Video/audio Sync, what do you use for video recording? |

Yeah, that's a bit convoluted. You'd definitely be better off exporting the audio from cubase, then importing it into your video app. Striking a staccato chord can serve as a "clapper" you can use to help with lining up the audio. And, it's probably easier to just let the video roll while recording takes. But if MovieMaker doesn't allow cropping the audio, then it's probably time to consider Premiere (or Final Cut on OSX). That can also help you automatically sync your audio and video after you do the audio import.
Todd's the expert on this subject, so I'm sure he'll have some ideas. This post has been edited by Rammikin: Oct 11 2016, 05:51 PM -------------------- Cyber-industrial music and video animations:

Yup. Movie Maker is just a pinch crap but the price is right so sometimes it's the best option
 However, you can download ADOBE PREMIERE for free!!! And use it for a month for free as well!!! It's an honest to goodness Video Editing Program The good news is that if you like it, you can subscribe to it for $20 a month which isn't bad considering it used to cost nearly a grand!!!https://creative.adobe.com/products/downloa...KN&mv=other The way movie folks typically "synch up" is with a clapper.  basically, clap your hands or anything really, and it gives a visual cue, and in your video program you will see a spike in the audio wave form. You line those two up and BAM you are "Synched That's one way. I usually do it the "Easy way" which is to say, I have my camera connected directly to my computer via firewire and I set my audio interface as the audio input, and the camera as the video input and just hit record in QUICKTIME. Everything is automatically synched up as I record and it's ready to edit. I'm on a Mac, but there is a Logitech app that does much the same thing on windows, which I'm sure one of our Logitech Windows users will share I've found that having it setup to have everything ready to roll, really makes things a LOT easier. When inspiration strikes, it's soooooooo lame to have to FIGHT the technology IMHO Todd |

When you import your video into movie maker don't you get the audio wave form at the bottom? I do a strum which gives a spike. I import the video then add audio, line up the spikes, switch off video sound and it's done. I can do it in a couple of minutes now.
