Rex2

by Propellerheads
Rex2 is a proprietary type of audio sample loop file format developed by Propellerheads, a Swedish music software company. The files are sliced internally offering musicians great flexibility with pitch and tempo of a loop or sample, allowing great freedom of expression and creativity. It is one of the most popular and widely-supported loop file formats for sequencer and digital audio workstation software. It is supported by Propellerhead Reason, Steinberg Cubase, Steinberg Nuendo, Apple Logic, Digidesign Pro Tools, Cakewalk, Cakewalk Sonar, Image-Line FL Studio, MOTU Digital Performer, MOTU Mach 5 (software sampler), and Synapse Audio Orion Platinum, among others.
