Does the noise stop when you pull it into gear, or does it continue. If it stops then it could be gearset failure from lack of lube.
If the noise continues, then it could be pump or converter problems.

The gearset is lubed from the cooler return line, If this is blocked or reduced by clutch or band debris, the gear set wears out.

The flex plate can produce noise, but would not cause the slipping. Lost of end float in the gearset adds travel to the clutches thus the slipping.
