I use ReCycle all the time man...its great for Reason and for my Sp-505 (With the 505 i export it to wav and it saves each and every chop)....but for reason save it to a Rex file and load that sucker up into the NNXT Sampler within reason and ur made!
Yeah, but there's ways to chop samples for free. http://www.squarecircle.com/

They say it's an evaluation demo, but you can save all your chops in wave format.
It's one of my favorite programs. I can use it easily with reason, the main reason i have it. But it's also easy to use with an mpc, i used it all the time with my mpc. And when i got my akai rack, i thought it was real dope that i could just transfer everything with a $10 scsi card. Defineatly worthwile imo
recycle is spendy but it makes reason a little dynamic. chopping samples and using them in the nn-xt sampler is nice, lots of control there. you can also make str8 loops in recycle, from samples,if you use those. no timestretch tho.
