I have a friend who is getting a Sony HDR-FX1 camcorder and we had the idea to track the audio and video seperately from each other so we could use our preamps and mics instead of using the camcorders mini input. We are not going to be using the mic in the camcorder itself. We need to sync the audio and video recording to each other so post-processing is minimal, but how do you do that?

Anyone here ever done multitracking on S-VHS tape?

Hello, I want to practice and record using an electronic drumset and guitar, bass etc.. and record to a multitrack unit. The guitar will have a podxt and the bass will be direct so no mics will be used. I was wondering if: instead of using headphones while tracking if I could use Fostex PM0.4 monitors to monitor the sound.

I am using Samplitude 7.11 with an Echo Layla 24/96 input device. I can get a click, a scratch guitar and 7 drum mic inputs in just fine. Then I go to overdub the original guitar or add bass whatever and the last track I add starts ok, but gets off sync after awhile. It is super annoying. I have experimented with having to do the track over and over etc...

HI there!...I own a pair of Yamaha Ns-40's...I do all of my tracking, mixing, mastering on them and I love them!
BUT the tracking with these babys realy isn't the real deal...I mean some times I go record in defrent studios and the way the tracking sounds in other places is amazing...I'm now thinking of buying a pair of monitors just for the tracking prosses!...any sugestions?

Is this OK for recording and/or mixing? Wooden floors with bass traps in the corner and Auralex acoustic foam on some walls?

Thanks for any information.

How serious and stable is it?

I happen to have Audition installed on a portable machine, and want to know if I should trust the multitracking for serious work.

Anyone with any hands-on experience?

Has anyone ever tracked in a room that sounded killer that had very little
to no treatment. I've just got permission to use a old victorian styl home

Hi,

First off, sorry to add yet another compression post. I know it gets old reading “what are the best settings for my compressor” over and over again. But using the search function, I found similar topics, but not the answer to this particular question. Not that I read every topic that came up – so if I missed it, I apologize.
