audio plugins for mixing music on FCP
Hello CC!
I’m a film-maker and editor and am trying to use FCP to create a music mix tape as a hobby project (I’m aware its not the best option for this kind of project but I’m more adept at FCP than anything else).
I wondered if anyone knew of a plugin that would allow me to create flanges, echos, delays etc in much the same way that you would with logic or qbase, a bit of internet trawling hasn’t revealed much.
Thanks in advance!

I believe some of the izotope plugs work in FCP (Ozone specifically.) I had some installed in Protools and they would show up in FCP and Soundtrack Pro aswell. Rebuilt my system a month or so back and haven’t reinstalled them yet so i can’t verify,, but am 90% certain they work in FCP.
For a cheap and dirty echo/delay in FCP: dupe your track and off set it by 1 fame, then again and again.. each time lowering the gain and reach time sliding by 1 or 2 frames.
Also EQ out some of the lows and /or mids on each instance slightly increasing/decreasing some of the frequencies.
or for funky delay boost specific frequencies on some of the instances.OR better yet.. spend 5 minutes playing with Soundtrack Pro and open yourself up to soooo many more possibilities. It’s not too hard a program to grasp.

FCP is hopeless as a sound mixing tool. No bussing or decent dynamics, frame based editing. You will get a better result with a free program like Audacity.
If you have the Final Cut Suite, then Sound Track Pro is your friend.
