Browser-based tool for adding silence to the end of a breakbeat measuring .11111 the total length of the input file. Breakbeat Embalmer renders a chop-ready WAV file, to spec for the Korg Volca Sample. VSBE embalms the dead sounds of yesterday, readying them to be sequenced into the new sounds of tomorrow. Based on the procedure described in Chris Lody's tutorial.
