Crossfade Curves

Every track gets independent fade-in and fade-out controls with adjustable length from 1% to 50% of each slice. Crossfade is applied only at boundaries between muted and active slices — ensuring click-free, musical transitions every time.

Powerful Features

Everything you need to slice, chop, and glitch audio in real time.

🎧

6 Independent Tracks

Load up to 6 audio files simultaneously. Each track has its own volume slider, grid resolution, waveform display, BPM detection, and VU metering.

8 Grid Resolutions

Choose from BAR, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, 1/64, or 1/128 grid independently per track. Up to 128 slices per track for surgical chopping.

🎯

Auto BPM Detection

Drop any WAV file and SliceMatrix instantly detects its BPM using loop-length estimation and autocorrelation analysis. Musical loop length is calculated automatically per track.

🎲

Random Mute Patterns

One click generates random mute patterns across all tracks. Instant glitch and stutter effects for creative beat mangling.

🔄

3 Crossfade Curves

Independent fade-in and fade-out per track (1%–50%) with real-time graphical curve display. Choose Equal Power, Linear, or S-Curve for smooth click-free mute transitions.

🎤

Stereo VU Meters

Segmented studio-style L/R meters per track and master bus. Green, yellow, and red zones — just like real hardware.
