    yeah, same on this end

    you’d think markers would be something they’d want to come across in an XML
    i want it anyway!

    thanks, Shane

    “(I’m currently editing on the main drive instead of an external)”

    that’d be my guess as to what the problem is.

    how much free room do you have on the drive?

    [Andreas Kiel] “You can run multiple instances of FCP on the same machine as long you have several cores available.”

    interesting… (and sorry to be coming back to this after so much time)
    i have an octocore Mac Pro tower. how may instance of FCP would that allow?
    and would i need to set it up in a special way?

    it would be interesting to see how Resolve compares with these, too.
    it seems pretty fast to me, but my only comparison is Compressor v3.5

    November 16, 2017 at 1:23 pm in reply to: Fcp7 copy and paste without losing audio mixer level

    we might be talking about the same thing.

    in the mixer tool, which fader did you work?
    the one marked Master, on the far right?

    that affects the level of the sequence itself,
    and won’t travel if you copy the clips OUT of that sequence and into another one.

    the faders from the left, marked A1, A2, etc affect the level of the individual clips
    this levels WILL travel with the clips when you copy them.

    so if you were adjusting the master level, what can you do?
    not much.
    if it was a simple lift by Xdb then you can just add that to your clips,
    but if you were riding the level, you’re a bit lost,
    unless, as you suggest, you use the sequences as nests

    a simple copy and paste from one sequence to another will keep any effects you’ve added, including audio levels.

    are you finding otherwise? then you have a problem,
    and should maybe trash your preferences.

    oh, hang on, did you adjust the MASTER LEVEL of the sequences?
    yeah that won’t work!
    nesting will, but once you get past your simple export, presents other problems.

    what sort of media are you working with?
    h264?
    FCP doesn’t like that.

    When things get weird in FCP it;s time to trash your preferences.

    you’ll have to re-set them of course… who wants to go back to only 10 undo’s for instance?

    this helps:

    i still dont like the forum name though 🙂

    the other products to look into are:

    Blackmagic Intensity Pro ($199),
    Blackmagic Decklink Mini Monitor ($145)

    the intensity would give you audio outputs as well
