REX files .rx2, .rcy or .rex REX files are created in another Propellerheads application, the ReCycle loop editor. REX
files contain audio loops chopped into slices, with one slice for each significant beat in the
loop.
REX files can be imported to Audio Tracks in Record and are automatically converted to au-
dio files. By loading a REX file into the Dr. Octo Rex Loop Player device (Record+Reason),
you can play back the loop in virtually any tempo (without affecting the pitch), manipulate in-
dividual beats in the loop, extract timing info, etc.
Note that you can also load REX files into the samplers and the Redrum drum machine and
Kong Drum Designer (Record+Reason).
Audio files and Samples .wav or .aif WAV and AIFF files of various resolutions and sample rates can be imported to Audio Tracks
and to Audio Clips in Record.
The NN19 and NN-XT samplers and the Redrum drum machine (Record+Reason) can also
load and play back samples in Wave or AIFF format. You can use files of different formats in
the same device - one drum sound can be an 8-bit sample, the next a 16-bit sample, etc.
SoundFont Bank
(Record+Reason)
.sf2 The SoundFont format was co-developed by E-mu Systems and Creative Technologies and is
used with many audio cards and software synthesizers. SoundFont banks store wavetable
synthesized sounds, allowing users to create and edit multi-sampled sounds in special
Soundfont editing programs. The SoundFonts can then be played back in wavetable synthe-
sizers, typically on audio cards, thereby effectively turning an ordinary sound card into a sam-
pler.
The NN-XT and NN19 Samplers and the Redrum drum machine (Record+Reason) allow you
to browse and load SoundFonts. Regardless of which editing program was used to create
them, these banks are similarly and hierarchically organized, with folders for instruments, pre-
sets, samples etc. The NN-XT, NN19 and the Redrum lets you load individual samples and
presets from a SoundFont bank, but
not the complete SoundFont.
