Question 1

What is a slowed and reverb song?

Accepted Answer

A song played slower and lower than the original, with a lot of reverb added, which gives it a dreamy, washed-out sound. The style is popular on YouTube and TikTok.

Question 2

What settings sound best?

Accepted Answer

Most edits use a speed between 0.8x and 0.9x with 30 to 50% reverb. The defaults are 0.85x and 40%. Lower speeds sound heavier and slower.

Question 3

How much lower is the pitch?

Accepted Answer

The pitch drops with the speed, like a record played too slowly. At 0.85x the song is about 3 semitones lower. At 0.6x, the slowest setting, it is almost 9 semitones lower.

Question 4

Why is the new file longer than I expected?

Accepted Answer

Slowing a song makes it longer, and the reverb adds a 3.5 second tail after the last note so the sound fades out instead of stopping. With Reverb at 0% there is no tail. At 0.85x, a 3:00 song becomes about 3:35.

Question 5

How do I make it only slowed, without reverb?

Accepted Answer

Use the Audio Speed Changer with Keep the pitch off. It slows the song and lowers the pitch the same way, without adding reverb.

Question 6
