Problems with nested timelines
Hello,
We have a small problem when we nest timelines in another timeline. The audio (just music in AIFF format) sometimes is not what it should be. We levelled it in our main timeline but then when we nest it its not levelled again. we can’t find an explanation does anybody know what’s the solution for this problem?
Kind regards

Did you adjust the audio level after you had already nested the timeline into your parent sequence (that is, you opened your nested timeline, adjusted audio levels, then closed the nest)? If so, try forcing the nest in your master timeline to rerender. Slide the opacity overlay of the nest to 0 then back to 100%. Then with the nest selected, do a CMD + R to rerender it.

We did force render the whole lot after making any change, but that won’t work. The fact is that the problem does not occur every time you play the timeline in which you’ve nested the timeline… Do you have any other tips?

you may have a corrupt render file or something along those lines. You could trash your preferences, render files, cache files, etc. and see if that clears up your problem. You could just start by deleting your render files and rerendering and see if that solves your problem, or just clean house all at once. Your project file could be corrupt as well, so you could open a new project, and copy over your edited sequences and reimport your media.
If you have extensive customization of your preferences, do a search here on the Cow for FCP Rescue. It’ll save you a lot of time resetting all your preferences after you trash the preference file.
