how do I listen to a recording in higher speed

This was very helpful, but I have a followup question:

I'm using this to log information for interviews and I want to be able to listen faster, but I need to use time markers for the regular speed. When I change the temp, it also changes the time markers (instead of just increasing the speed and leaving the time the same, it shows what the time is now reduced to). Is there a way to account for this? Or do you two versions of the audio up or something--one with the normal time corresponding to the sped up time?

Thanks!

I don't have any voice memos but I don't believe I have ever heard anybody mention that feature before.

Hi there! I don't think you can do this on iTunes anymore (I may be wrong) BUT there is this simple solution using garageband:

1. Open garageband and call a new document "Lecture 1" or something like that. Drag the recording into the space it gives you, and it will upload
2. Double click the track to bring up a menu, and make sure "Follow Tempo & Pitch" is ticked.
3. 
4. Next, after that is ticked, at the bottom of the screen go to "Project" by clicking on the little icon in the blue screen. It will look like the picture below. Click on the tempo (In the picture you click where it says 120) and you can slide the speed up and down! ENJOY! Hope this helps 🙂 😀
