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.

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.
