i played with fruity once and did some radical things with a pitch shifter / scratching tool in it ... cant' remember what the quality was like but it wasn't too limiting or anything.

shame waves haven't uped the range on their new tool. someone should write to them and tell 'em to sort it out :)

actually the serato one has been around for a while, you could find a copy of that from 'somewhere' and use it with PT free or something maybe? not as good as an integrated one but might work...
