Actually you can cut and paste slices to and from positions in SliceX.

Another good thing is the demo is almost fully functional. You can export wav regions and or entire wav with slice info embedded. You can't convert to 24bit in SliceX (only 16/32b) like in BeatCreator..

Yes can still do that like this, it will take a little more time though
