Watch this walkthrough to see how to import and manage external libraries within the Stylus RMX interface:
The converter primarily processes standard REX files (.rx2). REX files inherently contain slice markers and timing data.
Before importing, you must structure your REX files on your hard drive. The SAGE Converter requires a specific folder hierarchy to recognize them as a library: stylus rmx library
One of the best ways to keep your sound fresh is by importing your own files or third-party libraries.

One of the most powerful aspects of the platform is its extensibility. The Stylus RMX ecosystem enjoys significant third-party support, with hundreds of additional libraries available from other developers. This support is bolstered by its ability to handle REX (and RX2) files, the industry-standard loop format. The included application allows users to convert any REX file into the S.A.G.E. format. Imported loops automatically sync to tempo and are subject to the same powerful real-time manipulation as the factory sounds, making any library of REX files a potential expansion for Stylus RMX. The standalone version also includes an "Import REX Files" feature to bring audio directly into the environment.
Every loop in your library has a corresponding MIDI file. Drag it directly from the Stylus RMX browser into your DAW timeline to rearrange the notes or trigger external drum samplers.
