Did you have the CAPTURE pre-sets in the proper configuration to capture each channel?

Open up the sound waves in the Viewer.
Expand the waves so you can easily see the exact spot where the “bump” occurs.
Adjust the audio level sharply down specifically DURING each “bump” (then, turn it immediately back up, after the “bump.”)
You could also add the EQ and drop off the low frequencies (below 400 Hz, or so) for those brief spots, too.

Drop Frame Time Code is “clock accurate.”
Non-Drop Frame TC is not “clock accurate.”

[Trent Whittington] “What would happen if say you were shooting a documentary and you could clearly hear a popular music in the background.”
Either move the shooting location when recording or replace the audio in post.

Which is the most important leg on a three-legged stool?

Series of books have been written on the subject…
College fields of study are taught…
Lengthy internships have been undertaken…
Years of practical experience and experimentation have taken place…
Respected venerable professions have been built…
all on the pursuit of the simple question you have asked on a bulletin board.How’s this-
Get a really good microphone (or stereo pair.)
Position it/them in the “sweet spot” of the room in relation to the band.
Test everything for levels before you begin.
Wear great over-the-ear headphones throughout the shoot.
Stop and fix any problems as they arise.Afterwards, wish that you’d had more gear and an experienced operator to control it.
I’m not kidding.

Turn up the video gain put on the lens cap and look for white “dead” pixels mixed into the otherwise black image, as viewed on a good external video monitor.

Have you rendered the graphic?
Are you monitoring on an external video monitor? -
If it is a “world famous action film” then get the commercial DVD of the film and record the CENTER CHANNEL audio track from the fight scenes.
That center channel should have much of the foley audio effects, but none of the music.

[Jason Mechelke] “So what if you were paid to record the recital and then gave away the DVD’s? You’re being paid for one service but not the distribution service?
I’m guessing it would be splitting hairs, but I thought it might be an interesting question.
“The fact is, the “damage is done” when you edit and/or otherwise “prepare” the DVD material, and then issue (paid or not) a DVD with the audio on it.
The production that you do (shooting the video, recording the audio and “combining them” for playback) involves “synchronization rights.”
It means that you owe a copyright fee for “syncing” the copyrighted audio to your video.That is a separate and distinct issue from the “duplication rights” of the music (which will ALSO be involved when you make copies.)
