Final Cut X has a multicam feature that does this. But you could also just line them up to the music and sync by hand. No need for timestamps or anything, just make fine adjustments until the video is in sync with the music.

I have this song that I'm working on and decided to switch it mono to hear what it sounds like. All the vocals and drums sound the same but all of the software instrument synths and pianos are hollowed out and sound terrible. I don't have them panned or anything so I assume it's the sample (I'm...

I'm using Logic Pro 9. The vocals are kinda dry because it's just a rough take of the song and all I added was very slight reverb. :)

Yes, I used a pop filter for this. To be honest, this is the farthest I've ever recorded vocals from. I usually and very close to the mic and it captures more of a bassy tone. To experiment, I moved further back to knock out some of the bass.

Hey, I've done a bit more work on the track and would like thoughts on it. I took the percussion advice and it cleared up room in the chorus. I also added a shaker on the chanting parts and added a piano melody over the 2nd verse. I'm not sure if I like the piano part or if I should add it to...

This is mainly so I can get an idea of what the song as a whole sounds like... since I'm just one person doing all of this. But I'm having trouble coming...

I use Final Cut X for my split screen effects (Youtube: KatieHullMusic). I find it's easier to do without templates and it gives you more customization of how it's split. You can get a free trial on Apple's site of FCPX.

I use an Alesis DM8 to trigger the software instruments in some of my songs. Other times, I use the finger drum pads on my Novation Impulse. If the beat is too complicated to play on the finger pads, I'll go for the kit.
