Off camera sound recording

[John Redfern]

In the thread about Beeps, lots of posters said they would not use the on-camera audio anyway - or only as backup/ambient.

So my question is - and it's urgent. How do you guys sync the HVX with an external recorder?

1 - Record dual system; then line up by waveform/sound in NLE

2 - By Clapboard

That simple. Why didn't I think of that?

Do you find that with modern clocks there is no drift in short takes without having the TC locked?

Thanks

My average take is about 45 minutes to an hour (I'm usually recording classical/opera events). I generally don't see more than a frame of drift over that period...

That's very comforting. One less thing to panic about.

Thanks
