I need to be able to sync. audio to video on iMovie..
Will this recorder provide a straight-foreword solution to synchronizing audio to my drone video using iMovie on my Mac, or would I really need a patch - program ?
If you set up the files as mp3 format, it should play nice with iMovie. The software the Sony comes with is for organizing your recordings and basic audio editing. Remember that the audio is only mono. I haven't used iMovie in a long time so I don't remember how hard syncing audio can be. I would try youtube and look on a how to guide. If you're having issues I would recommend trying Adobe premiere pro demo and see if you like it. I have used this program to sync audio to HD video and works really well, but it's pricey.
