ReCycle

What is ReCycle?

ReCycle is a music and audio editing app built for turning sampled loops and rhythmic recordings into sliced files that can be rearranged and tempo-matched in production projects. It is used by musicians, producers, beat makers, and sound designers who want to separate a loop into individual hits while preserving its feel. On macOS, ReCycle helps users detect slice points, preview timing changes, adjust pitch and stretch-related playback settings, and prepare material for reuse in samplers and DAWs that support the REX format. It also saves ReCycle documents with slice and processing data for later editing. Published by Reason Studios AB, ReCycle is especially relevant in workflows centered on loop manipulation, groove extraction, and exporting REX2 material for further sequencing.

Key features

• Slice rhythmic audio into individual hits for loop-based editing
• Preview tempo changes without flattening the groove of the original performance
• Adjust slice points and refine how transients are divided
• Change pitch and playback-related processing settings during preview
• Save ReCycle documents with slice and processing data for later work
• Export REX2 files for use in compatible music production tools

Safety overview

Status: Safe

ReCycle is legitimate music production software. It works with audio files and project data, so the main practical concern is protecting your recordings and saved loop files before removing the app or changing related folders. Access to files you choose to open is normal for this kind of tool.

Recommendation: Keep ReCycle if you edit sampled loops, create REX2 files, or revisit older loop libraries and music projects. If you no longer use it, you can remove the app, but keep any exported files or saved ReCycle documents you still need for future sessions.
