If the track is done in the standard western, well-tempered 12 tone scale (A=440Hz), and most idm is, then it is only in tune at one speed or the other. To figure out the right speed, you need either perfect pitch OR a good ear and a synth tuned to A=440Hz (if you lack hardware, there are free software synths out there that will do the trick). You should be able to pick out the base note of whatever key the track is in (it's not like idm has key changes) at either one speed or the other, but not both. It won't always work w/ Vibert, he seems to be tone deaf, or just too damn lazy to pitch shift his samples - hard to say. Che
