Hi Isa,
This is the correct way of operation, which I use all the time:
1) Mark your In point and out point on the clip
2) Press F to make it a favourite
3) Repeat for any new ranges for In and Out, followed by F. This will create ALL the favourites
4) At the top right change the view selection from the default of “Hide Rejected” to “Show Favourites” and hey presto, all your individual favourite ranges will be shown as separate sub clips.

Thanks for the feedback. 🙂

Hey Mark, – thanks for that feedback. Very useful. Unrelated to voice iso, how do you like the Track E Recorders? Reliability and quality. Cheers,

I wonder if you could compare both of these to the similar feature in Izotope RX9 or RX10. I would be very interested in the results.

Hi Ken, I can think of a number of alternative approaches, but they will need a bit of testing at your end.
- Buy KYNO. It isn’t cheap but is invaluable. It can export sub-clips, then you can delete the original, after verifying that the sub clip export is working for you.
- Look at HANDBRAKE, which is a free program. It’s useful for transcoding, but may have sub-clip features too.
- Open the files in VLC, another free program, and then export sub-clips.
Let me know what you end up doing,

Good review. For me however the “benefits” are a waste of my time/money and I think the LG is better value. If one had an open budget and price was totally immaterial, then sure, the Apple screen would be a slightly better choice.

You can only upgrade ram on Intel based Macs, due to the fact that the Apple silicon architecture’s key design is that all ram is on the same chip as the cpu’s and gpu’s, in a unified memory design.
Back to the original question – when I had an iMac Pro plus a MBP, I was forever trying to keep them in sync, with installing updates, plugins and syncing data. An absolute hell! With just having a powerful M1-Max MBP, I no longer have those issues! Hallelujah. If I am going to be away from home, just unplug it and when at home, plug in the external monitor and network. Also this way I have a 2 monitor setup at home – laptop plus external. It is working very well for me.

Hi Glenn, – yes I am very pleased with my choice, except I wish I had got 64GB ram, but cost is just too high. Just beware that some programs might not work on the Apple Silicon and Monterey.
The budget of $2.5k might be a bit tight IMHO. I would recommend a similar path as what I had done, namely don’t waste money on 2 Macs (iMac + MBP), but get a 27″ LG Ultrafine screen and then use the remainder of the budget to get the best 16″ M1-Pro that you can afford. I would not waste good money on yesterday’s (Intel) technology. Of course you may have a very different approach, but that’s my recommendation. Let us know what you decide in the end.

Whereabouts do you live? What kind of budget are you thinking about? How do you see your use case in the next 3 years? i.e. planning to go to 4k or 8k video editing, Is speed verses cost a factor and which do you prefer? Do you want to move to an Apple Silicon platform?
FYI: I moved from an i7 27″ iMac with1 TB SSD and 32GB ram to an M1 16″ MacBook Pro with 2TB SSD and 32GB ram, coupled to an LG 27″ 5k display. Storage unchanged, provided by a Thunderbolt 3 connected Promise Pegasus with 6x4TB drives, plus Synology NAS for backup/archives.

Have you tried to just importing the files as is?
Do you have Apple Compressor or the free Handbrake program?
