HELP! Question regarding recording audio into iMovie through a USB interface...?
I have a MacBook Pro with the 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor running OS X 10.4.11. I've got iMovie version 6.0.4.
I'm trying to film myself playing guitar in iMovie while recording the audio through a microphone into a usb interface. I have a nice microphone and really don't wanna have to use the onboard mic, as it sounds infinitely better.
There's two different issues I'm trying to work out.
1. When I have the audio I'm recording going in from the usb interface, the audio sounds great but only plays back through the left speaker. Any way around this?
2. Is there a way that I can play along to an audio file that I've already imported into the project?
What I'm trying to accomplish is a really clear sounding video of me playing along to a song. I want to be able to import the song first, and then record through my usb interface while playing along to it. And during playback, I want my recording to play through both speakers, and not only the left
The reason for this set up is that I want to avoid the typical guitar cover vid scenario of someone turning their home stereo speakers and guitar amp towards the webcam and recording the audio that way.
Thanks in advance, any help would be greatly appreciated.
