Bringing Out a Certain Sound from a Sample

I'm working on a flip of R-Kelly's Kisses track. It's not an acapella, I've just chopped it different. Now in the sample I can hear some Rhodes type noise, I want to brink it out more.

I found a nice trick of using Reaktor as an FX synth on the sample loop (I've layered it in the back), which gives some nice high pitched sounds but it's just not enough. But I'd like to pull out those sounds with some sort of processing from the original.

You can hear it more in the second one. They're chords.





Any ideas?

Taking eggs out of a completed baked cake?!

Well I wasn't trying to take the egg out of the cake, just give the egg a little more flavour. A bit of chocolate sauce on my cake. :p

I've resorted to recreating the chords and creating a similar sound, then layer it over the top.

OMG THE CAKE IS A LIE?!?!?! FML! I'm off

I've did something familiair like this before with a few beats.

I just kind of applied the low end theory trick but then with the frequency range of the instrument I want to bring out more to the front. Didn't always get away with it, but can do the trick sometimes.

Just copy the sample/ loop, filter/ Eq and some delay so it blends in better.

Why is there a **** Swastika under her Eye on the Soundcloud picture?

i find using a notch filter accentuates the frequencies just outside of those being passed. give the knob a wiggle and see what happens (my uncle Cliff used to say that when i was younger)

See:



Lots of uses for that trick.

a parametric EQ isn't doing the trick?
