Year of issue: 2008
Version: v1.4.7-AiR
Developer: LiveLab
Tabletka: Not required
Description: The virtual instrument LiveSlice, a VST format plug-in (Windows), allows you to load up to 64 WAV files (of any type without data compression), divide them into parts (automatically or manually, up to 256 per file) and combine the resulting slices in a multitrack arrangement ( up to 32 tracks). Supports graphical movement of slices, individual parameter change (level, pan, attack, decay, decay, pitch, reverse), control of all parameters via MIDI, synchronization with the host program, any sample rates, color coding of slices, control of effect plug-ins via MIDI -messages of controllers (in host programs that support the VST 2.0 protocol), import and export of loops in the ACID format. There are eight outputs, a built-in loop browser with pre-listen, randomization and quantization.
New in version 1.4.7:
new features and changes
* REX import
* Resizable file browser
* Faster GUI and a new “lofo GUI” for smooth operation on older machines
* Improved waveform display: visualizes both the average and the loudest frequency so there’s a visual difference between a bassdrum with or without hihat – even when the hihat is quiet.
* More midi automation options: slicing and recording can now be controlled by midi (for example: hit a midi-key to record, use mod-wheel to auto slice the recording)
* Time signature support, durations in bars + beats in both slicer and arranger.
* clicking the “play” button now results in a monophonic preview mode (play one arrangement at a time, select the currently playing arrangement with the mouse)
* Loops list no longer auto-scrolls on click
* Removed the “clear event” feature (there’s no need to have empty events in an arrangement)
* Middle mouse now deletes events if no parameter is selected, and resets parameters if a parameter is selected
* it’s now possible to reset event parameters by clicking and dragging with middle mouse button down.
fixes
* Better sorting in file browser
* Refresh after Ctrl + V an Event – now stays on the destination track
* Refresh after Adding a Track – now displays the new track
* Refresh track selection after Deleting a Track
* Refresh track selection after Re-opening LS
* right click to toggle default values are back (loop / arrangement duration and time signature)
* “Lock to loop” setting is now correctly recalled when opening projects
* graphical waveforms always removed when loop is deleted
* some bugs when changing MIDI config details fixed
* fixed “Changing banks, selects another arrangement”
* fixed “missing file” dialog bug
* more minor bug fixes
