REX files .rx2, .rcy or .rex REX files are created in another Propellerheads application, the ReCycle loop editor.
REX files contain audio loops chopped into slices, with one slice for each significant
beat in the loop.
REX files can be imported to Audio Tracks in Reason and are automatically converted
to audio files. By loading a REX file into the Dr. Octo Rex Loop Player device, you can
play back the loop in virtually any tempo (without affecting the pitch), manipulate indi-
vidual beats in the loop, extract timing info, etc.
Note that you can also load REX files into the samplers, the Redrum drum machine and
Kong Drum Designer.
Audio files and Samples .wav, .aif, mp3 etc. Audio files of various formats, resolutions and sample rates can be imported to Audio
Tracks in Reason. All sampler devices in Reason can also load and play back samples
and audio files in these formats. You can use files of different formats in the same de-
vice - one drum sound can be an 8-bit sample, the next a 16-bit sample, etc.
