Randomizing .rx2 Slice Order

Does anyone know how to randomize the order of slices in a .rx2 file? I remember reading an interview with the Chemical Brothers years ago saying how great it was that you could do it with Reason, but now I've got Reason Adapted and Recycle and I'm stumped... I've also got Protools LE, though I suspect that won't help much in this case.

Assigning Pitch And Placement To .rx2 From Midi

Hi,

I'm working on an entry for Digiki's Kitchen remix contest (http://mapage.noos.fr/castellane/remix.html), and I want to do some stuff with software I'm still unfamiliar with.

Basically, I want to take a long-ish audio sample, chop it up, and assign each piece a pitch and placement from the bassline of a midi file. I have at my disposal a full version of Recycle, Protools LE, Reason Adapted, and Live Adapted (or whatever the version of Live is that comes free with Protools LE). I don't have an external sampler, or a lot of cash to buy full versions of software.

I've started by making the file into an .rx2, but beyond that I'm stumped. I thought Reason would let me do it, but there doesn't seem to be a way to import a MIDI file in the Adapted version. I can import a MIDI file into Protools LE, but have no idea what to do with it beyond that.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!
