality and unlimited downloads.
Is it processed on my device or on a server?
In your own browser, with ffmpeg running locally. The audio is never uploaded to any server to apply the adjustment.
