Wouldn't it be nice? Slicer.

Like in the topic.

Wouldn't you like the slicer to be in Live?

And then you could use your keybord or pad to play those slices like on

mpc...

What you think about that?

Who else thinks that's a good idea?

it would be VERY good, and also I wouldnt ahve thought too hard to implement
Recycle like fucntiosn ie slice a sample, auto map it across Impulse & create a
MIDI file to trigger it as per the timing in the original file....

with the amazing power of LIVE I dont undertand why i still need Recycle
but i do...

it seems like a function that coudl almsot be scripted using existing features in LIVE

Another vote for this. I tend to play more than draw and miss the ability to do so now that I"ve started using Live. I can still slice and dice in Recycle and play in Dr. Rex (Reason), but yeah, the ability for live to do this would make it sooooo less time consuming.

Yes it would be nice to have slicing available within Live. In the meantime, this works great and it's less time consuming since it is a VSTi. I myself used to go the recycle/dr rex/rewire method. Not any more:

phatmatik pro is serving me very well. just got it. highly recommend it as it does exactly what intakt does but uses half the cpu.

Somewhere i have read, how you can do it internally with Live...it was a tip on some german producing magazine, i was skipping articles (i was in a hurry) and missed the point.

But it was something like this: Warp your loop, and drag (???) it to Impulse. You may try it.

As for me i use Reason's Dr. Rex and some refills

Sorry for my stupidity here guys, but what would you like to do exactly? Loop a part of a song a cut away the rest? And then you can instantly play this sample from impulse?

I'm just interested...

DS · Post by DS » Mon Nov 14, 2005 12:42 pm

I don't want to cut the rest.

Just make slices from whole the sample and have It on my keyboard or pad. Just to be able to play those slices. Like on mpc.

Peace.

well in case they never do it, you should check out intakt. it does that easily, my favorite for a 3rd party plug.

but yes, it would be nice, to just split a sample into pieces and then send them to impulse or session slots.
it would be almost the same process as intakt, though integrated.

you mean it automatically cuts ands maps the samples? because otherwise everything you say can be done in live as far as I know...

ben_blue · Post by **ben_blue** » Tue Nov 15, 2005 1:21 pm

yes its just like recycle but better.
u press one button, "beat machine" and it slices the sample and maps it across the keys. also it can export a midi file ala reason's rex player to play back the loop in time.
you can put different effects over each slice, and, have multiple sliced and mapped samples per instance.
