Hello to all GMCers!
I want to get involved in the GMC music collab videos and to get some of my stuff on youtube, but I have no idea on how to get started. Can someone point me in the right direction.

Hi Rusty,

Generally on GMC we are using to different device to record something. What most people do is have the camera and a recording software. They record these two device separetely and they sync them together after with a video editing software.

You can use any type of camera for recording the video part. After there is a a bunch of software to record the audio. If you own a Mac computer you can use a software like Garage Band and if you own a PC you can use a software like Sony Vegas.

Go see this lesson, it will probably introduce you well to the world of recording

You will need some budget for recording, and you need several important things:

- Camera (You can go for Logitech Pro 9000 webcam, but ideally you should get a miniDV camcoder, possibly with a FireWire interface)
- Audio Interface (the cheapest option that will do the job is POD Studio GX, and if you plan to record gutiar + vocals as well, go for POD Studio UX1)
- Lightning (cheapest lights are halogen lights, same what Gab uses for lights 3 and 4 in his light setup, in the GMC video tutorial)
