ReCycle - the exclamation mark was dropped with version 2 - was a resounding success and it’s still available today. Initially a monophonic format, REX2 added stereo support. Called a REX file, it quickly became a standard format for beat-oriented hardware and software. ReCycle! supported many file types, but had its own, too. Used in conjunction with the individual slices, this gave users the power to alter the timing of the project and/or rearrange the slices to create variations on the beat. These segments could then be moved around in time, retaining their original integrity.įurthermore, ReCycle! could generate a MIDI file based on the slices’ original positions.
Rather than using any sort of time compression or expansion to destructively alter the audio file, ReCycle! worked by detecting the various drum hits in the loop and chopping it into individual segments.
