I hope I can explain this clearly....

Is there a way were you can turn a wave file around so it plays the file back to front but NOT reversed?

turn your monitor upside down?

slice it and play the slices in reverse order?

So you want it to play starting from the end and ending at the start?

Um, that's reversing it.

Or do you mean something like phase inversion - swapping over the "top" and "bottom" of the wav? You could do that with the Utility plug.

The only other thing I could think of is slicing your wav to midi, then making your midi notes run from the top of the piano roll to the bottom, playing the last slice first and so forth.


Or as garyboozy suggested, turn your monitor upside down, or failing that turn yourself upside down and keep the monitor where it is

what he said

math: inversion (amplitude) + reversal (time) = rotate 180 degrees. only really useful for raw waveforms though.

alter the start point in the clip and it will start at the correct point and end at the correct point.
