Hello, I am currently working with only a computer and FL Sudio. I am wondering if anyone knows of a program that might exist that would be able to take an individual sound from a song and slice it up (like an MPC) from a wav file, so I can then open it as a sample in FL Studio. For example, I have a track I cut several years ago that has the exact kick sound I want, eq'ed perfectly, but I don't have it in any soundbanks anywhere. Intead of going through all the time of taking a dry kick (once I've found one that has a similar texture) and then spending forever to try and get it close. Is there some program (after I've made my track a wav file) to slice it down to just that kick sound I've chosen, within the paramaters of a sampled kick, and then I can open it a sample in FL and BAM! There is my kick as tight as a drum machine sound. Anybody have any ideas.. please help

What you need is a wav editor. There are plenty of them out there (with a variety of features), including some that are free. Looking through the freeware links(RecordingDirectory.com from the links on the left), I quickly found Audacity, and Wave Splitter from Claudiosoft. Check those out, they should do what you need (especially audacity).

Oh, and welcome to HRC.

But that won't work to get JUST the kick out of a song where guitars are all over the kick

then you will need a New dry kick

BTW try this link maybe there are some Kick sounds there for you

You might try to look for Bass drum
rather than Kick

But if you have a section were you can carve the kick out without much else around it you can get it without much ado..
