Dodgey Samples,
Ive got a few samples that ive noticed that seem to resonate a really high pitched tone, which gets ten times worse when any reverb or delay is put on them, using reason ive tried to use a vocoder, the equaliser and filters, to eq it out but it wont seem to go away, anyone know what this is and how I could get rid of it with any plugins in cubase maybe?

As niether a reason or cubase user I cant really offer any advice other than perhaps resampling them. I say this as it might be a problem with the files that only come out whan put through a plugin. Do they sound ok when played normally? Other than that you would have to apply strong eq and then compression and hope you can't hear it in the mix

It could also be the phanomanom of scychoacoustics. Put crudly, it's when certien frqc's become more apparant on differant keys of the keybourd. It is often, if not always due to the acoustics of the room and can take a lot of time and money to sort out. Usually treatments like wall pannels(peaces of accoustic foam) can help. Have you tried listening to them through head phones? Go to the soundonsound web page, they can help you out. Or it could just br shite samples

ill get em from my comp and put em up to see what you think, I can still hear a ringing through headphones, they are both one shot samples of instruments that have been probably been recorded at home. Allthough the ringing appears to be high pitched it is still audible almost to the point of not hearing the actual sample itself when eq'd/filtered.
If it has a ringing or buzzing to it try getting a parametric EQ, and using a narrow boost on one band - crank it up and sweep it across the frequency spectrum. The spot where the ringing is should pop out. Drop the band back down so the ringing dissapears.
Quite often ringing sounds will need multiple narrow bands set at different frequencies to get rid of it. It depends on how bad it is...
Its easiest to start with good quality samples.

Ah niceone, thanks I will try that.

These all sound fine to me, the high end part of the reverb maybe sounds a bit too bright but nothing untoward. Not sure of your setup, but it might be worth recording the sounds with the res onto a cd and listening to it on someone elses pc and see if it still occurs.
It may be that your samples when played in your sampler may be recorded at a different sample rate than what you have set up as the audio sampling rate, had some odd sounds come out when 44.1kHz samples were played when logic was playing at 48, so this may be the problem

Hmm....
