Default go pro work flow

I am struggling to get a good work flow for recording video with a GoPro Hero 5 and combining with audio recorded in reaper (i.e. me playing guitar).

My workflow is always disjointed and my video and audio seem slightly out of sync.

Can someone share their best practices and how they set up the camera and reaper projects?

Thanks

I do 2 things:
- Set 48k sample rate and correct video frame rate so nothing has to be resampled by Reaper.
- At the start of each take, clap your hands. This makes syncing recorded audio to the video simple.

Yes, those are great hints. I just want to add that it is not a good idea to set a frame rate in the project settings that differs from the source rate. The same applies to rendering. Just use the source frame rate to avoid timing problems.

And take a look at Reapers video forum. There are many threads with hints and workflow descriptions which could give you additional info.
