Re: creating a concert dvd - Mike Gordon

to see the waveform, go to User Preferences > Timeline Options and check the "Show Audio Wavsforms" box...also, you have to be zoomed in on the timeline a certain amount to see any detail in the waveform

considering yer dealing with multiple cams, you should not need to alter the speed of the video or audio tracks in order to sync...fwiw, typically yer only gonna have vid/aud a handful of frames off per hour, and since you've already got cuts in yer video footage it sounds, each clip of vid should be short enough to not experience too much lag...just sync each "chunk" of vid to the audio, and fill in the gaps with the other source footage

using color correction to get a more similar look from the 2 sources is a bit more difficult that poeple usually think...built-in plug ins such as Color Corrector, RGB Balance, Brightness/Cnotrast [Bezier], etc will give you the tools -- but remember less is more!

here's an excellent site for FCP, including tutorials on color correction:
