Break processing

I love junglistic breaks, but every time i try using a think break, I get a well annoying click. Its on the sample(actual fingerclicks), not just rough cutting. When I hear think breaks used on tunes they always manage to get rid of this.

Any tips much appreciated

What software are you working with? You need to adjust the envalope settings or try and use a gate plugin

Are you working with a unprocessed 'think' break ? What i used to do:cut out every single hit using zoom in Sound Forge then pitch it up a bit,also sometimes using really tiny fade-outs at the end of each sample,before putting it back together.As it is with most of the breaks,it's all about precision.

Think is a special case. You could write books about how to treat that tune.

Yeah, fading out the end in soundforge or sticking it in a sampler and messing with the amp envelope will fix that problem.

Not to mention that there are many good places to sample in that song. Chop that shit up and re-arrange...

if its the one before the snare (i know there are loads of different versions) you can just cut it up and just not include the click.
if you are using recycle its much easier, you can just chop it up and then not play the note its on.

yeah either chop it up in recycle or just zoom into it in your audio editor and remove the unwanted bits, chopping with quantise off to get you right on the beat then you can re-arrange as you please adding or subtracting parts as you go..
