OT? Remixing / Sampling
 

When someone remixes or samples a part of a record, how's it done? Do they
lay their hands on masters with all the instruments & vocals separated, or
do they just blank out frequencies until they've got what they want? Or is
there clever computerism?

Doesn't really answer my question of how it's done. I know what it IS.

All the methods are mentioned.

Some require access to the original multi-track while others don't.

Two different questions, really. A re-mix by definition needs access to
the multi-track master. A sample could be anything.

Mentioned. Not explained. Which is what I asked: how is it done.

** A method * IS * how you do something - ****head.

Go ask the all the trolls and jerk-offs on " rec.audio.pro " if you want a
nuts and bolts explanation of the many dozens of different techniques
employed.

Not that a ****ing tenth-wit called Doki the Dope would comprehend a
single word.

Take something like that Sugababes song that sampled Gary Numan (electric
sheep IIRC), where they get the synthy backing track and take the vocals off
it - do they get the masters and get the backing track that way or is there
a way to get the vocals off the mixed single (photoshop for sound :D?). Or
even earlier, something like Rappers Delight, where there wasn't computer
jiggery pokery and they apparently didn't have permission to use the sample
(maybe just loop a bit without vocals?).

There's a big difference between saying the method for making bread is
"Baking" rather than "you do x y and z".

If I'm being OT, that's because there's OT? in the subject line.

Alliteration!
