    Dare, Dare!!

    Fingers crossed, FCP and Logic still running fine and dandy so far.

    Hey Jennifer,

    Check out my config below, it works as fast as I can usually!

    Rendering in FCP7 is real quick, Compressor takes as long as it takes to make and drink a cuppa unless your doing doco’s/feature films then its a good time to rest those eyes and ears whilst its cooking.

    17″ MacBook Pro gives you the SATA express card slot which opens up the world of fast transfers to large external drives (2Tb for around £200/$400 gives you over 7500 mins of DV video)

    Hey Kristian,

    Try adding an apple pitch effects filter to the audio clip?
    then adjust your keyframes for pitch and scale to suit.

    Hey,

    How are you capturing? port/settings? internal/external hard drive?

    You could try changing your capture settings to ‘non controllable device’

    I had a problem recently which I thought was a bad tape but turned out to be an extra .5 metre on my SATA cable to my external Lacie. Switching to the Macs Internal Drive in system settings for capture/scratch disc cured all.

    Hi Kimberley,

    if you’re dragging from the viewer to the canvas, as you hover the clip over the canvas your editing options should appear ‘insert/overwrite/replace etc etc)

    if your trying to drag the clip from the canvas to the viewer (which is actually trying to re-position the clip way off in the x-y space) then it disappears as you describe,

    I’m using FCP 7 and it’s as simple as ‘File-Export-Quicktime Movie’, of course you could always ‘Send To-Compressor’ if you have that installed.
