SAVING AND EXPORTING

Saving ReCycle

Documents

If you have opened an audio file and worked on the slices and other settings, you

can save it as a ReCycle (REX2) document.

Saving is done using the regular “Save” and “Save As” commands.

ReCycle files can be opened just like regular audio files (see page

26).

One difference is that no analysis needs to be performed, since the analysis

data is already included in the file.

ReCycle files have the extension “.rx2”.

The ReCycle document will include all settings made in Preview

mode as well as the actual audio data.

These include:

• All the slice points and their status (locked, muted etc.).

• All real-time processing features, like tempo, pitch settings, Stretch amount

etc.

• Any applied offline processing like Normalize etc.

Export Options

On the Process menu, you will find two Export settings (or “options”); ”Export as

One Sample” and “Silence Selected”. These options can also be toggled on or

off using the two Export Option buttons on the Toolbar:

Export as One Sample has no effect on playback in ReCycle. Si-

lence Selected, however, can be auditioned in Preview mode.

Each document has its own settings.

If you are working with a lot of windows, be sure to check that the settings

are correct before you Export. The settings are also saved to disk with the

file when you Save.

Export as One Sample

Deactivated

When Export As One Sample is turned off, the audio gets sliced into individual

samples when exported, and the MIDI files created will contain one note for

each of those slices.

! This is the preferred mode if you want to use your MIDI sequencer

to edit the loop, change its tempo or use the MIDI file as a groove.

Activated

When Export As One Sample is turned on, the program will save/export the part

that stretches from the Left Locator to the Right as one sample. Also, in this

mode, the MIDI File will only consist of one event, with the length set using the

Bars and Beats settings.

When should Export as one Sample be Activated?

One obvious application of exporting as one sample (as opposed to separate

slices) is when you simply want to change the properties (like pitch and/or

tempo) of an audio file without otherwise changing it. Say you have an audio file

(Wave, Aiff etc.) that you wish to use in a song. The problem is that the tempo

and/or the pitch of the file is wrong for the song, and you wish to fix this. The so-
