You're giving up already? Really? I think perhaps if you have someone there, but you do the work you will feel more confident. I know you've got a lot of mechanically inclined fambly members...perhaps they can supervise over a case of beer or something.

That's actually what I'm hoping for. In negotiations with my uncle to help me.

so after editing on imovie i realized how easy it is to import audio into the video. i also played with several mics to see how well i can 'improve' the sound over the built-in mic of the gopro.

the mic input regardless of which mic you use (internal or external) on the Hero2 sucks. it has a bad ringing high-pitched noise floor that apparently gopro does not know how to get rid of. for external mic, input level is too low, SNR is crap unless i increase gain using pre-amp or place mic next to something super loud like a muffler.

so, im going to begin using my portable tascam digital recorder and sync it on imovie for short clips.

Got coffee?
Good morning Brantly
I'm just getting to my coffee now. Earlier than yesterday, but later than I like.

That's also recommended when using your HD DSLR camera for video. GJ

So, I went to the big city to self clear my body kit at customs. Then I delivered the proper paper work back to the shipping company. I could have picked up the parts then and there but thout it would be better for them to deliver them for me. The parts should be in my garage by noon tomorrow.

While I was in the big city I went to my chiropractor. He was able to squeeze me in and have a look at my back. Apparently two of my ribs had popped out. I'm all fixed up now. A little sore, but doing better.

I might start removing body panels tonight after Mini GaleForce goes to sleep. We'll see.

Thanks, Mr. onzedge!
I'm really pumped for this show. In addition to the multiple stages we're presenting/demoing on, I got a standing O from VP's during our MC training test, so I am ready to rock the mic this weekend!
