## What is ReSlice?

Audio Slice Machine

Slice your audio samples with ReSlice and create flexible musical atoms which can be triggered by MIDI notes or the touch of your fingers.

The polyrhythm Arpeggiator redefines the art of creating new loops from the extracted slices.

Record live or import audio from clipboard or AudioShare to break it up into its rhythmic components.

Apply the intelligent slice parameter and Arpeggio randomizer for instant creation of the unheard.

“Always creative - always cutting edge.
The team at VirSyn has a steady stream of cool apps that they release. They are always pushing iOS music creation possibilities to new and interesting territory! 
It's a really fun to be able to quickly slice up sound and shift the slices around like this. I love the randomization features as well. With the touch of the dice one can create really surprising and interesting sonic experiences. Jordan Rudess Wizdom Music/Dream Theater”

### 3/5 — Used to love it but…

*2025-02-19*

…It feels neglected by the dev, if I’m being honest.

1) Documentation please! There’s nothing in the way of a manual explaining anything.

2) Better State Recall:

- Add capability to save FX rack configuration -  active FX sequence + settings/state recall.

- Cannot save general preset while in arp edit mode (as opposed to arp pattern presets.)

3) It crashes in Aum w Koala sending MIDI to it.

4) Possible to have overlay of filename for sample currently loaded so I know what I’m working with?

5) Where do session recording wav files get cached? Cannot locate a folder where they live.

6) When saving a session recording (not sample input recording) after you’ve saved an initial recording, the text field and text are black, and cursor position [which is located at end of persisting value for last name entered] is only thing visible on entire screen. 

7) BPM automatically assigned to name is wrong (value shown is -1 of the bpm, so for example 130bpm becomes 139bpm.)

8) Tempo Control [Arp view > Arp tab] should have double-tap input field (in addition to existing tempo dial, which is incredibly tiny and finicky.)

If even half of these were addressed I’d happily change review back to 5 stars, but at this point I’m actively looking for other slicers.

### 2/5 — Reslice, Recycle with added spice

*2023-10-26*

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!

### 1/5 — Need a refund

*2023-10-11*

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

### 3/5 — Plantages

*2023-01-28*

Cette app est géniale mais depuis aujourd’hui j’ai des messages : « l’extension audio unit s’est fermée » dans garageband et si je clique sur recharger ça refait pareil :(
There is a bug i can’t use it anymore a little help or update would be apreciated. I have message «  audio unit extension closed » and can’t open it again in my project

### 4/5 — One BIG flaw -please fix

*2022-09-16*

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,

### 4/5 — Missing dice

*2020-11-04*

Warum gibt es keinen Würfel beim Slice-Reiter für die iPhone-Version?

### 5/5 — When I see Virsyn, I click Buy

*2020-09-07*

I’m a simple man; when I see a new Virsyn app, I buy it. I have created a very cool song by accident with this app. If you need inspiration for a song, play with this app and you could create a chef-d’œuvre like I did :)

### 3/5 — So much potential

*2020-07-17*

Great slicer but let down with no scrolling cursor.
PLEASE ADD SCROLLING CURSOR WHEN PLAYING SLICES SO WE CAN IDENTIFY WHERE TO MAKE EDITS

### 5/5 — Great fun!

*2020-06-28*

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.
