New(er) to this site (just over a month), and I just found the "REC" program today. Sounds like a really great tool, and I'm excited to send in my first one soon. So far, I've really been honing in on this riff for the last few days (https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/solo-guitar/country-picking-advanced/) but I can't get it up to "Muris-Speed" (aka: 155bpm!!) quite yet!! I'll try and upload my first vid tomorrow, since it's my day off. I'm kind of an audio-video idiot, so I'm hoping I can get it figured out easily enough. In fact, I'm simply hoping to submit a "live" take, as opposed to having to mix and edit the sound and such. I know I can get a good enough mix that way, but obviously it's not "GMC Instructor" quality!! I'll post my results here perhaps. Thanks GMC!! This site and community is great! I hope to see it expand (although, hopefully not the price!) over the next few years, as I hopefully find more time to get involved here, as opposed to just watching lesson vids as I've been doing thus far. Looking forward to your first REC take! When it comes to audio/video quality, it is not that important as long as we can hear what you are playing (so we can give feedback on it). Live take will do just fine! Posting videos is fun and it really pushes you forward when it comes to practicing. Also a great tool to "see" your progress over time. Great to have you on the site - see you around the forum! -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

Hey there, I would like to upload a video within the rec program. But I am not experienced in recording with video. Is there somewhere a description on GMC how to do it? Let's say I record the take in Logic as I always do and I record it somehow simultaneously with my Camcorder. My main question is, how do I syncronise the audio file with the video file? Thanks Hey man, You can use a video editor program like windows live movie maker or sony vegas etc. You mute the video sound and replace it with the one you recorded via DAW If you have questions you can pm me anytime Cheers, Dogukan. -------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SPOTIFY PAGE YOUTUBE CHANNEL |

Thanks You are right. Once you have audio and video, you need to synchronize them in the video editing software like (Windows Movie Maker, Sony Vegas, iMovie etc).

I will Thanks for that quick reply! You're welcome! To sync them you need to import both audio and video tracks into your video editing software. There you can move around the audio track in order to make it in sync with the video you see in the preview screen. -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

I'll say "thanks" in advance..... I just got an interface, so I'll be able to FINALLY submit more quality audio and vids. I have been wondering about the same question, but now I have the answer before I've even tried!! Thanks Quadrium/Bogdan!

Just diggin up some olds posts while having nothing to do at work! Soo, is REC still a thing that people do? I remember it being very constructive back in the days, so I might saddle up again and join the REC-train if it`s still going! Yes - REC is still on! Check out the latest student submissions here: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...p?showforum=152 It would be awesome to see a new REC take from you -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

Hi guys,
just if anyone is looking for a video editing software - because the Windows Movie maker did not work for me, I downloaded VideoPad free version and it seems to me much better than Movie maker http://www.nchsoftware.com/videopad/index.html Petr |

Im so close to my first rec now, its not gonna be perfect but ill do it anyway just to show where im at. That's great news Tommy! REC takes don't need to be perfect at all, what is important is that you practice and get feedback on your videos so that you can make quicker progress in your playing. Please let me know if you need any help submitting your first REC take. -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

i have a crappy 720 cam but mid day it should record ok, i laso made some youtube videos before and i have cubase so i think im ok. Any help on how to get the sych right should be awesome though, im gonna record the video in media player, will that work ok with sony vegas? Yes, recording video in windows media player should allow you to export it and use it in Sony vegas for final editing. How to get the sync between video and audio? 1. Record video on camera or using video capture software on the computer of your choice. This recording should also feature camera microphone audio (will come in handy later) 2. While recording video, have at the same time open audio recording software (in this case Cubase) and record your guitar audio. 3. Export audio and video recorded via camera (here you'll have good video and crappy camera mic audio) 4. Export audio mix of guitar and backing track from the Cubase (audio recording software) 5. Import all files (camera video/audio + Cubase audio) into Sony Vegas and add them to timeline tracks 6. To sync video and Cubase audio you have, you'll be using the audio recorded by a camera microphone as that track is already in perfect sync with the video you have. Line up your good quality audio of guitar playing/backing recorded in Cubase with audio track you have from the camera. Use intro count in or some specific moments in tracks where you can clearly see markers in the audio waveform which you can use to line them up. Once successful, both audio from the camera and one from cubase will sound good together (sound as one). 7. Once audio tracks are synced and they match the video, mute the camera low quality audio track in Sony vegas and just leave the video track + quality audio from Cubase on and render the final video. Please let me know if you need any help or clarification of any of the steps above? p.s. using natural daylight or as much artificial light as possible in the evening is always welcome in order to get a good looking video. Camera needs as much light as you can provide to produce good results. -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net
