At least, that's what my girlfriend called it. Hit some buttons before leaving for work and this came out. Hope you enjoy it!

Just fantastic work, man. Thanks for including all the loops that you did - I'm a total home noodler and this is just fantastic amounts of fun.

Thanks guys...hell, I love that cut-up sleazy funk sound, clubs or no! (My girlfriend said the same thing. I know people who know some club owners, I'm going to see if I can get 10 or 15 minutes one night between DJs.)

Edit: the whole thing is Pd. It's surprising how far you can get with samples and a metro.

I usually just use number boxes and snapshot~s for debugging...

I think sysex out only works on Linux...not certain though.

Rad!

It might be worthwhile to cop Freecycle's beat detection code as a Pd external.

Gosh, and I was having such a good time with it.

It sounds like you're trying to combine an analog sequencer with a chopchop style program as well as lots of timestretching and transposition subpatches - I think you might be better of just buying Recycle if that's what you want.

Edit: if you're not looking to spend any money, there's always Freecycle:

Right, OK, but is that what you had in mind? I'm trying to figure out what you mean by slicer.

I've written one that's almost identical to ixi software's "Slicer" application:

Is that what you're thinking of?

Check out the samples that MSP includes with the Pd distribution. There is one demoing the FFT stuff that has an excellent timestretcher in it. You can adjust the averaging window it uses to stretch and interpolate - I usually have it set to a 2000 sample window.

Ah, the file you want is I07.phase.vocoder.pd in the doc/3.audio.examples/ directory from the source .tar.gz file!
