November 4, 2019 at 8:40 am in reply to: FCP newbie Q: change bitrate to reduce export’s filesize?You can import compressor settings to FCPX & then choose a preset from the share menu.
Alternatively, you can export your master file from FCPX to compressor & transcode from there.Chris Stevens – Waterline Media. Marine Production Company.

Sorted it. Just a case of ignoring the message “Final Cut not responding…” and letting it update in it’s own time – about 15 mins!

Although it’s regarded my many to be a bad idea, I’ve always upgraded during editing a project & never had a problem of any consequence. Good luck.

August 24, 2016 at 7:52 am in reply to: Thoughts on the vocal enhancement equalization option in FCPX?I use an Apex Aural Exciter, a plugin from Waves Inc. I was a sound engineer before becoming an editor, and the Apex was and still is a great way to enhance a voice, vocal or instrument, without bringing up the overall gain. Used to use it for TV commercial soundtracks to make it appear louder than the others!

Have solved the issue.
Opened the adjustment layer, from the text browser, into motion. Changed nothing then published it to FCPX.
All ok now. No idea why?Chris Stevens – Waterline Media. Marine Production Company.

Using the adjustment layer from the text browser. Didn’t know there was an alternative? Please advise.
Applying a letterbox crop.

Gamma shift appears in FCPX UI, on monitor via Black magic Ultra I/O & on exported ProRes file.

Sorry. Correction to my last post.
The GoPro H264 clips behave in the same way as the XAVC. i.e. the adjustment layer forces a gamma shift.Chris Stevens – Waterline Media. Marine Production Company.

Thanks for the reply Noah.
The format is XAVC HD @ 100Mb/s (from a Sony FS7). I also have GoPro H264 clips in the edit which behave the same as the XAVC.
Have tried disabling the adjustment layer then applying an effect, to force a render, this does not create a shift in gamma though?Chris Stevens – Waterline Media. Marine Production Company.

I find I’m using it more & more. Mainly for seeing how much & where the additional footage is either side of a transition. Don’t tend to use it for normal trimming though.
