So I used my Zoom H4 to record a recent gig and a friend also used a portable digital recorder to capture the performance. He FTPed me the files and I imported both recordings into Sonar 7. Both are stereo, his was 16 bit, mine 24.
They play fine but they don't stay in sync with each other. I tried stretching the audio by CTRL dragging the edge of one until everything was in sync, but then the stretched clip sounds.... stretched (is this jitter?) I downsampled mine to 16 to see if that made a difference and it doesn't. It's just separate equipment, separate clocks I guess.
I have word clock inputs available, but no idea if they would help, or how. I'm hoping maybe there's a solution here that doesn't require stretching. Maybe there's software that specializes in this skill?
Any suggestions?
