you know when you chop a sample up and you click hella times on different chops to just mess around?

what if you could hook a midi controller directly up to recycle and assign each chop to a midi note?

i think that would be dope to just mess around on/find your chop points better.
it would be a real musical way of chopping.

I know its a different DAW, but if I remember correctly you can do that in FL Studio with Fruity Slicer. I think. If you have FL, or can get a copy, you could rewire it into Reason (never used Recycle or Reason, but that's where Recycle is right?).

agreed.. would be real nice...

my main feature i desire in recycle tho,,, would be the ability to highlight a section, trim the start and end points, and "chop into 16 pieces" or whatever.. would make the process soooo much better... then you can fine tune ur chops, a la jjos

peace

ill have to check into this, so you can plug in a midi controller using standalone mode and then export each slice as a seperate .wav file?

this would be dope, your talking about the chop mode in jjos correct? or are you talking about the other chopper in there?

it kind of makes me angry that you cant really delete stuff from recycle, like the silence at the beginning of the song.
i also feel it is very mouse oriented and that takes off from my workflow. the key commands should be customizable as well, i hate having to hold command + 1, then command + 4 to change from the "click listen" to the "drop a sample marker"

the command button and the numerical keypads are just soo far away from eachother. i think they shoudl have made it shift z through v or something instead.

but i am liking recycle more and more.

****edit i just went into recycle and noticed that i did chop off the silence at the start, so i guess recycle can do this. lol. i just need to figure out how to again.
