  • Miss Matching Sequence Settings In Same Project

    Posted by Mark Fanjoy on March 21, 2009 at 9:33 pm

    Hi guys. Quick question. My entire project is pre set for Apple Pro Res 422 (HQ), 16 x 9 24p. I have a doctor testimonial to edit shot in 4×3 SD. When I create a new Sequence for the cut down FCP prompts me to change the Sequence settings to match the video. Do I say Okay to this without disturbing the settings in the other sequences, or does FCP make this a universal project change?

    Related to this, can I later insert the sequence block into the main show timeline with the same question?

    Thank you in advance for your support.

    [Mark Fanjoy] “Do I say Okay to this without disturbing the settings in the other sequences, or does FCP make this a universal project change? “

    It only affects that one Sequence.

    [Mark Fanjoy] “Related to this, can I later insert the sequence block into the main show timeline with the same question? “

    No. The Sequence will not change if you insert a nest into something that has already started editing.
