I also struggled to find a basic freeware slicer, same with granular samplers. These two seem hard to come by, unless I’m looking in all the wrong places..

Here’s a couple of options:
-Momentum by Big Fish Audio
-MPC beats DAW. You can use the DAW as a VST inside of most (all?) DAWs, and it has awesome sampler/slicing abilities. Not the lightest option though.

This is amazing.
Will definitely get the full version when I get the cash to spare.
It works nicely with other glitchy software too.
Thanks:)

Will try it, but I did not see any mention of MIDI?
I am looking for something ultra basic: I just want ot be able to quickly play my “slices” with midi notes, and move the “slices” points… I don’t need any fx, multi lines, etc… I am sure this must exist as a nice freeware somewhere?

Wow! Playing around on the free version for the past 30 mins, it’s definitely one of the most powerful and intuitive slicer/sample manipulator tools I’ve tried – and I think I’ve tried almost all of them at this point. The fact that this is the free version is kind of mind boggling but I guess that’s what Hy is all about.

I purchased Slicer 1 a while back and I’m sure I’ll end up buying the full version of this as well but definitely don’t sleep on the free version! It packs some heat.

Thanks for the heads-up on this and all the new gadgets BPB and thanks to Hy for always exceeding expectations and making their tools available for folks who don’t have the cash to buy! Cheers!
