    Are you recording with an iPad or computer? And, are you referring to the settings to use as far as when you’re editing? I will say that your microphone, breathing technique and especially the environment you’re recording in will make a difference.

    @Jay-eg8md well, there is definitely going to be some experimenting here. Once you’ve gotten a decent mic then it’s mainly going to making sure you’ve got the right levels…not too low and definitely not too “hot” where you’re clipping your audio. Post production is where it all happens and I can say that it’ll depend on the voice. I was doing a podcast with three of us and I had to edit a little bit on my track, my other (male) cohost needed some more tweaking, but the female host on the show didn’t need anything. I didn’t touch her voice. Because of her mic and her vocal pitch, it was near perfect.

    Hello kevin, i want to ask, For daily use and regular video editing, which prefer mba 2 base or better choose mba 1 base model? Please ur recommendation thanksss

  • @KevinRossRN
    @KevinRossRN12 күн бұрын

    Well, for daily (non-video editing) use, either one is going to be great. I still use the M2 MBA every single day for office tasks and my wife is using the M1 MBA every day for the same thing. As I might have mentioned in the video (it’s been awhile since I made this), but for regular video editing these machines will be able to handle some sustained workflows, but it really depends on what camera footage and video editors you’re working with. I’d still recommend a MBP for regular editing, but if you have to use the MBA then at this point I’d go for the M2. I would recommend upgraded memory if you can. Otherwise you may be finding yourself having to close programs or restarting the machine more regularly to have a smoother experience.

    No, 16GBs. I’d honestly recommend the extra memory for this type of work flow. Many people test these with base specs, but after you have the machine on and several apps running, you’re going to be experiencing some throttling. These machines are efficient, but for heavier tasks it’s really best to invest in a bit more memory if you want a solid experience.

You’ll then sync up those spiked waveforms from the clap.

    @ArmyBarbie That codec should be pretty efficient to work with. I think when these machines first came out they were “screaming” through these timelines when compared with their predecessors. Aside from working with proxies and transcoding the footage before, just make sure you’re minimizing any other demands on the machine (closing other programs) due to that 8GBs of memory. With the constant iteration of these video editors they offer more features, but start to demand more from the machine. That spec of MBP should be just fine. It really should be a night and day experience because of the video processing capability in that particular chipset.

    The extra memory will certainly help with Lightroom. It’s what I use and it’ll take a good portion of it. The quick videos will be fine on the MBA. The advantage of the MBP is the fan and that thermal envelope. For sustained workflows you’ll notice a difference, but with the shorter videos I doubt you’d even have that concern. Honestly I often recommend going with a little more memory. I don’t know anyone that has regretted it. I still use my M2 MBA every day and do some light editing from time to time. I still haven’t upgraded my M1 MBP because everything I’ve thrown at it, it just tears right through it. But again, for your use case right now, the MBA.

Down the line plan to use DJI Osmo pocket 3 4K footage (I am guessing 265 is a no go...) Good enough or should I swap it, if I can now, with the M2 16GB?

    Thanks! So have you tested it with AE yet? As far as the OSMO those compressed files are probably going to give the machine a run, but you should be able to scrub through your timeline. The base model will hit that swap pretty quick, which you won’t notice until you start adding more to the timeline and then sprinkle in those effects…and of course if you’re running any other applications. I still use this device daily, but not so much for creative work. I may run some Lightroom or photoshop every now and again, but I will say that I’ve typically run several browsers with a hundred+ tabs open and the 16GBs hasn’t let me down.

If you’re still recording the audio through the interface to the iPad and then the iPhone video is separate, I assume you have a video editing software you’re working with (or will). I would just take that audio clip from the iPad you recorded on and move that into your video editor, and then the video (with the raw audio) will be placed on top of the audio in the timeline. The easy way to sync this up is to clap really loud at the beginning before starting the show and then you can see these wave forms in the audio tracks from the iPad and the iPhone. Line up those spikes in the track, and then once they’re synced, then just lower the volume on the audio from the phone and you should still be synced up with the better audio from the iPad. Hopefully that is what you’re asking about. And if not, I’ll take another crack at it 😁

    @@KevinRossRN Thank you so much for your quick and detailed response!! I use iMovie but for some reason it gets synced up in the beginning perfectly but then as the video plays (they are usually around 1.5 hours) the sync gets off, not by a lot but enough to definitely notice. So I was wondering if there was a different software besides iMovie you recommend for the iPad that would work? I haven’t gotten my laptop yet but if it will make my editing process easier I am definitely going to look into it. I have heard Adobe Premier Pro is perfect for syncing but unfortunately I need a laptop for that…. Also!! I am looking to upgrade my camera eventually for videoing, is there one you recommend for podcasting videos that doesn’t break the bank? Thank you SO much for all of your help. I really appreciate it.

    @yelinadavis For an iPad editing experience I’d recommend either LumaFusion, Davinci Resolve for iPad, or Final Cut Pro for iPad. Davinci is free. I would stick with the iPhone camera for as long as possible until you feel like this is something you really want to do and sustain. However, once you’re ready to move up, something like the ZVE10: geni.us/AlphaZVE10 This will be a camera you can grow into and that has the option for interchangeable lenses.

    What’s the price difference where you are between these two cameras? I just ask because I still own the 6400 and it’s still great, but having a stabilized lens is helpful for those handheld shots. You can certainly do those shots without a stabilized lens with the proper technique.

    @sanyamshitole well, the one thing to consider is an all-in price. So, if you have the IBIS, which offers just a slight edge over the 6400, then you could have more options for non stabilized lenses that are often times cheaper. What lens (or lenses) have you considered?

    The time can be one of the biggest challenges for sure. Once you establish a routine, it does get a little easier, but it still takes quite a bit of juggling if you have a full time job, family, school, or anything else that might need your attention.

    @@KevinRossRN As you can see, I already have a KZread channel; mostly gaming and animation, but I want to expand. However, as I mentioned, Space and Time is a problem. The films I could make on a budget for right now is stop-motion (I already have one planned and try to have all the shots done in less than a week, It would be a 15 to 20 minute short). The money would be from a tip jar thanks to viewers that see the final result. I already have a degree in Video Production so I've learned and I've kept learning even after college by watching tutorials and such like Film Riot and your videos. My biggest roadblock is my own family where I now believe they want me to get out of Indie Filmmaking and start wearing a Grochery Store Uniform. With my mental condition, I wouldn't be able to handle it.

    @zeroryoko999 Oh, I didn’t see that. Since I mostly respond to comments on my phone the interface doesn’t really show much on the profile…Not like on the computer. I can understand that there are family pressures, and it can certainly stifle that creativity when you’re stressed about that dynamic. If you studied video production, what about finding a couple of creators that you could edit for to bring in a little cash just to show (your family) you’re making something of that degree? Stop motion is something I’ve never tried, but I’m certainly interested in, and very much respect the time and effort it takes.

    For powering the MacBook Pro, would you recommend using its magsafe power port & 140 w power adapter and not rely on the TS4 charging capabilities? Thus, and please correct me, the Thunderbolt 4 host port would strictly be used for data transfer.

    Well it’s not just using it for charging capabilities, but keep in mind that you’ll still need to connect that port to the computer because you need the data (information) to be passed through the computer via that data/power/computer port on the dock itself.

    @jacksonj3082 you can use the MagSafe connector while it’s docked, but the dock itself (because you have to plug into the MBP) will be charging the computer anyway. The “computer” connection on the dock is specifically for just the computer.
