[Ti] video mixing to website through Ti-book

[b]

According to Trevor J. Hutley:

>Can it be done ?    Has anyone on the List done it?

>Any URL that I should check out?

Can it be done? Easily.

Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro, DVD Studio Pro, Avid, etc, any of 
which can deal with multiple video inputs and serve as an editor.

On the audio end, things are both easier, simpler, and more complex 
[when it comes to syncing the audio with multiple video edits. To 
record the audio is simple, but bringing it into the Ti-Book from an 
independent audio source is tricky. Why not use built-in audio tracks 
from both cameras? That way they're 'synced' to footage, and they can 
always be 'divorced' from the tracks, re-treated for sound quality by 
BIAS Deck, Peak, Spark or any of a number of other audio apps.

Final Cut Pro offers a built-in version of BIAS Peak, I think, at any 
rate it has good audio editing, mixing, on-board. The audio tracks 
will each synch to the EDL [Edit Decision List] that is used to make 
the final output. Even discrepancies in 'level' from the 2 cams, can 
be equalized [or 'balanced' in the UK] after the fact, so to speak.

I'd go with FCP and Peak, but there's a free version of Digidesign's 
ProTools, that is an awesome audio mixing/mastering app, also 
http://www.digidesign.com/ptfree/  if 8 tracks would do the job [and 
I cannot see how that many would be necessary, given your friend's 
project] then check ProTools free, very high-grade, and free at that.
