Any tips for sync'ing sound?

Hi

When you're filming using a camera and microphone, you can use a clapper board to make a noise and clear visual queue so you can sync up your sound and video.

I'm recording video on Bass directly to Amplitube3 and Video separately. Any tips on sync'ing up the sound and video? I'm finding it very tricky.

Thanks

I'm recording audio in Amplitube3. Video is being pulled into iMovie. Stripping the sound off the video, and then importing the AIFF audio file.

i don't know imovie very well but you can move the audio in small increments as far as i can remember. what's making it tricky? have you done the clapperboard (or similar) to make a sync point?

Well that's just it. I'm not using a microphone. Just sync'ing video and bass audio.

I've tried plucking a string, but the low rate of attack makes it difficult. Also I'm not really practiced at the software :)

i'm not clear what you're asking. seems like you need to make a clear visual + audio sync point.

Yes that exactly. Between that - and this video I just found[url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gVL-pMv1FM"] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gVL-pMv1FM[/url] I think I'm good.

I shall do two slaps and pops as my sync point. It seems the think I was missing was the button to turn on Audio Waveforms.

Thanks though.
