yeah i checked out recycle yesterday, pretty cool program, but for precise cutting and ease of use i like soundforge. i just need to mess with the envelopes more.
i use the fade function but it generally leaves an annoying click where i used the fade, so i am kinda staying away form that for a while.
i cut a song up with recycle and just cut it into literally 200 samples, and just went through and loaded up the ones i thought sounded kinda cool, and did a beat with those. turned out rather odd. very different. but i think i like soundforge a little bit better, different programs though.
