Recording everything with open source: Audio with Audacity, video with OBS Studio and the combining / editing with Shotcut... An experiment to see if I can do decent recordings and how to get it all to sync and match and fall nicely together :)... I downloaded the MP3 of the video, muted the video in youtube, muted the audio recordings of OBS and recorded the mic over the mp3 (ctrl+a to select the audio, and then press shift+rec to record in a new track at the selected area... Then export the recording (after adjusting the volume to blend nicely) as an mp3.... Open shortcut, import the video (without sound), import the mp3... Put both files in the timeline, sync the video with audio so that lyrics and image match - trim it down to where the mp3 starts and ends... Export as aac 264 mp4 lol... And upload to lbry :D If you did all that, you've done something creative and productive with your time (Y) Do you find this useful? Or do you like the end-result? Will anyone ever see this? haha... That doesn't matter, creativity is good and healthy! I spent my time discovering, finding out new things and learning how to get it done :D So I'm happy! Thank you for visiting :)
