The only way I was ever able to get REX files out of Refills was by loading them into
Reason, slowing the tempo way down (to make big gaps between the hits), exporting the
loop as an aiff, importing that into Recycle, and creating a new REX file. It only takes about
as long to do as it does to type this, though it sounds really complicated. I had a (cracked)
version of Reason I used only for that purpose. Then I felt guilty about having a cracked
version of anything and deleted the program.
