    Does anyone know if ReSlice is essentially a superset of AudioEffx? Looks like all the FXs are included in ReSlice, and since that's an AU too, do you need AudioEffx if you have ReSlice?

    Reslice doesn't accept audio input as an AU. Also. You cannot insert it in the effect slot. So no. You cannot use it as a replacement for AudioEffx.

    Ah, I see, don't have either yet, but was more tempted by ReSlice, but sounds like for FX AudioEffx is the way to go. Thanks for the explanation :)

    keep in mind that for some odd reason AudioEffx doesn't expose its parameters for automation or midi mapping when used as an AUx. not yet anyways.

    Question to our ReSlice experts:
    Can I somehow extract the timing of a non-straight-sixteenth-note groove like e.g. a Brazilian Samba percussion loop?
    Something like drag-and-drop MIDI or MIDI export or a mechanism inside ReSlice to swap slices but keep them playing with the same original groove?

  • zeropointzeropoint

    I couldn’t find a way to export the midi with the slices but you can email the midi file to yourself separately.

    That would be cool. Send the suggestion to VirSyn. You never know what might get his attention.

    Thanks, so in other words it's not supported (yet)?

    100% :D

    BM3 does this perfectly. Slice up a sample using transients, then slice to pads with "create pattern" enabled. You get a pattern that plays back the slices in order (each slice is a "note"). Then you can mangle that order any way you like, and do all kinds of other creative things with it.

    Thanks. Yep, BM3 does it very well and it's certainly the best slicer that can also record. The reason I asked was my hope to have something like Stockholm in Nanostudio and ReSlice looked like a good candidate but I'm using a lot of "real life grooves" that are not quantized to 16th notes. Now I just found that exporting a sliced and mangled track from Gadget to NS2 via AudioShare is fairly straightforward so I guess that's the solution for now.

    One could even use Slate pads for slices as it has start offset adjustment per pad and an AHDSR envelope which is perfect for isolating slices but doing all this manually is a real p.i.t.a.

    Yep, I would love to see this feature in AudioLayer. It's been a mind blowing thing ever since I first saw it in Fruity Slicer years ago. I was thrilled to see it in BM3. But I would rather have it in a plugin.

    AudioLayer hasn't gotten any significant feature updates for a long time, so I'm not holding my breath.

  • klownshedklownshed

    I was wondering if reslice could do that to.

    I think propellerheads recycle was the first to do the sample slicing by transients thing. Back in the day you’d slice a sample on a Mac and send it back to a hardware sampler via SCSI to play it back in your midi sequencer.

    I used it a lot just to ‘steal the feel’ and use the midi as a groove template in Logic on programmes drums. Worked a treat.

    Hmmm

    maybe…

    Photon AU - Midi Recorder with Pad playback & Groove

    NOTE: You need a suitable host to run this AUv3 midi app (eg AUM, Audiobus, apeMatrix, Cubasis etc). The standalone version is for the manual & file import.

    Record your midi performances (from a keyboard, sequencer or arpeggiator) using this audio unit in your DAW then save/export them as standard midi files via email or directly to other apps.

    Load midi files using Airdrop (uses the standalone version) & select your track to import in the AU version.

    Up to six pads can be loaded with midi file data & played back with variations in transposition, loudness, tempo, parts defined as start/duration

    You can also load a midi file as a Groove file to allow it to replace midi timing or velocity in your recorded/loaded midi file thereby conforming your buffer midi to the groove pattern (eg trancegate effects)

    Most controls automated as AU Parameters (quick record, pad controls, pad playback etc)

    Full 29 page Manual available here http://amssoftware.org/manual/PhotonManual.pdf

    @audiblevideo Thanks, sounds interesting although my question rather was "how do I get the MIDI from the groovy loop I'd like to use"?

    @wim, @klownshed Audio Loop > ReCycle > Stockholm in Gadget is still my workflow today, nothing has changed since 20 years except that I can use the REX loops with all information on the iPad now, with the same separation of MIDI and audio slices. I could even grab the groove MIDI file and use it with a drum module or with a completely different REX loop, changing the sound but retaining the groove.
    No Stylus RMX, no Reason, no other REX player required.

    Maybe there's a genius way to use the slicing info from BM3?
    Being able to do everything on the iPad would be even more fun of course :)

  • wimwim

    You could slice to pads/pattern in BM3, then either export the MIDI file or play the midi out into another app.
