An Apology



None necessary! It's not like we've been inundated with info over the last month, though that's surely about to change...
I hope things are looking up for you in RL. Looking forward to you getting back into the meat and popotos (not *my* meat and popotos, understand!)![]()


Thank you Mjollnir, that means a lot to me. Also, yay! my mini catch phrase seems to have stuck!

what editing software are you using to track the audio?
Your background music track is way too loud, it drowns out the dialogue, it makes it hard to follow.
keep up the good work!

I'm using Camtasia because it's free. If there is a better free editing software i'd love to have it![]()
I've only experience with adobe premiere. But there are open source options that look pretty powerful.
lightworks: http://www.lwks.com/ for example.
It's just a matter of how you control the multi-track audio. My opinion background music should be just that, in the background. Barely noticeable, and definitely non-interfering with the dialogue. Any software that deals with multi-tracking should have independent audio controls for each track. Adjust the levels.
Adobe offers a free full feature 30 day trial of any of their software packages. Check out Premiere. Just to see how powerful the tool is. It's very expensive to buy($500-800) but gives you an idea of what to look for in other video/audio editing suites.
Check out entry level video software like sony's Movie studio series (they also offer trial versions). Entry level software starts around $50.00 but just from reading around the interwebs the Movie Studio Platinum 12 is a pretty comprehensive package and retails for $130.00
It might seem a bit pricey but might be worth the money in the long run especially if you're going to continue this series post release, or team up with other community members to create ongoing videos. Or just as a hobby.
I hope i'm not coming off as over critical, I think you are doing a fantastic service for the XIV community, and hope you continue to do so.
