Q. I have a digital camera that records video but the sound quality isn't good. Is there a way to plug it in to my laptop and set it up to where it records video onto the computer while recording sound from a mic?
I plan on making drum covers and I need good sound quality in order to do so. If you know a way to do this PLEASE tell me cause i really need to know.

How do I record myself on video playing drums?
Q. I want to play drums and set up a video camera to record me, but at the same time actually sound somewhat decent.
Also to record myself doing drum covers to songs.
How do I do this without mic's?

A. most video cameras have a decent enough mic for your needs. If you set up your stereo speakers on either side of your kit facing out, and turn them up loud, you should be able to pick up both the drums and the music on the video camera mic. Make sure to put the camera on a stand in front of the kit with a wide angle shot to pick up everything in the shot without moving around.
The best way to do what you want is to use a mixer and 2 good overhead mics in stereo with the music going through head phone monitors that you can hear well. Feed the line out of the mixer to the audio in of a dvd recorder and the video out of the camera to the video in on the dvd recorder. the mics should be set up on either side of the drum set at a decent height above the kit. use the monitor out or control room out of the mixer to feed the headphone monitor amp.
This second method while sounding much better requires some technical ability to pull off correctly.

How do I improve sound quality with Audacity?
Q. I have some sound files from video cameras that don't record sound well (such as cell phone cameras.) What effects should I run and what settings should I run them on. I would like to improve voice, drums, and guitar. The bass I already know how to improve. Sometimes the sound is so loud that it is distorted on the recording also. Is there any way to fix this with Audacity?
A. Not really. You can process things to clean up line noise, pops and clicks, or even phasing issues, but if the overall quality of a recording is bad there's only so much you can do to polish it. The old mixing engineer saying is:
Garbage in, garbage out.
If you want better sound you really need a better recording, especially if you've got clipping distortion in this one (when things get too loud). Clipping distortion is something you can't fix.
