Why slowed + reverb hits different
The effect chain is simple and that's the point: the song is played back at reduced speed — like vinyl at the wrong RPM — which drops the pitch a couple of semitones and stretches every transient. Then a long hall reverb fills the new space between the notes. The result reads as memory rather than music: familiar melody, underwater warmth, distance. This tool renders that chain authentically — a true playback-rate slowdown (not a pitch-preserving time-stretch, which sounds clinical) into a convolution hall.
Good starting points
- Classic — 0.85×, 35% reverb. The canonical sound.
- Subtle — 0.92×, 20%. Keeps the song danceable, adds haze.
- Heavy — 0.75×, 50%. Full 3 a.m. nostalgia.

FAQ
Why does slowed and reverb lower the pitch?
Authentic edits slow the actual playback rate, which drops pitch with tempo — that deeper tone is the genre's signature. For tempo change without pitch change, use the Speed Changer.
What speed do slowed and reverb edits use?
Most sit between 0.8× and 0.9×, with 0.85× the de-facto standard. Below about 0.75× things start to smear.
Can I post edits of copyrighted songs?
Slowing a song doesn't change its copyright — platforms may mute or remove edits of music you don't have rights to. Use your own, licensed, or royalty-free music for anything public.
Is the song uploaded anywhere?
No — everything renders on your device via the Web Audio API.
