Adobe Audition allows correction as a single value for the entire file 
or continuously over the file. It allows adjustment of pitch and tempo 
either independently or together. I have used it only for constant 
correction, so cannot say how the functions combine, but at worst one 
would re-record through TotalRecorder or equivalent.

Note that adjusting pitch or tempo without the other can usually be 
detected if the change is more than about 10% or a full tone.
