File Information
When you select a file in the list, information about file type, length, etc. is shown
in the lower part of the Open dialog.
The File information.
For all recognized audio file formats, the following information is displayed:
• File Type (see “File Formats” next page).
• Number of channels.
• File Length.
• Bit depth.
• Sample Frequency.
• File Size, in Bytes (For REX2 files the data compression ratio is displayed in
parentheses. In the picture above, 2.4:1 means that the file was 2.4 times
larger before it was compressed).
If the file is a ReCycle file, the following additional information is displayed:
• Tempo.
• Time signature.
• Length in bars and beats.
• Usage, which tells you the size of the loop (i.e the audio between the loca-
tors) in relation to the total file size in percent.
• The number of slices in the file (only available if a REX2 file is selected).
• Export Size tells you the size of the file if transmitted/exported (only available
if a REX2 file is selected).
Play and Stop buttons
When you click the Play button, the selected file will be played back looped until
you press Stop.
Auto Play
If this option is on (ticked), playback will start automatically as soon as a new file
selected from the dialog. If a new file is selected during playback, the previous
selection will stop and playback of the new selection will start directly.
You will not be able to play a file under the following conditions:
• If the file is in a format ReCycle doesn’t support.
• If there isn’t enough memory (RAM) left to load the sample.
• If the sample is longer than 30 seconds, the Auto Play function will not work
- you can, however, audition it using Play.
