(In case any Propellerheads are reading: a Slice to Pads sampling feature in Kong would be killer.) One thing to note is that Reason doesn’t have the option to slice across pads in real time as you can with the MPC, Maschine or Push, but it’s still pretty fast and simple. There are some slightly different ways to approach this technique in Reason, but all are variations of the same workflow: record some audio into an audio track, divide it into sections, then make these sections available to play individually on a Kong Drum Designer instrument. Maschine and Push have since adopted very similar features, and it’s also easy to use this production trick in Reason. Beat-chopping is also deeply ingrained in Akai’s MPC, where you can quickly record a sample and spread individual slices across the pads.

Propellerhead of course have a long history with this concept, being the developers of ReCycle: the tool for doing this in the hardware sampler era. One of the classic techniques in hip-hop production is to sample a loop or section from a record, chop it into sections, then re-trigger the sections in new ways. We look at different ways to slice audio in Reason. Two sections of sampled audio: one clean drum loop, and part of a full mix.
