Best time-stretching plugin?

[Virgil.]

Does anyone know of any good (preferably Mac compatible and Free) time-stretching plugins that won't automatically alter the pitch? Something similar to the Paul's Extreme Sound Stretch program, but available as a plugin. Or something similar to the Elastic Audio Plugin in Protools? I'm using Reaper, so I can't use Elastic Audio obviously.

Any recommendations?

Hold alt and drag the edge of the media item (the icon will change to a hand grabing the item)

i've gotten some good results with Waves time shifter on several different instruments and scream vocals

Just make sure to go under Project Settings and change the default pitch shift mode to Elastique 2.1 Pro for the best results too and you're set.

Awesome, thanks for the recommendations! I may have to wait on the Waves suggestion until I'm a millionaire and can afford it. ;P

i bought it back with it was 40% off, but you can still get it for under a million dollars.

Thanks Brian. I still can't afford $500. I could maybe swing $50 right now, but that's all. lol. I was just looking for a plugin for convenience. I guess I'll just use the Paul's Extreme Sound Stretch program for now and export it as a wav and import it into my daw. Kind of a pain in the ass if I want to tweak the time stretch, but it's free.

I think the prosoniq timefactory time stretching sounds the best. Especially across multitrack material. Seems to maintain the phase relationship very well.
