Tip: The Extract MIDI Region and Add Samples to Current Instrument command also allows you
to add the slices of a ReCycle loop to any sampler instrument currently opened in the Instrument
Editor. This allows you to use several different ReCycle loops in a single sampler instrument.
Assign a complete ReCycle loop to a zone
mm
Choose Instrument > ReCycle Convert > Slice Loop and Make New Instrument to create a
sampler instrument from a ReCycle loop.
Each slice is chromatically mapped across the keyboard—from low to high notes.
Each zone plays back the ReCycle loop to the end point, at the current project tempo. This
means that the lowest zone plays back the entire loop, but the highest zone plays only the last
slice of the loop. Notes between the lowest and highest zones play several slices. This allows for
drum’n’bass-style note triggering, where the sample loop start point is determined by playing
the respective notes on the keyboard.
If you want to add zones from the sliced loop to the currently active sampler instrument, you can
choose Instrument > ReCycle Convert > Slice Loop and Add Samples to Current Instrument.
Paste ReCycle loops from the Clipboard
You can generate a MIDI region from imported ReCycle files. These regions trigger the imported
slices at the timing defined by the ReCycle files.
mm
Choose Edit > Paste ReCycle Loop as New Instrument to create a sampler instrument from a
ReCycle loop that was copied to the Clipboard using ReCycle’s Copy Loop feature.
Instrument creation is identical to the Extract MIDI Region and Make New Instrument command.
If you want to add zones to the currently active sampler instrument, you can choose Edit > Paste
ReCycle Loop to Current Instrument.
Generate a new MIDI region from a ReCycle instrument
You can generate a MIDI region from imported ReCycle files. These regions trigger the imported
slices at the timing defined by the ReCycle files.
mm
Choose Instrument > ReCycle Convert > Extract Region(s) from ReCycle Instrument.
MIDI regions are created on the currently selected track, at the current project position, rounded
to bars. A single MIDI region is generated for each imported ReCycle loop in the currently open
instrument. You will also need to enter a velocity factor (see “Create a new sampler instrument
and assign each ReCycle slice to a zone”).
