Multicam with Sony Vegas 10

[norbinho]

Thanks for all the replies guys. I got it all synched up and I switched to Multicam modus / but it only shows camera source one. The other camera sources aren't being showed.

Before you go to the cam mix mode you have to select ALL sources you want ot be in the mix
So make sure all video (not audio) sources are selected!!!!

Ok - maybe this is what I'm doing wrong, which button should I use to select all the sources? I tried several things but maybe I don't do it correctly.

just click on one source and then press strg+a, then everything is selected and you can use the multicamera function. on top you will see the split screen then with the different sources.

I didn't understand so good what do you mean about switch to the drum beat....you need a track with the drum beat?

changing the video source/angle when lars hits the drums

so at every change you've to split all the sources and change the "take"?

maybe you remember my jonschwil mix from 2008, i did this at the beginning of creep when lars hits the drums:

i think if you want to do things like that in a mix, it's better to mix the video manually and not using the multicamera function. seems to be too complicated then.

Well I don't see the reason to do a so big work just for a drum beat ehehehehe.
Anyway, how you do that? Split all the sources at every beat?

yes, it's really a lot of work, but i think it looks cool, chris...there are mixes out especially mixes of maiden shows which are done in one day and people don't even select the best parts of every source...i think then it's useless doing a mix...one should take time to make a cool and enjoyable looking mix.

how to do that? activate composite level for every source and then you can manually select which source will be seen at the moment and which ones not.

indeed mixing fast is not a good way to do a nice work.
Mixing takes hours and a big patience and passion on what you're doing.

About the composite level, I will give it a try
