Ceder Square Dance System (CSDS) ==> Music

Tempo change - minimizing the 'skip' #2
If you're in the middle of playing a song and you decide to adjust the tempo, the music "skips". Is there any way to allow seamlessly changing tempo "on the fly"? Perhaps this can be done by sending a series of small tempo adjustments to the Media Player, instead of one big massive adjustment?

This is a problem with the 'Windows Media Player'.

Try using the Winamp player instead. Download and install Winamp 2.x and also the Chronotron II plug-in. Voila! The problem is fixed.

As of CSDS 1.15.00, another music player has been added to CSDS, the 'API Player'. This player uses low-level Windows API messages to control audio output. The skip still exists, but isn't quite so noticable.
