  Please, final cut pro x rendering super slow suddenly

  Posted by Arturo Anzures on May 9, 2013 at 6:49 am

  Hello everyone, I am editing on a MacBook Pro;

  Processor 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7
  Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
  Software OS X 10.8.3 (12D78)

  I have over 900 GB left of memory. But I edit out of a WD My Passport 1 Terabyte external harddrive.

  It used to run extremely smoothly, then out of nowhere it is rendering ridiculously slow.

  Thank you, I am very desperate…

  If you’re sure it’s not being slowed down by an effect you’ve added somewhere then I’d suggest moving the project to a different hard drive to see if maybe your hard drive is failing. You could try a different drive cable – it’s not impossible for a cable to go a bit ‘weird’. You might also try trashing FCPX’s preferences, or completely re-installing the app.
