[RWP] Time alignment of audio from multiple sources

[Scott Chesworth]

Hey folks,

I'm sat here mixing a multitracked live recording. There are a bunch
of close mics and a couple of DI sources that were tracked with a Zoom
R16, and the band would like me to use the audio from a Zoom Q3 camera
as ambient mics. But here's the thing, I'm having no luck at all
getting the audio from the Q3 synced with the audio from the R16, and
I've not struggled with this task before, so thought I'd ask whether
anyone here had a decent workflow for getting the job done. At the
moment I'm just nudging in small increments and listening. I can get
the alignment so that it sounds fine on one part of a song, but then
skipping forward a minute or so I'm hearing flamming on pronounced
drum fills etc. It's almost like the frame rates of the two sources
are different or something.

Any thoughts or advice?

Scott
