Chop-R is a beat slicer, but not one in the traditional sense.
It cuts a loop, into a grid of equal sized parts. So that when you move the parts around, you keep the original groove and everything stays locked in tempo. You will be aided to re-order these parts in creative and musical ways, by using different algorithms to randomize the playback order of the parts.
You can time-stretch (courtesy of Signalsmith Stretch Library) and pitch to match your projects key and tempo. Finally filter, EQ and distortion effects are available for you to shape the output.

I tried it and was immediately surprised by the good results.
You can easily load a sample into the plugin via drag & drop (also works from the Studio One browser). But there is also an internal browser. Then you select an algorithm and click "Chop". The result almost always sounds good, and if something isn't quite right, you have the control to modify it to your liking. The resulting chop is saved in a pattern and can now be played back with the MIDI note C3. If you then switch to the pattern overview (hamburger menu bottom right), you can create a new pattern by clicking the plus symbol. Each pattern is assigned to a MIDI note (starting from C3).
A nice feature is that you can change the colors of the GUI.
I can recommend this plugin to everyone. It's my go-to plugin for sound chopping.
