Thanks for the video I'm hoping this fixes my issue. My problem is drift. I'm using the Sony A7s to output audio/video to a camlink type usb device. However I'm also going into the Sony with a separate audio cable from my guitar. I'm not sure if the drift is happening because of that. Or because OBS is getting audio and video from a single USB. Or if it was just the 29.7 vs 30 thing. Do you have any experience with issues bringing in both audio/video into camlink? Would it be better to put my audio directly into a separate USB slot and audio interface instead of just directly in? Appreciate your help
it works! Thank you. I had to retake the whole 20 minutes recording thinking the problem was the camera (sony a6400 was hot). Googled and found your video, now I have 2 recording to choose
What I don't understand about this is that when I record a separate audio file, I'm choosing audio recording file specifications like bit-rate and sampling-rate....not frame rate. So I would generally record at 24-bit and 48Khz. Where does this "recording audio at 30fps" come from? What digital audio work station sets frame rates for audio like that?
Yeah, that bit was not quite right. The audio doesn't have a framerate (apart from the sample rate). For audio you can choose whatever you want. The drift only happens when the video file gets assigned a different frame rate in the project set-up than it was recorded in. The audio file has nothing to do with it. But he probably just mispoke. The gist of the video is still right.
my canon eosm50 only shoots 4k in 23.98 fps. i set the audio to 23.98fps in fcpx but there is still audio drift right off the back. what should my settings be.
I am recording on my iPhone 11 for video and Audacity for audio. My camera shoots in 30 fps or 29.97 and what should I record my audio project rate in? 44000 or 48000? For them to line up perfectly. Thanks!
An absolute nightmare is RIGHT!! It is driving me insane! But I cannot find help figuring out the best way to resolve this when I am working with 2 videos, not just audio. So in my case I am using my iphone to record my face, and my macbook pro's quicktime to record my screen. I have a Samson q9u usb mic connected to my mac so that audio is my main audio for my lessons. However, I need the audio to be in sync not only with my lip movement, but after I accomplish that which is painful enough, I need my lips (b-roll video from iphone) to match the actions I am performing on the screen. So far I cannot find a reasonable way to do this and this is the first time I experienced "drifting." I had the b-roll matcher perfectly to the a-roll then 6 minutes into it the drift starts to happen. Only thing I can think of is to remove the audio from my b-roll all together in one project, then bring that muted video back in with the a-roll screen recording and try to sync them ... I don't know. This is giving me such a headache. Any suggestions?
Yikes, that's a tough one. It seems the two videos are recording at different frame rates from each other (a common problem). They either need to be the same frame rate or (and this is a nightmare) you need to start splicing the second footage to continually match it with the main footage. I've done this for a large (4+ hour) project, and it's terrible. No easy outside of matching frame rates.
Man U just saved me so much time. I kept finding videos on synchronizing clips wit audio but when I did it, I kept ending up wit audio drift. U nailed it for me. Thanks bro! Subscribed!!!!
Yeah All anyone has told me thus far is to go buy/use a red giant app but I don't and can't use premiere pro or any adobe crap, im an FCPX'er for life. I sub'd because of this vid. Thak you.
This saved me so much time, thank you so much. My solution was to change my project back to 50p since that what I'd recorded it in, and use the iphone voice record sound, and it worked perfectly. thank you!
How should I correct the audio drift issue when converting a video to 'WAV' and importing it into Logic Pro X? I recorded a performance simultaneously with Logic Pro X and a camera, but when I tried to sync the audio from Logic Pro X with the video, I noticed that the video's audio gradually drifted out of sync, even though they initially aligned.
so i'm still having trouble. i shoot on my gopro, and when i edit i make sure i'm at 29.97 fps. the sample rate of both the project and audio file are 48khz. no matter what i do, i always get drift. ALWAYS. it's the most continuous and frustrating thing about editing. i feel as if i'm following all the tips and doing everything correctly, but i constantly get drift. i don't know if it's because my project is too long with one continuous audio file, but nothing seems to be working, and i'm in dire need of help before i throw my computer across the room. thank you in advance.
OMG!!!!! Thank you for this! Yes you just saved my life! I almost gave up TH-cam. I wish I had found you before I lost my mind and deleted all of the footage I worked so hard to get. :( Just subscribed!!!!
I already recorded something very important. The video is approximately 6 minutes long. Is there a way to post-correct my slightly out of sync video and audio? Thanks!
I need help I have 2 shows where even if I change the fps to 25 I'm still out of sync Even if I manually fix a part it becomes out of sync in another part
I'm doing one of those virtual band vides and everyone recorded their videos on different devices/cameras, so I don't think this method will work for me, unfortunately. Can't seem to find a solution.
You simply need all your devices to record the same frame rate. This is why so many videographers need to work with cameras within the same system, they will have the same selection of frame rates. You can shoot with a variety of gear (most cameras shooting 24 FPS actually shoot 23.98 as an example) in many circumstances. Research actual frame rates before using the gear and you can mix brands with reckless abandon. Thanks.
If the microphone is recording separate then it'll be the same issue. In other words, that the frame rate of the video is different than the frame rate of the project. We would treat dash cams the same as camcorders in that sense.
Hi, I kindly ask for help: I recorded 29,97 fps, I have my timeline set at 29,97 fps but I still get audio drift. Audio metadata says the audio is at 60 fps..what does fps for audio means? How can I fix this? Thanks in advance
Have you ever been seen in the same room as Professor Brian Cox? You have similar hair, and also, you are talking about ~TIME~. Jokes aside, thanks, this was very informative.
@@lyili3428 you can find it on the track setting in ableton. Disable the 'warp' it is highlighted in yellow by default, which means, it's turned on. Try switching it off before you do a new project.
It would have been nice for him to show us an example in Final Cut. Because unfortuneltely even when you do what he says to do. It still drifts for me. Super annoying. Hopefully, this fixes the issue for some of you folks. I'm going crazy still smh
"And this happens when you record your audios seperately from your visuals" NO IT DOESN"T!!!!!!!!! It happens in other situations too! I am pulling my hair out trying to figure this out. Even your video is out of sync for me. My audio from long videos on my phone drift. No seperate audio. The drift changes when I edit them. It changes depending on what player I use! What the heck is going on. Why does every resource assume I have a seperate mic!!!!
Audio drift is a mismatch between the frame rate you actually record at and the rate of the project in your NLE. It can happen at 24 FPS or 30, it only requires a difference in the two rates. So, if you shoot 24 FPS you are likely actually recording 23.98 FPS and your NLE rate should reflect as such. Thanks.

Fancy seeing you here haha :)
This was such a simple fix but I literally want to pay you for having this answer. I can't express how much I appreciate this.

How about footage on a dash cam? Its the same issue audio is not in sync with the video on a few files.

What if you recorded a video with your phone but theres a sync error when I'm playing it
The problem i am facing is in the start would be ok but in the middle of a video, it gets desynced
how did you solve it!
@@lyili3428 did not find a fix, but in ableton one needs to remove the 'warp' yellow highlight . Try it might work for you.

I use a tascam dr40 at 48khz 24bits. when I record video in 30 or 60 fps my audio doesn't sync but when I record at 24 fps audio is ok
I'm going to try this today. Im having to manually sync something because of this type of issue. Do you have any more suggestions?
Or advise

What if you record in 25fps and still experience audio drift?
Audio drift is a mismatch between the frame rate you actually record at and the rate of the project in your NLE. It can happen at 24 FPS or 30, it only requires a difference in the two rates. So, if you shoot 24 FPS you are likely actually recording 23.98 FPS and your NLE rate should reflect as such. Thanks.
Camera Lessons Online Thank you. Will investigate. 👍🏾
T h a n k Y o u !!!
My camera records in true 24p and my audio recorder is set to the same. Drift still happens. I hate video
