Hi Rob,

Yup i seem to have misread your post and was still capturing and recording guitar in Cubase. So i need to record the cam feeds onto tape at the same time as recording the guitar in Cubase, then import both cams footage and the guitars wav into vegas and sync.
Just one more question if ya don’t mind, when exporting the guitar from Cubase, should i export as a WAV file or a Wave 64 file?

Thanks again for the advice.

Lee

Hi Danny,
Thanks for your advice, i’ll give the zooming in on each hand a go cos that’ll save me a lot of time importing video into vegas.
cheers

Hi Rob,

Thanks for your help, i’ve just about got it now, synced DV and audio using the method you suggested and the results are great. Just one little thing that needs sorting, when recording and capturing there is a delay from the audio from the camera that puts me off whilst playing and for some strange reason the delayed audio from the camera is a lower pitch then what’s outputed thru Cubase. I went into vegas to try and mute the camera audio but the only thing i could find was the ‘don’t capture audio’ in the capture menu and then i couldn’t sync tracks together.
Is there any way to mute the camera audio whilst still recording it for syncing. Also do i have to have the frame rate setup the same for both vegas and Cubase projects?

I’ve checked your site out and listened to your tracks, nice guitar work going on. Do you use live drums or a VST like EZ drummer/ BFD? Like the vids on the site too, did you use Vegas Pro to make them?

Cheers,
Lee

Hi Rob,

What i’m after doing is recording a video playing guitar to camera, there will be two feeds DV, one of my right hand and one of my left hand and fretboard, there will by only one audio track of the guitar, i like to improvise a lot and doing ADR to captured vid would be nearly impossible cos sometimes i can’t remember what i’ve played, duh!!
So the start of the dvd would be me playing a solo over a backing track and then playing examples and techniques slowed down that i’ve used in the solo ect without the backing track.

I’m not using an amp i’m using an m-Audio Omnistudio USB interface audio input then using software amp sims(amplitube mainly) in either Cubase or Vegas to get the tone i’m after.
I don’t think the omnistudio reads/writes smpte, i’ve googled interfaces that read/write smpte and the only one i could find was the Midiman USB Midisport 8x8s but i think they have been discontinued, if i have to get a device that will read/write smpte, do you know of any models that would be suitable for my needs?
There will be another audio track but that will be a voiceover so i’ll prob be able to manage doing that by ADR, thanks for your advice john.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply, i’m using the input on a m-audio omnistudio usb for my guitar, the guitar is a dry signal and i add fx distortion delay ect on my pc so i have to do it that way. The camcorder i’m using is a Panasonic NV-GS330, i don’t think there is a audio input on it.

Would it be easier for me to start recording the audio input 1st in vegas then start the DV capture then trim the audio from the begining to match the DV?

Thanks for your help,

Lee
