Software to loop and change tempo (slrpnk.net)

I'm trying to learn to play some folk tunes on mandolin. I'm looking for some software that will let me loop sections and change tempo (without changing pitch). To help learn by ear, i want repetition and then slowly build up speed.

I thought Audacity would do it but it looks like it is lacking the real-time component (or at least seems to be in its infancy) unless there's something i'm missing?

Thanks for that, i expected something a bit more lightweight, but i suppose its a fairly niche use case.

Will put out some feelers for a code

if you want to get in the weeds, you could write a Max patch to do that pretty easily, and it has a free trial. Maybe too much of a learning curve but if you're looking to write it yourself I'd give it a look.
