raises hand

loves it

can't live without it

the key is to get your beats at the tempo you want them at first (in LIVE)

then import into Recycle and set your tempo to the tempo of your loop

ok

now turn on the grid and zoom in and adjust the markers to taste

export as a rex and in slices

import your rex into Dr. Rex, Battery or import the slices into Sampler or Impulse - get jiggy

peace

ReCycle absolutely fuckin' rules. Can't live without it either!

I concur with the above. Highly recommended. Even if you don't have a rx2 player you can find a use for it.

It's good for diddling with the attacks and transients of your loops via it's slice dynamics.

I don't use Reason anymore, but I will NEVER sell my Recycle license.

nice Program, although i don t know if i would buy it now, cause it s kind of
expensive and does not so much you couldn t achive similar in Live

BUT!: If you have it, don t forget you can also export as soundfont, which
you can directly use with Sampler, which is lot s of fun.

I recommend just to slice a few of your Drumloops and export as soundfont
and midifile.

Open soundfont with Sampler, tweak a bit and you ve got nice and unique
Drumkits real fast.

If you re one of the folks who call for a slicer in Live - this will make you happy
if you own Sampler (or perhaps an other Softsampler which supports soundfonts)

No need for it, since I got Phatmatik Pro

Couldn't be happier.

The difference in cutting in ableton as opposed to Recycle is you can stretch the ends so it's not such an abrupt break when you rearrange your loops - it can sound somewhat crossfaded

I do agree - Recycle is retardly expensive for what it does

$199 <-- that's a lot

I do have recycle and i use it sometimes.But i think with live you don't need it.
Maybe yes if it was not to expensive.

I concur.

I have been using recycle since 1.0

I recently stopped and use phatmatic pro.

I considered getting Phatmatik Pro but I use Reason and Stylus RMX and both can make use of REX files.

I get the best of both worlds because I can use the REX file from Recycle in the Dr. Rex player in Reason or I can import the REX file into RMX and I have some of the best effects around available to me to apply with RMX.

Because of my workflow with Reason and RMX, it was any easy decision to get Recycle

I love Recycle!
Although if I didn't already spend the money on it, I'd go with phatmatic pro

Also my MPC's chop shop does a similar function although not as intuitive

Yea recycle is very useful, especially for extracting sample hits out of long(well, up to 5 minutes) audio recordings, ie field recordings/oldscool sample discs. My main beef with recycle and all of propellerheads products is i have to constantly re-register all the @$#@ing time, its so annoying, everytime i want to use recycle it asks for the disk and put the registration in...wtf is up with that
