Making loops

[BlackPanther]

I was wonderin if there is anyway to create loops with FL Studio. Everytime I try to use the slicer, it takes me to the BeatSlicer and I only have the demo of that and I don't have ReCycle. I was wanting to cut this vocal wav to use with Reason but I don't even know where to start unless I'm not lookin hard enough =/.

Not quite sure what you're trying to do exactly? Slice out a vocal sample from a wav? Or create a loop within FL?

If it's the former, just drag the wav file from windows and drop it into FL's playlist. Then use the razor tool to trim it out. Or, you could use Edison to load in the wav file, trim it down, and make it loopable; or whatever you're trying to do.

I was wanting to slice the vocal sample itself with the file being a .rex file. Can I only do that using ReCycle?

The Fruity Slicer will handle rex files and so will Slicex if you have version 8. You can right click on the file in the browser and choose to open in a slicer channel. If you want to just chop it like a normal audio file, do what Nutritious said.

After the chopping though, I want to save it as a .rex file and I can't find out how to do that unless I can't or I'm just missing it...

I just checked and as far as I can tell, you can't save samples as .REX in FL Studio, Slicex, or Edison. You can use existing .REX files or save .WAV with regions.
