Just wanted to share this video with you guys. I’m making a pure Moog version of a piece from this excellent soundtrack by Daft Punk. I’m playing all the parts, sequenced in Logic.
I hope you enjoy it!! Read description for full details.

Nice job!
One thing that struck me about this soundtrack is that they made a ton of money when a lot of the cuts on the album were very short.
Thank you Erick! I’m glad you like it!
I don’t understand it either… it’s an amazing soundtrack, one of the best Daft Punk’s job, and unused during the movie.
I’m planning a lot of covers in the next months, and this soundtrack is a very good one to do it. 
I wanted to thank all of you who watched this!
It got a lot of views in just one week, if compared to my other videos. Thank you!
Great cover!
Just a quick note, up until about 2:44 the video and audio are just a tiny bit unsynchronized. After 2:44 it’s in sync.
But otherwise great sound and picture quality ! Oh, and great playing, too. 
Thanks for sharing.
I have found it quite hard to get audio and video to sync unless you use the camera’s mic input and the camera as the sole audio source.
My older videos used the point-and-shoot camera’s mic, which had crappy video and audio quality.
My newer videos use the mic input on a canon hd camcorder, though I have had varying issues getting both speakers to play (mono mic input).
My workaround for both of the above issues was to use the multiple to split the audio signal, and use the camera’s onboard mic to pick up audio and the instruments’ outs to go into the board and then to logic via the usb connection. I would line up the video’s audio with the high quality audio from logic, and then mute the video’s audio so the result would be that the video plays and you hear the audio from logic. This results in high picture quality and high audio quality.
I have 2 problems:
So, all that being said, I don’t think that youtube audiences really have a problem with music oriented videos as long as the audio is good. Latency or video quality isn’t really that much of a problem unless it is critical to the context of the video. If you are just talking about modular synth knob-twiddling then latency will only be noticed to the trained eye.
So I’m really interested in someone telling me what equipment would rectify this situation.
Then theres also the newest hurdle to overcome which is the fact that I now have a full-frame DSLR and the movie from that can’t be imported into imovie, not to mention the focusing issues or the extremely deep DoF of the lenses I have to go with it.
Video equipment is a much more expensive tier than audio equipment. I think I need a corporate sugar momma.
Sorry this is somewhat off topic.

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoy it!!
I know the thing about the audio/video sync, but it was getting really hard for me to adjust it, since FinalCut is a very memory-eating monster program and I was getting lag with my old white Macbook (2010 - old?). I just couldn’t make it work…
@EricK
I have already tried using the camera’s audio input, but I don’t like to work that way… much work for little improvement. I have to agree with you about audio quality in music oriented videos, it’s really what matter! I don’t think that synchronizing audio and video is very hard… the problem was really with how I recorded the videos and how FinalCut deals with them (it was my first video done with FinalCut).
Video equipment tends to be very expensive. In Brazil, almost anything related to audio/video is very expensive. A Little Phatty here is more expensive than a Prophet 08 in the US (something around U$2400+). So you can see that I do my best with what I can afford/have.
Thank you for watching and commenting!
In that case, you did a splendid job ! I know how convoluted that software can be, believe me ! I gave up on it and switched back to iMovie… Much less powerful, but simple and good enough for me. Only drawback is, I have to convert my .mts files from my camcorder to a format that iMovie will load (mostly .M4V), whereas I could load them directly in Final Cut.
I want to record music, not spend days editing a music video on my Mac Mini Aluminum… 
I think I’ll be back to iMovie… FinalCut is very CPU heavy and consumes an insane amount of memory from my hard drive. As you said, easier to use, more simple, and gives you almost the same result (since I’m not a pro on making videos, right?).
My camera already records in .mp4, so I don’t share your problem.
I’m getting my Sub Phatty pretty soon, I’ll share other videos on another post.
Cheers!
I missed this when it came out. That’s an impressive cover!
