Very happy to see that Transcribe! 8 has been released today 
.
I use this app alot ( everyday in fact ) for my own playing as well as teaching and of course transcribing music *and*, very handily, video!
The new update has tidied up the interface considerably so now pitch shifting, speed control etc. can all be done from the main window. Fab!
If you don’t have a Transcribe! I highly recommend you grab it! It’s available for Mac, Windows and Linux and costs $50.
