Freesound Forums

I have been using recycle to cut my samples, and of course reason to sequence most of them. There are several other sites that offer free downloads of REX files but those sites don't appear to get much traffic in terms of new additions etc.

My question is, would it be possible to support REX format here? Perhaps someone has suggested this before?

What are the complications or drawbacks?

Has there been any talk of supporting other sampler formats besides rex?

thanks

I've never heard of a REX format...the obvious drawback is exactly that...no-one has heard of it so no-one would be able to use it...i shall investigate

It's the main sample format for reason...for starters.

Dr.REX is a device in Propellerhead's Reason for playing back REX2 music loops created with ReCycle (also developed by Propellerhead Software). The device lets you play back individual sections from the loop sequenced as if they were notes, it also includes the ability to automatically put down the whole loop on the sequencer window. It will let you change various things about the overall sound such as modulation and oscillation, but you can also change the pitch, pan and various other settings of individual samples in a loop, making the format even more flexible.
