Which option gives the best combo of easy to use features and bang for your buck? All I need it for is slowing down tracks for transcriptions. Thanks!

I use the Amazing Slow Downer app. There may be something better, I dont know. It does everything that I need it to do.

Take a look at Transcribe! as well. It slows down video and audio, and has looping, pitch, etc.

+1 for the amazing slow-downer if only for one feature:
SPOTIFY INTEGRATION.

I know you can rip any youtube or CD to MP3, but it's a pain. I can add a song to my spotify playlist, open ASD and just use one of the millions of available track with no issues or licensing problems.

It also has these 1/2x and 2x buttons that automatically half or double your slowed down loop section...

Cool tool.

I didn't realize that Amazing Slow Downer was only $10 on Android! COOL!

I use Transcribe!, as they have a Linux version, and I still use MP3s... I'm old school like that! Wink

AudioStretch for iPad/iPhone

They have a free 'Lite' version that has all the necessary features.
It has audio scrubbing too, which is very handy (you can drag the track and listen note by note, going back and forth).
Love it.
