Topic: Help with audio on video and Introductions

Hello first off I have been using chordie for years and in the last year I have been throwing my 2 cents in here and there.
My name is Wayne 54 years old been playing seriously since my mid forties and I am from Gillette Wyoming.I play new & old stuff,lots of folk,alt and some country.Chordie is the best sight on the net for me,give me the lyrics and chord progression and I try to hammer it out.

Now to my problem:

I just recorded a video,with a canon camcorder and downloaded with Roxio 10. Creator, the video and audio turned out good but
I only get audio out of the left side speaker. my pc controls are balanced and every other thing I have played on it is Ok.I used an external mic on my camcorder  is there some settings I'm missing.

Thanks Wayne

Later, Wayne P

Hi Wayne,

My guess is that your PC is set to record in mono. The normal convention is for a mono recording to use the left speaker. However I am not 100% sure, so I will be pleased if anyone can offer you more help.

Hey Roger,  I guess I am a bonehead it was just a bad speaker connection.I  was making things to complicated. The Audio turned out pretty good but I need to do some more fine tuning before I show the world my work,

Thanks Again , Wayne

Hey Wayne,

The easy answers are often the hardest to find. In these days of sophisticated technology, connections seem to be the last thing we think about. Glad it is sorted.

By the way it makes me a bonehead too for not suggesting it to you lol
