Hi Thanks for the information, Wavesurgeon it is then....
About the MIDI file import thing, 1) How do you do it in Logic? 2) And would one way round the midi file problem be to have all the hits chopped up and then just import one original full length loop of the break in question to the sampler just in case i wanted to have it in its entirety?

I'll probably buy it for SCSI sample transfers between my PC and A3000v2 as its half the price of Recycle and seems to be an equally good programme in terms of the functionality. Since i can't afford Soundforge at �280 and i haven't got the internet at home for 'special versions' of Soundforge, i would have to settle for Recycle if you can convince me its better. Basically, all i want to do is slice up loops hit by hit into ever decreasing smaller parts ending on the last hit of the loop (as Scope helpfully described his Sound Forge method) and send them quickly and simply down to the sampler to a particular key range or single key on my controller keyboard. Does wavesurgeon make it this simple and if not, what programme does? Also, the press release mentions that MIDI files are saved from each waveform that is edited (?) - does this mean that I have to import a MIDI file of each break i edit into Logic to use the system or is this not strictly necessary, or if it is, how does this work (is it the same principle as inserting e.g. pictures into a Word file)? Does Recyle require this? Any ideas would be great, Cheers and a Happy New Year Dan DISCLAIMER: The Information in this message is confidential and may be legally privileged.
