    Thanks for your great videos! I'm having latency issues when recording zoom classes - I'm using a Logitech Brio webcam along with my Mackie ProFX10 mixer for sound. Everything works but there is a big delay in the sound. I think it's the camera that's slowing things down as switching from 4K to HD helps, but there's still a lot of latency.

    I am so glad I found your tutorial. I am going to be producing a series of promotional videos beginning next week and due to the pandemic, we must record all of the testimonials remotely. We are using Zoom, of course, and I've never recorded interviews in Zoom. Our interviewer will not be in the videos, and the "record a separate audio file for each participant" is exactly what we need. I am editing in post in Camtasia, but I may throw all of the audio into Auphonic first just to create consistent sound files, assuming you can batch your audio. Thank you so much! I will be sure to subscribe to your channel ... I may need more help on this project.

  • @arnaudcalistri2433
    @arnaudcalistri24332 жыл бұрын

    Thanks a lot for this video, which was really helpful to me today. I may add one thing I discovered: if you record in the gallery mode, you'll get a 1280x720 video as you said. But if you record with one participant being pinned, you'll get a 640x360 video... which is exactly the same size as each window in the gallery mode until 4 participant. So there's no need to record with a pinned video in fullscreen, hoping for a better quality (as I thought): it won't be the case. For editing convenience after an interview, it's far better to record in gallery mode and then in your editing tool, zoom fullscreen on one participant if you want that, anytime you want/need. That being said, thanks again!

I think when I have the budget I will go back to eCamm though, as it has many advanced features and higher quality recordings. But, Zoom seems like the ideal software in the meantime! Are we able to use titles etc live with Zoom or only in post?

    Jane, very useful tutorial on this subject. I particularly like your b-roll idea. Turns out, Screenflow does not support multi-angle or multi-cam like premiere so I would definitely use the iPhone approach. Good one. Do you use Audacity for all of your audio processing or do you have a DAW you like? I just upgraded to Ableton Live-10 since they had a flash discount the other day. Cheers.
