Found this video when trying to research stuff for my own videos! Extremely helpful! TYSM

Bro, you need to come back on YT

Awesome! I learned soemthing very useful today! Thanks!

3 years later, this video is STILL providing value! Thanks Sam!

Great video, super helpful, great explanation, and this is the first time I see an outdoors FC tutorial XD. I liked that a lot!

after & years my podcast listeners will love you

Hi Sam, one issue I'm having is that I record with a Panasonic camcorder but record sound independently with a Zoom H1N. I get a lot of audio drift when matching the two. I have tried syncing, making a multi cam clip with original camcorder audio and the H1N audio to try and sync but to no avail. Do you have any suggestions to either overcome this or get quality sound when using my camcorder for interviews (from a distance where cables may not be my option)?

I love your videos bro

Good tutorial. Give me the right info I needed to tweet my audio. Thanks Sam. PS Would you every want to appear on my livestream?

Great vid ! How do you apply the limiter on more than one clip ?

FCP is completely stupid, because if you now automate your volume curve on the clip, it does this POST limiter instead of PRE limiter (which any normal person would want).

Awesome video! Thank you!

Thank you soooo much !

Such a great video, thank you!! Easy to understand, concise and informative!

Sam, do you have any other places online where you are producing content? Even if it is for clients. I just want to check out your work. I have a feeling you are doing great stuff. Pretty please.

You know... this is why I don't think I will ever stop going back to basics. After a long time I found myself just feeling good about the audio levels of my content again and this video (which I am sure I saw a couple of years ago also) brought me back to the basics. We adopt bad practices without noticing sometimes. Some people think only big channels can help, but this clearly shows we are all in this together. Thank you Sam. I don't know why you don't have more content. This was and still is great.

Thanks for this tutorial! Can You tell me how You record sound from Mac? Are You using application for routing audio?

You, sir, are a life saver! Last night, I was conducting a video deposition over Zoom and unfortunately the doctor’s audio was lower than the attorneys. Since this is going to trial in 5 days, I was having a small panic attack until I tried your method which has worked a charm. Thank you so much!

Great video

awesome tutorial

It seems that with 1 camera or multiple cameras, impeccable timing wins the day. Of course 1 camera is easier on the budget rentals, but rapid-fire dialogue or repartee shot live with multiple cameras to a live mix on the fly or livestream with ISOs should be easier to get to a final product with less editing time. Both have merits to stay in budget.

This is a great tutorial. Still seeing FCPX videos where the audio in the actual video is not that great... this is 3 years old but still much better than all the other recommendations and plugins

I'm totally confused. My FCP project audio runs hotter than suggested here (high green, but not yellow or red), yet when I do an output and make an .mp4 the audio seems too quiet. And what is strange is when I upload the .mp4 to CZcams, my video plays quieter than other videos, so I'm worried that my audience will have to raise the volume to a high level just to hear the audio. This whole output audio process is maddening because I never know what is a good level for my videos, and how to output them correctly so the audio is normal.

Does this tool also boost up quiet parts of the audio to what you set the gain to?

this sounds great. but im sorry. the water in the background made me need to pee myself so much lol

You have no idea how much I appreciated this video. It helped me quickly add some great audio to a video presentation. Thank you!

watched this in 2021 lost the video and finally found it again still one of the moat helpful videos ive ever found!

well explained, i was searching for more

Wow this is great. I've avoided the limiter because I didn't understand how to use it. Now I do and like the results.

Hi! As far as I know the recommended db for music is around -18 but I this limiter won't allow me to lower the volume below -10db. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot

thanks. I never want to film from one angle because its such an amateur move

Quick note here : If you follow his method for youtube video, your video will be too quiet. Actually if I right click your video and check stats for nerds, we see that you video is -5.1db under. You should aim at -1.5 output level maximum. More than that is not necessery (for youtube).

The trouble is that angles where the presenter is talking, but not looking at the camera, but way past it, totally suck.

This advice saved me big time this afternoon! Many, many thanks!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Dude! #LifeChanging (not a joke)

I’m On my way To give you a hug.. where are you right now! This just saved me hours of time…. Thank you!!

I want to make a music video using multicamera angles but using one camera only. is that possible??

the tutorial starts at 1:42

Can you do this with a camera phone?

Thank you!

Awesome! Thank you. Very well explained and helpful. Makes a huge difference in my audio. 🙏

This was so helpful. I didn't even think about a script. That's a great idea.

Excellent info. Very clear, concise and exactly what I was looking for Subscribed.

GENIUS

yo i keep coming back to this video cause it's to the point, informational, and i need not spend money on some expensive plug in. Thumbs up from me! 👍😌

ahhh kiss my ass with all that bullsh*t just buy another damn camera dude

i hope you do this for a living because youre awesome!

Very helpful video, not sure why you stopped making videos but this was well done and we need more from you!

Great video however I am having a strange issue with my mic audio and the limiter....it doesn't seem to want to work for my mic audio. My gameplay will stop at 0db as advertised, but my mic audio will go over the threshold. I had to raise my mic gain pretty high but even with gain at 0 it still goes over the limit. Help.
