How do i record video and sound when guitar hooked up to my computer with my camera?




Zac


I have a toneport gx guitar port/program on my computer so i want to keep the guitar sound i have in my program instead of using and amp to record a video. So how do i shoot myself playing the song when the sound comes from the computer. Is there any way i can hook up the sound from my computer directly to my camera?
Thanks in advance



Answer
Since you didn't tell us which camera you are using (manufacturer and model number) we have no way to know if the camera has any audio-in connection or capabilities.

Possible work-around:
If the toneport gx guitar port/program can record what you are playing, then capture the audio there. Hopefully, it allows the audio to be save to a format your video editor can deal with.

Record your guitar playing with the camera. The camera will pick up whatever audio you and the guitar are making.

Import that video (and the audio) to your computer and video editing application.

Import the audio captured from the toneport gx guitar port/program to the video editor.

Sync the imported audio with the video. Mute the audio captured by the camera.

Best Video Camera Brand For Recording Guitar Playing.?

Whats the best video camera to use for recording people playing guitar & thats compatable with Windows Movie Maker


Answer
For compatibility with WMM, go for a MiniDV camcorder - the brand doesn't really matter. I was assuming you were going to record in your room rather than on stage, so you'll need an external mic to avoid recording the camera noise. If you need to play loudly, you'll need some manual gain control to avoid adding unwanted distortion - camcorders don't go up to 11.
