More than one way to Skin a Cat, (Caterpillar Bulldozer) as my Dad used to say ... the way I do it works for me but may not for you ... but here's how I go about it.

I use webcams or even iPhones to capture both audio and video
PreSonus Studio One Professional DAW
PreSonus 1824c Interface, (for getting sound into the computer and DAW)
Final Cut Pro X to edit video and put it all together.

My process:

I currently just use a couple of webcams, with Logitech being my favorite and what I use for overhead shot, and Nexigo for face on shots seems to work really well. On rare occasion I've also used cell phones and then bring those files into my computer.

I record audio in my DAW, (Digital Audio Workstation, recording software, there I MANY, I use PreSonus Studio One) I also record both Audio and Video simultaneously with my Webcam using Apple QuickTime to capture the webcam audio/video.

After I've edited the Audio captured in my DAW, I then bring those files into a video editing program in my Mac, called Final Cut Pro X, where I sync the audio from the DAW with the audio from the webcams.

If interested you can view some of my humble results here and good luck with how ever you decide to approach this:

Complicated? ... there is a learning curve of course and like I alluded many options for how this is down. Once you're past all that and set up it takes less time than the time I spent writing this out.

Thank you Larry. If my explanation was too complicated, (likely , many splainers better at it than I ) there are many YouTube videos on recording though maybe not specifically Pedal Steel, but the process is about the same. If I can help, reach out.

Moved to Recording. I think you'll find more people here to explain the recording process.

[Bill McCloskey]

At it's simplest, you only need a smart phone. It gets more complicated after that

[Duane Becker]

Say you record from a smart phone of someone playing a song, how do you then post the video to the forum here?

[Walter Killam]

I don't think this forum has the bandwidth to host videos. You will probably need to upload to to a hosting site IE: YouTube, and then post a link on this forum.

YouTube upload instructions:

https://support.google.com/youtube/answ ... %3DDesktop

Once you have uploaded the video navigate to the video in your browser, copy the url, and paste it into your post on this forum.

As with all things internet, be sure of what you share, once your video is on the net there's no going back!

Good Luck!

Thanks Walter for the info. I figured the forum didn't have the capability, as I've never seen any icon for that. The link you gave helped too...
