What's an easy and effective way to rip certain audio segments from a movie in good quality? Say for example I want an audio clip of a certain quote, how would I go about that?

It may not be the best or most efficient, but I turn the stereo mix on in my sound controls and use Audacity if it's off the web or playing a movie on my computer.

What's Audacity, where can I find it, and how do I use it?

Also, what is stereo mix? Your sound controls may be completely different than mine if you're running a different OS. ( I'm using windows vista home premium x64 )

I appreciate the answer, but unless you explain it, it's not really helpful in the least.

Can anyone else assist me?

googling "audacity" really that hard?

I'd suggest these forums for any production-wise questions:
http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/production-tips-449/

Even if you are a total noob, people will surely help you out because A LOT of them are incredible mixers/producers.

In fact, check out this section of ultimate-metal: http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/andy-sneap-151/
One of the most useful forums I've been in quite in a while.

If you're looking for some more faster answers but less professional, you can always go here: http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=40

/E: But yeah, I'll try to answer your question: The best way would be to get the audio file and to open it in a DAW (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Audio_Workstation) such as Audacity or Reaper (Both free), unless you have bought one and then cut the sample out from there and export it as another audio file.

On audacity I usually just use this setting : "Record what I'm hearing" .. Actually the sound card is recording the song played from itself.

(Audacity is an easy recording freeware)

Thanks



Thanks, very helpful.



I figured I'd ask someone who knew what they were talking about rather than just read about it on google. Suck a dick and die.
