Split Screen music: Initial success!

12/30/2019

I recorded a very short video in four parts and managed to accomplish the following:
  1. Four videos synced and displayed in split screen
  2. Four audio tracks captured on the H6 and synced/mixed.
  3. HQ audio synced to rendered four-way video.
  4. Uploaded to YouTube!
Nothing really to see, here; just an E-flat major scale harmonized with an add 2 chord. Just a test, but I am very excited! Hopefully I will be able to upload an actual quartet arrangement this week!

My best friend, Dave Williams II, gave me the most amazing gift: a Zoom H6 audio recorder! Now I have no excuse for poor audio quality in my videos, other than not having a clue how to use the thing...

...so project No. 1: make a simple saxophone quartet arrangement of Lennon/
McCartney's And I Love Her and track all the parts into the H6. Done! Here is the recording:​
​
To be clear, that took me four hours to record the two-minute arrangement.

Upcoming: adapting two or three of my compositions to saxophone quartet and recording those. Also another Beatles tune, probably.

Big upcoming: learning to make 2/3/4/100 video split screens of my arrangements. I downloaded Shotcut today. First I have to figure out the video, then syncing the audio to the video.

Those items should keep me busy for a little while!
