Adjusting your audio delay with CueCam’s built-in delay calculator

Working with a secondary video/audio source

You can set different audio delays for different inputs.

You can add another audio input by clicking the line below the other inputs. add-source

You can then share a second camera and use the Delay Calculator on this second input to keep them in sync.

For example, I (Michael) sometimes play live music on stream and I have a multi-channel audio interface. My music equipment is elsewhere in the room so I set up Shoot pointing at it.

I can synchronise this second camera to my big sound card to make sure the music stays in sync.

This can all be independent of the main mic and camera used for my CueCam presentation.
