Edison’s EQ will use the root note to filter out anything that isn’t a harmonic of that note. The root note is the note that must be played on the sampler in order for the note to play at normal speed, and when recording instrument multisamples, the note of the sound that was recorded. This note will be the root note in a sampler, if the sample is saved and loaded into one.
The middle note of the sample is set by right-clicking the darker grey ‘Title’ area in Edison, and selecting the middle note down at the bottom of the resulting window.
There’s a few options for filtering out unharmonic stuff, based on the middle note. The EQ in Edison has some options in the dropdown menu accessible from the little arrow next the strange ‘Envelope’ label. Sometimes, you come across a nice sample and think, “Woo! I’m going to rip out that long, sustained saxophone and free it from this boring-arse ambient relaxation music.” But then you notice all the other trills and runs and bird chirps that occupy the same frequency range.
