dh slice

Description: slice turns any audio file into a MIDI-playable instrument.

Load a sample, set your region, detect hitpoints, and commit your slices. Each slice maps chromatically from C1 upward, ready to play from any MIDI controller or your DAW's piano roll.

CORE FEATURES:
Automatic hitpoint detection with adjustable threshold and sensitivity.
Manual green and red locators for precise region selection.
Destructive trim to isolate exactly the audio you need.
Zero-crossing snap eliminates clicks at slice boundaries.
Stackable per-slice fade-in and fade-out for precise pop removal.
Loop playback that respects your start and end markers.
Real-time waveform display with slice overlay and playhead tracking.
