It took me awhile to figure this out. Yes, it's an extra step, but makes the editing process so much easier!

Thank you for this simple and clear video. Yes. The CLAP!

Awesome! I digitized a home movie from a mini-dv and the audio was off. Tried splitting the audio and shifting it, but there was no way save or edit or rejoin the audio. Tried your tip and it saved the day!

Thanks this is really helpful so that I’m not having to spend a bunch of money in a bunch of things I don’t know if I want or need.

Which software or app do you use to record your audio?

Thanks for the video, really helpful and gives me confidence to give it a go!

Sometimes when I cut the bottom video to synch with the top, then the top video disappears....I don't know why! does this every happen to anyone?

[andrewjackson]

That looks fine, but… saving the edited parts as 1080 and then re-importing, do I lose video quality?

Well this is how to start the audio file at the same time, but what if the files are not synchronized, meaning one is faster than the other one?

How’d you get that circled overlay from your main camera? 🤔

What software do you use to record the audio?

Whenever I click/drag on the audio or video, it trims instead of moves.

[telepathicbirds]

Wow really? theres no button that does this for you like in FCP?

[Gramercy_Stiffs]

"Pretty good" isn't really an option when syncing audio exactly. There must be a more detailed way to do this??

[arinformationchannel]

Your video is so interesting stay connected my friend

[joefitzy]

Nice, but it would have been a much better tutorial if you had remembered to clap to sync the files.

[ethannaka]

if only imovie had an auto sync.. haha
