[halp] slice audio, render slices to disk.

can someone help me out with this…

how do i automagically slice up a wav and render the
individual slices to disk?
doing it by hand is out of question, i need very small,
grainy slices. it's in the hundreds per source file.

obvious? :?

sorry, don't know a way to do it non-manually.

why don't you just drop the source file in the project
itself and slice it up in there, without rendering it all
first?

or slice it all up and save the project as a template, if
you want to use the samples in multiple songs

i have used it for ages , but it chops up a wav in to
pieces, you can select the chops too, then you export.

yeah i think that's what he's trying to avoid, because he'd
have to export tons of them (hundreds per source file he
says)

there is the autmate slice fuction ? sensitivity
threashold.

or if your really desperate set up a mouse automation script
....perform a slice on your sequencer via mouse record this
operation ...then repeat the script thousands of times
whilst you go and play table tennis with a friend.

^ haha!

apparently it's not possible in Ableton Live…

i don't need the samples to be in any DAW, they'll be loaded
into a Java app to be triggered. also i don't need any
transient detection… just splitting into even grains.
this crappy software does it, but the minimum sample length is one
second which is huge…. .

This can be done in Logic. Using the scissors tool, hold
option to Divide Multiple. So if one slices off the
beginning at 1/4 bar, it will slice the whole audio file
into 1/4 bar regions. Then select all the chopped regions
and right-click "Convert to New Audio File(s)". Every
sliced bit will be exported as an individual audio file.

Oh, good find. Can it declick the slices too? Like ramp
in/out the first and last few samples in a slice?

dunno, i've just posted my question here and used
that person's script mostly. But as SoX has direct sample
access, it should be possible to write a ramp script if it's
not already built in...
