The best you can do is to add a bass rolloff using your equaliser. This will reduce the rumble, however there is nothing you can do to completely remove the wind noise since it is very wide banded. Try setting your bass rolloff at 200hz and cut it to the max.

Sorry Tom I don’t have any other tricks up my sleeve.
Perhaps Sony Tech Support can help.

Sprague,

Don’t worry with that question anymore.
My previous post explains how to adjust problematic
soundcard sync. Hope it works for you.

It should not do that.
I’m stumped.

[Sprague Theobald] “as far as getting into the system and seeing where Vegas points to for an audio application”

Here’s how to get to it.

Click on Option (look at top, file edit view insert tools options)
Select Prefrences
Select Audio Device Tab
Select Advanced button
Put a check in the “Interpolate Position” Box

You will also find the other adjustment that I refered to here.

Regards, Rick.

Sprague here is somthing to try.
This is from the Vegas help file.

Interpolate position
When check box is selected, the application will attempt to compensate for inaccurate devices by interpolating the playback or recording position. If you notice that your playback cursor is offset from what you are hearing, enable this option for the playback device.

Here’s how to get to it.

Option/Prefrences/Audio Device Tab
Select Advanced button
Put a check in the “Interpolate Position” Box
OK.

I this helps all done.
If not you might also experiment with another setting
in your advanced audio box.

Position bias
If the position of playback or record does not match what you hear after you enable Interpolate position, you can attempt to compensate using the Position bias slider.

Moving this slider will offset the position forward or backward to compensate for the inaccuracies of the device.

Hope this helps. Let me know.

Regards, Rick.

[Sprague Theobald] “In case I can’t find the sound card model right off the bat, I should look in Device Manager (Windows XP)?”

Correct.

Sprague,

That is good news. If you are capturing via a firewire
cable (as I’m sure you are) the video and audio are locked to
each other, hence after capture you pull it onto the timeline and audio and video are in sync. The reason for the drift while monitoring your capture is because your computer’s soundcard internal clock is not locked to Vegas capture.
In fact you may notice it drift on long projects played back on Vegas timeline. What model soundcard are you using and what is selected for an audio playback device in Vegas’ Audio Preferences.

Tonight I will look further into this for you.

Regards, Rick.
