Hi,
We have done a misc video and in essence have shot the song 6 times and wish to edit them into one clip.
All cams were lip sync to the wav we will sync it all to in the edit.
What is the best way to do the 6 as I believe the multi is only 4.
Thank you
Hi
. . . . What is the best way to do the 6 as I believe the multi is only 4.. . . .
MEP/MMS is limited to 4 cameras VPX can handle up to 9 cameras at once - this is covered in the manual p242 onwards .

Hi.
I strongly suggest you read the manual on multi-cam editing before you start as it may not be what you expect it to be. It starts with this sentence.
Multicam editing enables easy cutting of various recordings of the same scene from different camera
perspectives.
Meaning the same take from six different camera angles recorded at the same time and not six different takes.
Unless there is no variation of pitch or timing between performers on the individual takes I can see this becoming a nightmare to synchronise to the audio track you choose.

Hi Ray,
If I understand correctly, Oz says that they lip-synced to the same song 6 times. That means that they did not actually sing but used the same song 6 times and thus the audio should be the same on each video recording. That should be easy enough to sync.
Once synced, Multicam uses only one of the audio files.
Oz, here is a link to a Multicam tutorial that I did way back. Nothing has changed.
