[Gary Pollard] ” how likely is a metadata solution to fix the fact that I can’t?”

It could work if the meta tags could be mapped to a virtual mixer with touch automation. I have to believe that a virtual mixer is in the short term plans for the product. They can lift the code from the upcoming Logic X

[David Battistella] “Let’s be nice. We are here to help each other. “

Agreed, though if I’m disrespected online I will hit the bully between the eyes at my discretion.

[David Battistella] “Sounds like you are having some issues with where things are finding themselves on teh timeline. Yes. It’s true, you can place audio above video in FCP X, like you can put all the VO tracks above the primary storyline. It’s designed this way. “

That’s not what I’m talking about. It’s about an audio clip and video clip occupying the same space, location, XY coordinates or whatever on the main storyline. In other words one is hiding behind the other. Only to be revealed after further clicking around the timeline, or restarting… and then the top one may become translucent and reveal the other one who has been playing hide and go seek.

Definitely a bug, substantially similar to alpha bugs I saw when I was alpha testing Cakewalk Sonar 1.0 when audio and MIDI clips did the same dance.

I still love FCPX 🙂 🙂 🙂 <~~~~ for all those who inexplicably may be be getting defensive and getting ready to type something to the effect that “I’m using it all wrong”

[Geoff Dills] “I’ve had the same behavior where suddenly I’m hearing audio without seeing any representation of any audio clip in the timeline only to discover it was hiding behind a video clip. I only discovered it after deleting the video clip. Other times I’ve witnessed an audio clip in front of a video clip and I had to reconnect it to get it to behave.
“

exactly. On this particular project I’m working on sometimes all of the sudden 8 or 9 audio clips will do this.

No, all it means is that you haven’t experience the bugs that have manifested on my system.

[alban egger] “Clearly sounds like you have no idea how FCPX works…

Actually from my perspective this statement would more reflect a heavy dose of assholeness on your part.

FCPX is a high potential product, but there are project conditions that can lead it to melt down.

FCPX is version 1 software and it definitely acts like it 🙂

[David A fenton]

Whoa! Many thanks… I’ll give it a go.

Did you get memory from Apple or a 3rd party?

Can someone make a mondo installer for all these goodies? It’s hard to keep up. 🙂

[David A fenton]

Crazy…you’re on a roll 🙂
