I’m looking at the options I have available in the FCP 4.5 bundle and I don’t see an audio gain filter in either the Final Cut Prod HD or Apple folders. Is there somewhere else that I should look? Has this filter been put into later FCP bundles? Can I download it from somewhere? It sounds like it would be just the ticket for my problem. Thanks.

I did re-import the original file. I did boost the signal all the way. I’m not sure what you mean about the ‘global level.’ I have also in a limited way tried to fool around with ‘compressor’ and ‘3bandeq’ filters. Those are where I think I might really solve my problem. I can’t seem to get them to work the way I want. I’d love to hear more about how to control those filters. Thanks for your response. Hope to hear more.

Thanks so much for the clarification between media files (QT), projects and programs. I feel much better now knowing that all my projects created using FCP4.5 and all my media files (QT) digitized on an OS 10.3.9 or earlier platform will be available after I move to my new, slick Mac Pro.

Just got off the phone with Apple folks and it appears that this system will handle FCP 5. Only problem I have is making sure that I have the right card, according to them. They tell me I need an AGP card. I am looking at my original quotation and I read – ATI Rage 128Bit/AGP 2X Graphic accelerator card with 32-bit-color & advanced 3-D features.’ Will that allow me to set up my son with FCP5 assuming my G4 meets all the other criteria?

Shane –
Thanks for the fast reply. I just went to the Dell web site and could not find the 2047 or the 2405 display. I did find the UltraSharp 2007FP 20″. Is that the one that you mean? It lists for about $470.

Thanks for your tip about the 8-bit uncompressed but that doesn’t seem to work. I’ll see what reducing the pic size does to the issue.

The two authorized repair centers I contacted both pointed out to me that this is a common failing of the DVX100A. In fact, there is a repair kit that will, hopefully, make a fix for $200. If not, the lens must be replaced – a $1000 repair.

October 26, 2006 at 8:57 pm in reply to: Mac Pro Quad Xeon first generation problems?

Walter, thanks. Good advice. One dumb question and one sad but true admission.

What is WWDC?

I still have a G4 500Mg dual coprocessor running FCP 4.5 which, after a shake out period, has been performing well. It’s the firewire external hard drives that I have purchased which have brought minor problems. No major meltdowns though.

I guess I have no excuses now not to buy a new rig. Also, I will pass along your advice to my friend. Maybe they will break down and buy their systems too.

Thanks again.
