Online Radio chipmunk module
Chipmunking music is pitch shifting the music up plus slightly more rapid play It makes much music sound better chipmunking is doable with audacity thus a module to automatically chipmunk all of the stream of online radio would be nifty | |

You could click on different chipmunk versions
I find
New music is easier to appreciate sped up n pitch shifted
Theres a paper on how uptempo music elevates peoples moods I think that might be why there is so much chipmunk music at youtube Its kind of a separate culture Chipmunk online radio would thus be nifty

How would it sound if Alvin and the Chipmunks performed one of their "own" songs? |
|
|
The first sentence is chipmunking two or three sentences - so it seems baked... |

Apart from literary critique, i like the idea. With normal radio it would not work without buffering, but streaming radio is coming in faster than it is replayed anyways, and podcasts would work too. |

My mp3 player already has the ability to fast forward, although only in big steps (1.5 times normal is the slowest). I am not sure whether chipmunking involves anything more than replaying faster - this will make the frequencies higher all by itself, actually, Audacity can make music faster _without_ making it higher pitched, which is a much bigger task. |

Loonq: Chipmunking (I can't believe I've lived to see
'chipmunk' become a verb) involves more a pitch-shift than
would arise purely from speeding it up. For old-fashioned
tape-based purposes, the singers would sing at normal pitch
but to a slower tempo, so that playing the tape at a faster
speed would give an elevated pitch and a normal (or not
much faster than normal) tempo. |

I figured that was how it worked. |
