foss audio slowdowner? (lemmy.ml)

I'm looking for an audio app for learning tunes by ear. Ideally would have:

1- slow playback, without adjusting pitch.
2- loop selection - to play a segment of the audio over and over
3- pitch adjustment (some old recordings are out of tune)

Anyone have one they like? For android the closest I've found is Fossify music player, which offers feature 1.

For PC, audacity has all these features, but its pretty clunky to use.

Looks like you can adjust playback speed. But I don't see where you can adjust pitch, nor do I see where you can select a section of a song for looping.

Section looping:

  1. right click on the bottom bar (where play and pause is)
  2. view
  3. checkbox Advanced Controls
  4. Now you see more buttons in the bottom bar one of which has the tooltip "Loop from point A to point B"
  5. Click it at start and again at end of the section

Pitch:

  1. in the top bar click "Tools"
  2. Effects and Filters
  3. Audio Effects
  4. Advanced
  5. Adjust pitch
