You need a time-stretching tool http://breakfastquay.com/rubberband/ :
"Rubber Band Library is in use in [snip] open-source applications
including Ardour digital audio workstation, the SooperLooper live
looping sampler, the StretchPlayer audio player and the QTractor
sequencer. You can also find it in Breakfast Quay's own Rubber Band
Audio Processor.
