A'reet folks? Anyone point us in the direction of a good freeware VSTi for chopping up old funky breakbeat samples compatible with Sony Acid? Have tried in Audacity but it takes a LLLLOOOONNNGGG time :oops: to get anywhere (seriously, insanity inducing type of thing) am especially interested in any allowing Poj Masta/ edIT type microedits. :)

it is only rinsed because people use it in the wrong way

dont just slap it down and be done with it

use it to make FX samples and stuff
