HOW TO SLOW DOWN THE SPEED OF A SONG IN LOGIC

hey whats up everyone?
I have a quick and simple question that I am getting too many answers to.
How do you slow down or speed up the speed of an audio file in logic?
I am having trouble with this however this is very simple in other products.
Please let me know if you can answer my question.

PS I am not talking about manipulating the tempo, I am talking about SPEEDING UP THE AUDIO FILE

Thanks!

Macbook, Mac OS X (10.5.6), N/A

Hi,

set the audio file where you want it to start.

Grab the end of the Region holding down ALT. By dragging it shorter or longer, it will speed up or slow down while the tempo of the song remains the same.

You can also so this with time&pitch machine in sample editor, f you want to go deeper into the details&sound quality.
