Music and Video Editing - Steve85 - 06-22-2010
I am looking for some software that can convert iTunes formatted music to something I can use in Windows programs (Movie Maker), be able to add voice overs to music and videos, and create my own tracks out of portions of mulitple songs. Not mixing really, just tie together multiple songs. I found this suite of products and started experimenting last night with the audio editor. It was fairly easy to create a loop and get my voice in the track. The suite is offered as a subscription $39 annual, $59 lifetime. Seems like a good deal, I don't know that I would ever be able to outperform their capabilities.

What got me on this is a training program I am doing has run / walk intervals. I found a series of podcasts that have a voice over to tell you when to run / walk so you don't have to stare at your watch and keep track of the number of intervals or whatever. The music he uses is...tolerable. I want to do my own and unlike a playlist I'd like to mix up the music with portions of songs and essentially create one 30-45 minute track with voice overs to guide myself. Kind of like a podcast without all the URLing and RSSing.
Anybody else do this stuff? What do you use?

Are we going to see videos of a vette getting passed by a mini?

I use Sony Vegas to do all my media editing: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/vegaspro">http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/vegaspro</a><!-- m -->
For any conversions required, I use SUPER: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html">http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html</a><!-- m -->
If you combine SUPER and WMM, you could get what you need with $0 out of pocket.

Thanks, I'll download SUPER tonight and check it out. I'll see if it or WMM have the music editing I'm looking for. I know I can attach music to a video in WMM, and do some editing to it in that context, but don't know if it will let me do the music independently.

I think you can just lay a second audio track on top of the first to get the voice over. It's a lot more intuitive in third party programs, but I'm pretty sure WMM does it.

The only wetness was in your tighty whities.......

Mine were fine, but I bet your student experienced some leakage while you were at the helm.

Thanks for the tip, I'll try it out tonight.

I downloaded SUPER and was able to easily convert some iTunes songs to WMA so I could use them in WMM. Imported them to WMM and under the tools menu chose Narrate Timeline. You have to create a small opening in the music track to begin the narration. If the narration is longer than the opening it will put the music in the background which I like. At the narration, the music will pick up at full volume, not where it is when you stop narration, but at the end of the last clip. Not what I expected, but kind of like it.
When the story board is just music, it allows you to save the "video" as a dedicated audio file.
I still need to convert it back to a an iPod format and try loading it.
So a good solution that is a bargain at 100 times the price. Thanks :thumbup:
