i want to start recording my music by myself. id use audacity for one guitar and a video for my voice and bass guitar. is there any way that i can record myself on film and match it up to the audio on audacity so that i can do both guitars and see me sing in sync??
I'v used aucdacity before and i can tell you what you are trying to achieve wont really get you the results your looking for... at least not easily.
(i have just tested this next one myself and it may just work for you)
Using my hacked version of SONY Vegas Video editing software you may use a webcam and its built in microphone(OR A DESKTOP MIC OR ANY OTHER EXTERNAL MIC) you can record one piece then move that clip forward and start recording the next part as soon as the first part starts playing.
Helpfull tips are to use a metronome for the first part just so you can get the perfect timing. Im going to see about using my High Def camera as a webcam and use its microphone to record my youtube video's.
Hopefully iv been a bit of help. The version of sony vegas im using is Sony Vegas Platinum 9.0 you can find yoiutube videos telling you how to get this application for free using patches and/or other hacks. (it doesnt take long to do, half an hour tops) its a brilliant program though. Im probably going to go and actually buy it because its only about 40 quid i believe.
if ya need any more help or want me to explain myself a bit further then you can just send us a message over here and ill get back to you quicky as possible :) [ annon's advice column | Ask annon A Question ]
