Changing Playback Speed (Variable Speed Play)
You can adjust the play time by changing the speed of play.
You can adjust the speed of a track in the normal range of ±12.5%. You can play late at up to 12.5% of normal speed (in this case, a pitch is low) and fast at up to 12.5% of normal speed (in this case, a pitch is high).
