Freecycle is a free software beat slicer for Linux using the Qt toolkit, providing amplitude domain and frequency domain beatmatching / zero crossing algorithms.

It exports sliced audio chunks and generates a MIDI file which can be used to play the sliced loop, or can be jammed with as soon as slices are made using a midi keyboard or sequencer.

Freecycle also exports AKAI S5000/S6000/Z4/Z8 .AKP files to be used with samplers, SoundFont files, and supports slice drag and drop to/from or inside Freecycle. It can process the audio inline using LADSPA effects, as well as apply envelopes to separate slices.
