Been using FF for many years and never knew about J K L. Thanks for that!

A Reaper tutorial wo Kenny, just doesn't feel right.

The Youtube speed setting won't help them much. Their algorithm is rather silly, and a 75% speed setting might have worked better than straight 50%, which is the next speed down from 100%.

I'd probably download them and use a decent media player, or indeed Reaper itself . You get a great choice of playback algorithms there. I recommend "Elastique 2.28 Soloist" set to "Speech". Right-click on the PLAYRATE slider and have it preserve the pitch, and you're off to the races.

The Close Captions in Youtube work well on these videos. Another good option for anyone having trouble understanding everything.

Another tip. On Windows in the Firefox browser(probably Chrome and all others too), use the J , K and L keys to REWIND 10 seconds, pause/play and FASTWORWARD 10 seconds.
