ReSlice

If you ever used Recycle back in the day with a hardware sampler you’ll know the basic premise of this app, add in Virsyn ‘s polyrhythmic arpeggiator and FX and you have a quite powerful package, very very useful. One thing that glares out and need changing however is the export facility. Export to files Exports the audio slices only….where’s the midi? Turns out that if you want to export the midi, audio, fxp etc you have to email it to yourself. Why? Why so clunky? Why make the assumption that the user isn’t on the move and has network access to receive the email? I’m on holiday with no Wi-Fi, on the beach, I’ve chopped my break and want to export it and the midi into another app. No can do. Go to wait until I get somewhere with Wi-Fi. Madness! Update 2023, still when you export to files no midi export, just the audio clips. Whyowhyohwhy?…. Also, why can’t you zoom in to get more accurate chops. You can’t get clean chops currently and have to edit them again separately. C’mon. Please!

Not intuitive plays the same one note sounds horrible. Need a refund asap!

Wonderful app great for grabbing found sounds as a basis for very quick rhythmic composition….one HUGE issue… There is currently no way to mute the speaker during live recording When using just the iPad on its own to record…. This leads to a very loud screeching feedback loop when you are trying to record. It would be great if holding down the record button offered up a menu selection like other buttons , where the live output could be muted during the recording phase (obviously this needs to be a toggle option as, if working with an interface and line instruments , this wouldn’t be an issue . I really hope this gets fixed,

What a fantastic app you've made, Virsyn. I am not the brightest button in the cutlery drawer but I got the hang of it almost immediately. Your app then proceeded to make me smile. I will never expect more than that from an app and my musical skills.

It’s great idea but like many of virsyn apps lacking ongoing updates. No velocity is a simple oversight that should of been added long ago.

This is a great app please integrate with audio layer as they would work well together ...

Great app. Nice for experimental random finds. Some features that would make it 5 stars - Global transpose of a playing arpeggo via keyboard. Latch keyboard notes, so can add/remove notes without current difficulties for this. Currently you have to try to hold all held notes when adding or removing. Sometimes impossible with only 2 hands... Import/export via Files app. Global slices options for note length etc so can adjust all slices simultaneously. Been a while but really hoping these features find there way in to ReSlice. It feels like a bit of a missed opportunity without them..

Yes, you can definitely use it within tracks but personally I use ReSlice more as an audio utility, slicing loops and resamples for later use. It’s perfect for this. This interface is simple and easy to navigate, and the import and export options work well. Incredibly useful app.

no support for iphone X

Hey, ReSlice is great! Your able to chop up samples of various lengths and play them in any order. This is the first (I've) been able to do this easily on iOS. So for example you could turn a drum loop into a drum kit. Or chop some vocals for a remix. Or have the Arp do some random stuff till you like it. Etc etc.. There is so much scope here, too much to mention. Now with choke, you could even use it MPC style, you could before, but now it's easier. When you open this app for the first time and play around, all sorts of possibilities present themselves. I haven't been able to do certain things since desktop, now I can. Well established developers who are on it. I see this app as an instant-classic. Bought it from day one. It was/is one of those missing pieces (not too many missing now). Buy n enjoy! King
