Hello folks,
I'm currently using a Sony camcorder, Reaper, Windows Movie Maker and a Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 2nd gen.

I have got pretty quick at syncing the sound file to the video in the simple, but ideal for me, Movie Maker but it would be lovely to be able to capture sound and video in some sort of software so I don't have to manually sync.

What do you suggest? What should I look for in a camera, I can't output directly to my computer with my current one so I have to transfer the file. What software can I use with a quick learning curve?

Thank you for your help.

Phil

The quickest way but not best for quality is to capture everything through a webcams mic. I have stereo mics in my logitech and run my guitar through the computer so all sound comes out of the speakers.

It's not ideal but if you are looking for a quick way to get videos up for you mentor then it's better than not bothering because of the effort required.

Saying that I'm one to talk I've bailed on both Gab and Todd multiple times through lack of commitment and effort

There are video programs that let you capture "desktop sound" (I'm pretty sure Phil plays through the computer somehow, right? Not sure though...) as well as video at the same time. This will capture everything that is heard on the computer in real time and sync up meanwhile with the video. It's essentially how I did the video posted above. It's not as easy setting up of course, but much better for quality and essentially as easy as pushing "record" in the program.
