Multi-camera editing in Vegas Pro 9

[poundz42]

WOW! This method is going to make editing music videos soooo much easier and faster for me. For two years, I've been lining up my clips and using composite level, which is relatively faster that trimming clip after clip in the trimmer. But this is going to cut my edit time down more that half. Thanks for this.

AMAZING TUTORIAL! I've always wondered about this when watching movies and this clears it up for me! So I tried it myself and it worked very well. The only thing is the sound. I used 2 cameras. See because of the sound collected by both of my cameras there's somewhat of like a reverb undertone. Like a slight echo almost. Is there anyway to do this multicamera editing that switches to the audio of each original clip for every edit, rather than simply playing all audio simultaneously? thanks

[Sonysoftwareofficial]

Hi @techsuperman, thanks for your comment, it's always great to hear feedback on our tutorials. Glad we could help! How long have you been using Vegas Pro 9 for?

[techsuperman]

Great upload. Easy to understand. Been wandering how multicamera worked for a long time. Another much easier way of doing things I can tick off. Thanks!!

[torosax]

Hi there, I have a question for ya too... First off this video helps a lot!! My question though is after you've got it set as a multicam project. I have a shot or two that I want to have one video slightly opaque so that I can see two cams at the same time... is there a way to do that while in the multicam setting?

[Sonysoftwareofficial]

Right-click and normalize your audio events. That will fix things quickly. Hope this helps!

[filoclyde]

what about the audio - how do you get the audio to sound consistent when editing between numerous takes?

[Sonysoftwareofficial]

Hi dan13ldr, Glad the tips helped! Are you currently a Vegas user? Would be great to know which features and effects you like best? We'd love to see some of your stuff so keep creating and keep us posted!

[dan13ldr]
