    Adding video to recordings

    in Recording

    Posted

    If the video is being shot at the same time as the audio recording, it's a simple matter, using Shotcut (a free video editor...) to replace the video audio track with the recorded audio track, simply lining up the two for synchronising. The resulting edited video, with added fade-in/fade-out, or other Fx as required, can then be rendered for YouTube, again very simply. Hope this helps... :friends:

    Never give up, ever. Whatever it is that rocks your world, whatever it is that feeds your soul and gives you purpose, never let go. When you’re gone, it’s over. Until then, f**k everything and do it. 

     

    S'what I tried to explain to the judge and jury, but, apparently, they don't think that it applies to killing sprees . :(

    'Cash only' is often associated with not all of the receipts being declared. Not always, of course, and the Authorities are aware of these 'leaks', and use other, parallel, methods for checking, such as correlating raw materials bought and declared sales. Just sayin'. :|

    USA Epiphones were out of production for nearly 50 years.  In that time the name was used exclusively on cheaper Japanese & Korean made instruments.  Hardly progress from their pre-Gibson heyday.

     

    'Made in the USA' and 'Made in Japan' or Korea have long ceased to be any guarantee of quality. -_-

    Yes I think I will grab a set as a spare - is there any harm getting the version with mic so I can also use for zoom calls - ie is it a different connector?

     

    There's an extra ring on the jack plug, for the mic connection, so it may not be compatible with your current IEM socket. B|

    It's not 'a few hours' and if the product is discontinued why would they spend any time supporting it? If an OS update stops something working and it's discontinued you must have had it for a fair few years, time to upgrade to a better, newer interface.

     

    This is the same with all computer based electronics. If you're spending a lot of money, buy something that is supported by the latest OS, not just by the OS you're currently running.

     

    This a great 'consumer' policy, buying stuff that will become useless by design, and thus destined for scrap. Buy again, and repeat... Is there no better way..? Is there not an inherent wastage here, with the 'new' stuff offering little in the way of real extra value. Then we wonder why the climate is changing..! First World, eh..? :facepalm:

    I grew up in Heston and bought my first house in Bedfont - I only moved to Norfolk 15 months ago so I'm doing the reverse. If you'd also lived in Harrow we could complete the set.

     

    Bell music was the closest music shop to me until Project Music moved to the A4 at Lampton.  

     

    From Norwich, originally, but the family relocated to Bedfont when I was eight; I left for Shepperton at twenty, and for France at twenty-five ('75...). Happy daze; the local bus numbers still come to mind whenever they crop up (116 to Hounslow or Staines, 285 to Hampton for school or Kingston, 237 for Chertsey etc...). :friends:

    ...think of my own way to play each song rather than just the basic root notes. 

     

    Be aware (when playing in general, church or elsewhere...) that this may work if everyone else is playing their stuff 'standard'. Some may well be embellishing themselves, however, in which case your own way may clash with their way. If this is indeed your first outing, I'd suggest playing safe, and sticking to the guaranteed root notes, and listening to what other stuff may be going down, as preparation for the next time, when you will have a better idea of where to 'place' the bass. Just a thought. :friends:
