Under Cranking the Track

To speed up the track, I first imported the song into Final Cut. I then clicked on 'Modify' and then 'Change Speed...' in the drop down menu.

After that, a small window appeared with the current speed settings of the track. I increased the rate to 200% and then clicked 'OK.' This made the song sound very high pitched and hard to understand the lyrics.

I selected 'Effects' located in the top left hand corner. This shows a list of effects that can be dragged on to video or audio. I dragged 'AUPitch' onto the audio.

I double clicked the track and then selected 'Filters' that appeared in the viewer window. I then decreased the pitch of the song so that I could understand what she was singing.
