Maybe web cam is having troubles to process all that sound coming
from Pod or something else, just guessing tho. Anyhow, I would still record audio and video separately, video with the cam and audio directly into DAW like Reaper, Cubase etc. It might be more complex thing to do but will give you best quality at the end. -------------------- Youtube

I do it as Muris said, and have no problems. To avoid poor framerate I suggest you turn off all auto settings (right light etc.) and adjust them manually, you can easily double the frame rate and still keep a nice quality image.
To put together both files (video & sound) you can use windows movie maker or any other software. -------------------- Guitars:

When not recording the audio on the video file, you can strum the strings before recording - this can give you a sync point.

Yeah, you maybe right. I notice the video lagging while recording. I set the web cam's audio source to my Toneport. Next time I will try as you suggest and do audio in reaper and just let the web cam do the video with the audio source muted. I hope my CPU can handle it Give it a shot, fingers crossed. -------------------- Youtube

I had serious problems with this Logitech camera and pod. My problem was that when Logitech drivers were installed, I couldn't use the POd xt with USB. Or, I could use it, but when turning off the POD a blue screen appeared every time. After some research I found people have had all sorts of issues with pod and installed Logitgech drivers. They don't seem to be so close friends? I did however always record audio separatly, as said above... You may want to experiment with different USB ports...But some devices just don't want to cooperate..For example if I use Toneport on USB and my external hard drive enclosure with USB too , external hard drive just keeps crashing and reseting etc...Maybe USB ports can't supply enough power or something.. -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

Have you tried recording just video without sound input on the webcam, and recording the sound trough reaper, then mixing both with movie maker?, from what you said on your last post I don't know if you are still trying to use the webcam's mic.
I have no problem whatsoever recording vid with webcam & sound with reaper. One more thing: the few times I was lazy and tried recording directly through the webcam I tried two things: 1) Recording with the cams mic: I noticed I had to put my speakers further away from the webcam so they wouldn't clip the sound. It's a pretty sensitive mic even at low volumes. 2) Tried recording with the webcam setting the mic to PodX3. Had no problems. But that way I couldn't record along with backings (maybe there's a way to do it but I don't know how). So bottom line is I use pod & Reaper for sound + Webacam for vid and mix it later with movie maker. -------------------- Guitars:

The cracking may be caused by over modulation with the mic Outlaw but could be a few other things. Problems like this are frustrating as all you can do is a long series of tests to find the cause. If you can try the following:
i) use a studio mic to record with Audacity. If the crackling is still there then the issue is with Audacity, the cables, or the pc, or some combination. ii) download Reaper and try the Logitech through that. If the crackling is still there then the issue is most probably with the Logitech mic. If it is over modulation then I think the only thing you can do is to get a refund and a replacement. If you can't do the above then I'd take it back and ask for a refund as 'not fit for purpose'. -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.

Is your computer low on ram/cpu maybe? Does audacity handle asio driver?
You can always give a try with reaper, will take you just 5 minutes. It's hard to tell what could be causing the problem. -------------------- Guitars:

The standard release version of Audacity doesn't have ASIO Fran. AFAIK the only way you can use ASIO in Audacity is to compile an Audacity version yourself and then implement ASIO SDK from Steinberg or ASIO-4ALL.
