Hello David,
I have been using Adobe Audition for the last ten years as the software to
record/edit/clean and do many other things.
However, Audacity (a free software) also does all that.
With Adobe Audion I can slow down a song (keeping the same pitch) or change
pitch (by half tones).
I have transferred hundreds of songs from cassettes to my PC/Laptop just by
playing the cassette in a portable cassette player or a cassette deck and
attaching its "line out" to the "line in" of my computer using a cable. You
then open your software, select the record source and record - thats it !
You can also record your harmonica, if you want - even create your own
multi-track recordings.
After recording a song you can remove the tape hiss or any noise using the
software.
If you have any questions just send me an email.
Gautam

I'd be grateful for any advice about software and/or hardware I'm looking
for. Ideally, I'd appreciate recommendations for what to get and where to
find it.
(1) Software (or hardware for that matter) that will slow down recorded
music without changing the pitch, making it easier to decipher when trying
to transcribe it or learn it by ear.
(2) A piece of equipment and any related software by which I can
transfer music from cassette tape to a computer or directly to CD.
Thanks,
David
