May 11, 2015 at 8:25 pm in reply to: Anyone have opinions on Hawaiki AutoGrade or HyColour Pro?

The best thing about hycolour pro is the one click flourescent green cast remover and the vignette, which is better than the FCPX default one. If the current version is still 1.6 it’s fairly old now and I haven’t used it under fcpx 10.2so you might want to double check it still works.

If you’re only buying one colour correction plugin though, and colour correction is your number one use, then I’d advise color finale. I haven’t felt the need for hycolour pro since I got that.

That sounds like the way it works. go to the edit menu and re-link the files. Should only take a minute or two.

You can split the clip on the timeline to isolate that section and apply audio enhancement to just that portion. Cross-fade to smooth the transition. Personally, I’d use an audio app to fix it, as I wouldn’t put much faith in FCPX’s ability to deal anything but the most minor issues.

The Hawaiki products are all good. I use their Automatch plugin almost every day. i also have and like HyColour Pro and use it almost every edit. It’s a one-stop shop for simple colour correction. Hycolour’s only failing is that it doesn’t support 4k very well.

On almost every edit I’d use, in order of frequency, Color Finale, HyColour Pro and Hawaiki AutoMatch.

You can go to the library properties and change it from internal to any folder you like. Then tell FCPX to consolidate the library and everything will be moved to the new location.

May 7, 2015 at 1:13 am in reply to: FCPX – Synch Multi-Angles and Multiple Clips at Once?

One thing that can really help if FCPX is having trouble is to use the sync to marker option and just add a marker at roughly the same spot in each clip – from my experience it doesn’t have to be exact. Keep use audio for synchronisation checked.

I’d get FCPX to generate proxies, do the edit, then switch back to original media for export at 1080p and/or use FCPX’s built in Vimeo uploader.

May 4, 2015 at 9:47 pm in reply to: Tricky Question – looking for MultiCam Soecialist

I feel your pain… I guess my next question is (and this may just be ignorance on my part) but why can’t you just scale and keyframe the clip on the timeline side? Is there any real quality difference?

I always thought that on export Final Cut would scale up/down from the original media size so does it matter whether the clip is set to fit or fill or scaled in the angle editor or from the timeline? Aren’t all the options just entries in a database telling FCPX what to do with that particular source clip?

May 3, 2015 at 2:12 am in reply to: Can I select multiple clips and open their triangles at once?

You can open all of them at once – sorry, can’t remember the keyboard shortcut off the top of my head – or you can open individual but as far as I’m aware, you can’t just open the disclosure triangles of multiple selected clips. I think FCPX just inherits it’s disclosure triangle behaviour from the rest of OS X.
