Initial SliceLoop Slicer & Sampler.
Slice, rearrange, and create new beats instantly with our advanced loop slicing engine. Comes with over 300 loops and beatstarters — plus a built-in sequencer and effects rack.
The ultimate loop slicer.
Initial Slice is a loop slicer and sampler that lets you load audio loops and slice them into parts — then rearrange those slices to create new melodies and grooves.
The built-in sequencer lets you create patterns directly inside the plugin. A comprehensive effects rack processes your sounds further without leaving Slice.
Flip samples into something new. Chop, rearrange, and build beats faster than ever.
