Aha! Well there you go Ed, you need to upgrade your XDCAM Transfer to 2.9 or later which is when write back to the U1 was introduced. I’d recommend grabbing the latest version (2.11) available here:

What version of OS X are you running over there Ed? I believe there may still be some direct compatibility problems with the U1 and Snow Leopard. That may be a factor if thats what you’re running.

Version 2.11.0 says it does not support Snow Leopard. I’ve tried my intel machines. desktop and laptop, and my older G5 system and neither work with FCP Log and Transfer.
I think you might be confusing Sony’s XDCAM Transfer app and FCP’s Log and Transfer interface. Sony/Apple do not support the use of FCP’s Log and Transfer window for the import of XDCAM HD (XDCAM EX yes, XDCAM HD no). Sony’s XDCAM Transfer app v2.11 is, on the whole, compatible with Snow Leopard, although now you may need to install the FAM driver from an earlier version (2.5.1), which you can get here: https://www.sony.ca/xdcamex/software.htm

Hey Rui
They are both good, get whichever one offers the best / most immediate local support should you ever need it. If you are in the US then thats probably AJA, if you;re in Europe or elsewhere then that mat be Blackmagic.
Other than that, as Jason notes, try to identify your needs more precisely and you should be able to better narrow your choices.

Check out the Compressor / Limiter plugin ( Effects > Audio Filters > Final Cut Pro > Compressor/Limiter)
Whilst you are at it, take a look at these docs by Jon Chappell:

Hey Carl
Your description of the issue suggests a configuration error in the Dalet / Dalet Xtend plugin… unfortunately I have no direct experience of that system so can’t really offer any proper help, but thats where I’d be looking.
