I use ReCycle, but can you be more specific with your problem.

 

[soulscientific]

my specific problem is cutting up the loops. When I cut some loops up the sound of the loop is jagged and doesn't work in different tempos. Im realizing though, that some loops are going to be like that anyway.

In fact, most of the loop will sound like that way, exept sometimes drums... Recycle doesn't stretch the sound so if you slow it down gaps will apear. You can hide this by applying a bit of the "stretch" button (it's not really stretching, recycle puts sounds in the gaps so they are less there). Or just don't slow down loops or use an app that stretch loop like Acid or Live.

yo thanks dnt, stretching the sound has helped me out

Another thing you can do is to try and lower the pitch of the whole loop. That makes the sounds longer and also a lot of stuff sounds better in the lower ranges.

If ya gonna be cuttin loops, I suggest go with Soundforge man! I started using that when I began beat-makin' and has stood behind it ever since. Possibly the best wav editor to date!

ni intakt has a real time timestretching feature that will possibly allow you to do this. i only tried it at the store the other week and it was quite promising.

if you don't make enough hit spots it will be very choppy. You should increase the sen. to make more sections in the sample.

i'm glad yall mentioned this about recycle. i been using soundforge and i was advised to use recycle (primarily because i can get ahold of alot of sample that are in Rex. file format) i did notice on recycle you have the ability to adjust the BPM. that would be my main concern as far as a soft sampler, the timestreching abilities and EQ abilities. holla back with any advice, tips, suggestions, recoemmendations, etc. peace.

Realistically any wave editer will do tho if yer simply tryin to cut a loop instead of seperate tha sounds by tha slice algorythems in recycle....Shit, i use a free prgm to cut mine still called audacity...that shit works perfect for me....then i dump it into recycle later to better edit my samples and seperate tha sounds and parts more accurately.
