Question by kippur777: How do you take audio samples from a dvd. I have a mac powerbook G4.?
so i want to make music using movie audio samples. I have pro tools and reason and some outher programs. Is it possible to put in a dvd and rip sound bites directaly onto the computer. How would you go about doing something like this?

Adobe audition can record directly from whatever is playing through your speakers. Also check if Mac’s have a built in sound recorder. These work the same way they record what is playing through the speakers. If it does just record the sample as a WAV. or similar and then import into pro tools. Other than that a dodgy way is to hold a microphone up to some speakers while the DVD is playing and record directly into pro tools. It will probably not sound the greatest but it could have a cool effect with the music ur making which im guessing is electronic. 🙂
