I used several of the planet applications in a real-time concert
situation. Latency was so good I didn't get many xrun errors or dropouts
and I had a multi channel thirty minutes piece in one part and a twenty
minute stereo synthesis piece in the other. In particular I think that
jack makes a whole's world difference.

I think Julius Smith's resample command line program might do a very
good job, but is nor real-time. Things might get relly creative if you
try Juan Pampin's AMS as part of clm. Resample and CLM part of
planetCCRMA.

At planet I also came across with PVC which is a good phase vocoder and
spectral command line tools. But speaking of GUIs SND has a time
compression-expansion tool built in its effects bars which you should
try. But no guarantee since most of these tools are not formant based
spectral manipulators.
