| Creating
Movies out of your Game Demos using Adobe Premiere |
| Recording Game Demo Sound |
| If you want to have the sound of game
play in your final movie you will need to record the audio of the
demos separately and synch them up later on in Premiere. You would
do this by using windows built in Sound Recorder or another audio
recording application like Sound Forge XP. |
 |
| Multimedia Properties |
| Check to see that your sound card is set as the Record
Device in the Multimedia Properties in Windows Control Panel. If
it is not, you need to select your sound card from the list using
the drop-down arrow next to the currect device. The photo below
shows my Sound Blaster Audigy set as the recording device on my
Windows XP system. |

| Next check to make sure that the Wave device of your sound card
is set to be recorded. Double click on the speaker icon in your
system tray. Select Options - Properties. Then
click on the recording button. Make sure there is a check in the
box next to Wave. It might be a good idea to uncheck Microphone
if you have a live microphone hooked up to your sound card. |

| Next start the game in windowed mode,
switch over to your sound recording application and start recording.
Switch back to the game and run your demo. When the demo is over
switch back to the audio application stop recording and save the
file using an appropriate name like the name of the demo. You can
later import this file into Premiere and sync it up on the timline
with your demo footage. |
