If you start off with an mp3 of someones, and you wish to
remix it in any way shape or form - how do you do this? I
can create songs fine, but whats always passed me by was
remixing stuff..... im using Reason and Cubase..... how can
I work this out? Tell me the steps.... the procedure I need
to know cause Im probably going to be remixing a few songs
for a remix project of a band I really like.

No idea. I actually got asked by a mate to remix a tune by
his band, that was last year, and i still havent done it.
Alas.

CuBase is the best for it.

Hmm well.. I want to remix and fux with the whole song...
its a hardcore electronic / metal song type deal....and I
want to play around with it all and the sounds... overlaying
synths and stuff, basic remixing I guess..... but uh.... I
just dont know how to get at it.. I know lots of you do....
so share!

Get goldwave and convert to .WAV. Yes it will be a giant ass
of a file. But then you can crop sections of the song and
extract them and go from there.

Use sound forge, I think theres one for mac. The best way
I've learned to remix for a band is to have all the
different tracks (Drums, Guitars, vocals) all seperate, but
without knowing the person directly thats dificult.

I know these people somewhat... but I doubt I could get the
parts seperate. Hmm..... I need a program for the mac to do
this... shit!

Reflex .. you can convert mp3's to aiff in iTunes - no need
for other applications.

there is no "specific" way to do a remix. the handiest would
be if you have all the midi tracks and audio files
(seperate) but seeing this is unlikely

.. you should be able to get a freebee vst plug in off
www.databaseaudio.co.uk which will work out the bpm of the
track/s you want to remix .. forget what its called .. by a
french company tho. this is v useful if you're going do to
some serious chopping .

otherwise/um or beforehand .. you might want to import
several compies of the same aiff track into cubase
(depending how many different parts you want to isolate) ..
place them on different channels and then with the eq mute
the parts you don't want featuring on there .. ???

You wont be able to separate it into parts yourself. When
people remix they get all the original files. All you will
be able to do is chop the actual song up and use some of the
original sounds that way. You cant separate sounds out of an
audio file.

soundforge would be the perfect tool, but i actually don't
think that sonic foundry makes products for the mac :p
