Audio/video editing software for Windows
-
I know we have a lot of IT-savvy folks on here, so here's the situation:
-
A good friend of mine is music director at an Anglican church that has now gone back to "remote/online" services.
-
These services have, in the past, included choral pieces with multiple singers (N<6) who record their parts independently (while listening to a master track), that are then merged into a single audio/video file..(See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYBliPhLAE0 for the kind of result we've had, although there aren't our people.)
-
This was being done by someone using "acapella" software by Mixcord. This runs on newer iPhones and iPads
-
The person who has been doing this is retiring. I've been asked to take over.
I have a high-end Windows workstation that would have the horsepower to run pretty much any a/v software. If the artists send me video files that are synched to a common master track, what would be good software for Windows that would allow me to merge the audio and video content of those files, as well as (rather tediously) slide each file in order to synch to the rest? I don't expect that this kind of software would be free, but I don't mind buying it, or buying a subscription.
Any suggestions you have would be very welcome.

@eobox91103 DaVinci Resolve (https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve/) is a complete workstation that can do both advanced video and audio editing and I highly recommend it. It has a free option which includes 99% of the functions you would expect a video editor to have.
Although, since Resolve is not open source, I will also suggest Kdenlive (https://kdenlive.org/en/) which is an amazing FOSS video editor with great capabilities.
Overall Resolve may be an overkill if you just want to stitch video with audio, but I would still suggest you give it a try. -
@vancer Thank you! It's going to be fun exploring this stuff.
