Single Cycle Master
Pull single-cycle waveforms out of anything. Build wavetables from them.
Drop in a recording, a chiptune file or start from nothing, and get back a clean, click-free, correctly tuned WAV for Serum, Vital, a Digitakt, an MPC or any sampler.

Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. The download is free; you only give an email address so the serial number can be sent to you. Keep it — it works for every future update.
Do I need to be online?
No. Single Cycle Master runs entirely offline after installing.
Is it a plugin?
No. It’s a standalone app that exports standard WAV files, which any synth or sampler can load.
Will the wavetables work in Serum and Vital?
Yes. Export a wavetable as one concatenated WAV and load it straight into Serum or Vital.
