This sounds like fun - I'm actually doing similar work (music for church services) since the pandemic hit and Ubuntu Studio has been the right tool for me. > I've done a little, including a video that merged a video track shot > with a smartphone with an audio track recorded using a Zoom H4 using > OpenShot; it worked well.

It can handle all sorts of compositing/effects like other nonlinear editors. I've looked into using Cinelerra-GG myself but haven't tried it yet. Glad to hear you could get it compiled though. > The result of this > process is then sent to the soloists and the final merge of audio tracks > and video tracks is then done on something like Cinelerra. I'm not sure about Cinelerra but mixing several audio tracks in a video editor can be tedious and ineffective. I do all my audio mastering in Ardour and drop the final stereo file into a single audio track in Kdenlive. Cheers, and good luck on the project(s)! Tim Plimpton
