Im trying to made Slicer like a fruity slicer and got stock on chopping, cant really do that in sample.

Sorry for dump question I'm only on day three of studying. I've been searching for any information about "making slicer experience", didnt find anything really. Could someone help with chopping? I even was asking gpt but this guy not really good at HISE

@HarveySmith really dont know Fruity Slicer at all but you can set up an AudioLoop Player to use an offset (percentage).Combine this with a defined playback time for your note and you get a "slice" of the audio loop.

You will have to define your slice positions (as a percentage of the whole loop) and the playback times (as miliseconds) outside your product and then use them as a lookup table in HISE.

I did something similar with this:

Elitist Loop | Modern Vocal Hook Generator | Music Software Instruments | Sound Effects | Professional Audio | Ava Music Group

Elitist Loop is a modern vocal engine that features 480+ unique vocal chops. Choose from over 250 premade loops. Change rhythm and pitch in just one click. With highly customizable features and endless combinations to choose from, ELITIST gives you vocals you won’t hear on anyone else’s track.

@Lindon thank u, I’ll try. Fruity Slicer that’s stock and really simple Slicer in FL

[HarveySmith]

I mostly want to make simple vst where u can chop samples on slices like Serato Sampler

@HarveySmith That's an interesting one -

"Fruity Slicer uses beat detection to slice a wave file into pieces and make them independently playable from the Piano roll or from a controller. If the wave file contains slice/region data this will be automatically used instead of beat-detection. Fruity Slicer offers playback, reordering of slices and time-stretching capabilities optimized for drum loops."

So if I'm correct, it divides up the signal into chunks depending on the tempo and note value, and then resequences them as you play in MIDI?

You could do that in HISE but it'll be tricky, you'd need to script getting the tempo, doing the maths on the length of note values in ms, 1/8th=120ms for example, and then somehow assign these as playable samples(?) and script cycling through them or triggering them at random with MIDI I guess?
I have no idea how to do transient/beat detection in HISE but I'd bet it's possible.

Would be a real cool project, especially if you've got some experience already.

Its pretty tricky to do actually. I found that simply dividing the loop up into (say)1/16ths and displaying this to the user and letting them move the beat onset points around is much simpler...

[LozPetts]

@Lindon Yeah that would be how I would do it too - I did see someone post a snippet for a basic transient designer a while back, OP could potentially use that as a starting point - certainly above my experience level at the moment!

yeah I found that the transient designers I could come up with were nowhere near accurate - either too many or too few hits...no matter how much tweaking I did. So in the end its way easier to divide the loop into a strict 1/16th grid ( alot of transients are going to be on that any way) and let the user shift/remove/add transient tags as they wish.

[HarveySmith]

@LozPetts damn, it’s harder then I expected but HISE actually really interesting so I’ll try to go more into it, thank u very much for answer

[HarveySmith]

@Lindon thank u for answer, do u know if HISE community have something like discord channel?

something like discord channel

Someone made a discord channel but it didn't really take off. This forum is the place to be.

[HarveySmith]

@Lindon that’s exactly what I want to do, I don’t want to make Sample being cut by tempo, I want to cut it in same size slices

[AxiomCrux]

@Lindon woah this is rad, love your site too, I am curious where you got your audio player for the demo tracks, I love the elegant clean minimalist / soundcloud integration and the product looks and sounds great, I'd totally buy something like this :D

well if you are talking about Elitist loop - then it's not my site - it's my clients site. I just built the product for them.

@Lindon you killed that!

thanks it was a bit of a PITA but I got it sorted after a couple of weeks, so now I know how to do it ...was thinking about doing a "3 circles" version at some point....

@Lindon
I cant wait to see what THAT does!
