I use Dartpro 24 http://www.dartpro.com    .This software allows you to 
choose sample rate for recording and adjust speed to correct. It will slow 
down a recording substantially if desired, with no ill effects. You "adjust 
sample rate" to correct the speed, then "resample" to 44100 standardize the 
format. I can supply the formulii to adjust speed for various labels if 
desired -Mickey
