(I'm totally in the dark with this one, i have no idea what kind of video recording thing i should get. i have a digital one that can record video, but it only lasts 46 seconds.) -What kind of program should i use? i currently have a copy of Cubase my uncle gave me awhile ago, but a friend of mine told me that i can't use it in accordance with video recording. (???) As you can see, i do have some light in this metaphorical cave, but I'm pretty far in. Any help at all would greatly be appreciated!

I advise that you check out Toneport GX (or POD Studio GX as the new model is named). This will solve the audio problems and it costs around 45$. Regarding video, I'm not sure I understand about your camera. How can it record only 46 seconds?? Is it a DV camcoder? How does it record? Does it have a Firewire interface? Regarding video software, you can use Windows Movie Maker, it's free ( when it comes with Windows), or Virtual Dub (freeware) for some simple linear video editing. BTW, Cubase is fine for audio work. You need 2 apps, one for video and one for audio. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

If your camcorder doesen't have mic input you will need one software for video capture and one for audio capture and then you will synchronize both files. If your camcorder do have mic input then you can skip the sync part and record whole mix directly to tape or your PC. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Yes. Here is all the hook ups on it. Line6 stuff is so easy to figure out even I can do it. They got pretty pictures. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
