Vegas External preview question...

[bart]

Does vegas output audio also through the firewire when monitoring on a external TV monitor?

 

[kplo]

No, it doesn't. That's been one of my pet peeves with an otherwise superior NLE (I'm on Vegas 4.0e). It outputs audio through your computer sound device only.
Hey, if Premiere can do it...

Hope this helps.

any suggestions on how to dump the audio while still playing the video portion of the project to a vhs?

Sure. If you preview out through Firewire, there's no sound.

Or, don't plug in the audio to the VCR.

opps...im used to saying "dump" as in throwing it onto a vhs...so let me rephrase....is there anyway to have audio and video put onto a vhs?

 

[David Jimerson]

Not using firewire preview.

Not directly, anyway. You can print to DV tape, and then run the tape out to VHS.
