Using Midi Controller with Recycle?

When chopping up samples in Recycle, is there a way I can assign the different slices to the keys on my midi controller? Or can I only do that in Reason after I turn it into a rex file?
 
you'r the sort of person who would buy a dog from the pet shop

then ask on a dog lovers forum

if dogs can be used as helicopters
 
thanks for the smart *** remark CTP but the funny thing is u couldn't answer my question. I already know how to chop the samples and use them in reason with my midi controller. My question is, when i have recycle open before I save as a rex file, can i use my midi controller to play the different slices just in recycle?
 
Bump

I was googling this, stumbled upon this thread, and I'm wondering the same thing. I love Reason and all but the workflow for sampling sucks... Recycle doesnt even have shortcuts for the pen/arrow tool as far as I know(if someone knows please enlighten me). It would be soooo great to be able to chop with a midi controller MPC style (I have an MPD 32/MPK mini) instead of using my mouse and the sensitivity slider etc... Takes all the emotion out of the chopping/sampling process. Does anyone have a solution to achieve MPC style chopping from the MIDI controller in Recycle/Reason/Record???

as far as i know its not possible, its strictly mouse chopping
 
I was afraid of that :/. Does anyone know of ANY software that lets you use your MIDI controller to chop beats in real time like an MPC? I want to be able to just hit the pads where I want to chop and have those slices auto assigned.. That'd be friggin heavenly, but I can't afford any more hardware right now :(.

yes Maschine is hardware and software. what about Geist? that's just software that can be controlled from your MPD. download the demo and check it out. I was pretty impressed with it but I decided to go the Maschine route

Sickk. I will definitely try these out as soon as I get home. I hope this works. Thank you for the help!
