A method and apparatus for synchronizing event media content including remote audio and video content recorded by spectator or fan users at an event performance, wherein the remote audio content is recorded from the speakers of the event performance and directly from source audio content recorded at the performance by originators, clubs, etc. The source audio content has higher quality than the remote audio content recorded by the spectators. The higher quality audio source content replaces the lower quality audio content recorded by the spectators. The resulting source audio / remote video media content provides a pure recording clear audio quality for the user's personalized event memento.
