FoundationStone currently must work on a raw audio file (wav and aiff). So, if you have one of the popular MP3 or AAC format files, save it as a 'mono, CD quality WAV'. Many programs do this, one option is Quicktime, but you will need to upgrade to the Pro version (US$30) to be able to export (ie change formats). A free alternative is VideoLan. Here is an example using VideoLan -
Go Media -> Convert/Save...
Click on the "Convert/Save" button...
adjust the settings...
Click on the "Save" button...
Then click on the "Start" button, you're done.
Then Stretch Your WAV file Using FoundationStone
