Hi Phil, forgive my ignorance, can't you just move the music project until it is in sync with the video's audio? I'll be looking at this shortly as work has started to slow down, my YouTube clips are awful so that doesn't help matters.

Just to add that when you import the video, you will need to first move the audio track from the video to where you want it to sync up to the audio in the project. Locate the audio from the imported video then, go into the event view and change the time in the column. Then, close out the event view and select the track from that point to the end and nudge the audio until it matches the audio in the project. Once you have that working and the audio is synking perfectly, open up the event view of the audio track from the imported video and locate the time column. Press the enter key to obtain the values in that column and copy them. Then, go into the video view and locate the time column then, update the time to where ever the audio starts from the imported video in the project.

As for shooting just make sure the frame rate is the same on the camera and on sonar, 30 FPS in the US and 25 FPS in Europe.So Phil,do you mind sharing a bit of your knowledge on the subject? I'm interested in synchronizing a video to one of my Sonar projects. I've never done this before, but I assume the first step would be to download the video from the video camera to my DAW: then import it into Sonar. I read the lesson in CT on SMPTE, so I have a basic idea of how to go about it. I will be working with a sighted assistant but I will only have the benefit of her eyes because she knows absolutely nothing about Sonar. Any pointers you can give me before shooting the video that will help make the sync process easier?
