    MacBook Pro 2018, 15 inch gets very slow AFTER using heavy apps?

    Hi guys, I have a 15-inch 2018 2.2 Ghz MacBook Pro and it's been running whatever the latest Big Sur has been for the past few months. These past years, this Mac has been instantaneous in its operation. If I do something like work and export in FCPX, it can slow down a little while the app and...

    High exposure video

    Hi, I filmed some footage on a canon g7x mark iii and the exposure comp was set to high. All the footage I filmed is too bright and white now. I messed with the color and exposure setting in fcp, although I can't get it to not look too bright. I included the clip.

    Final Cut Pro audio out of sync after exporting

    So, audio sounds fine and is matched up exactly how I placed it when I play it in Final Cut Pro but is off-sync when I play it in QuickTime or YouTube after uploading. How do I fix this? I placed the scenes to match up with the audio every 4 bars or so on the kick drum. Hope this makes sense...

    M1 Mac mini 16 gb Ram vs i7 7th gen 2017 MacBook Pro 16gb Ram

    I’ve been researching this new M1 Mac mini 16 GB RAM and I’m curious how much of a difference I’ll actually see while using it vs my current i7 2017 MacBook Pro 16 GB RAM. I’ll be using it for 4K Final Cut Pro weekly vlogs, my buddy’s Theme park and travel vlogs, and eventually maybe even a home...

    PSA: USB C NVMe SSDs too slow for 4K HDR from iPhone 12

    On the latest version of Final Cut Pro and Catalina, FCP playback is super smooth but there are lags when navigating the timeline, making cuts, and there’s an odd lag between hitting the spacebar to play the project and actually playing. All interactions take two seconds, example: if hitting...

    How to import/export 4k (Canon 1DX Mark II) to FCPX

    I recently began capturing video with a Canon 1DX Mark II. 4k clips vary between 60 to 120fps. I discovered that FCPX does not recognize 4k files. By this I mean that the largest format option for export is 1920 X 1080. I conducted a quick search and it appears this is a known issue. All of the...

    Digitizing from MiniDV tapes, audio is always out of sync

    I'm digitizing a bunch of old MiniDV tapes, which play fine in my old DV camcorder, but when I digitize them using iMovie (latest version) or Final Cut Pro (latest version), the audio is always out of sync in the final files. Has anyone seen this before, and know how to resolve this? In FCP I...

    FCPX using more than 70GB of RAM

    Hello everyone! I own a base model 16" MacBook Pro, and have been frequently using Final Cut Pro X for a video editing class and my personal projects. In it, I don't do too awful much, at most compiling a two minute video with titles, transitions, sfx, and a bit of color correction. However I...

    Final Cut Pro 6 projects: import to FCPX or find FCP 6?

    I've got some old FCP 6 projects I'm hoping to open. I've got FCP X, but my understanding is that won't import FCP 6. Any suggestions? Anyone know where to get FCP 6?

    Final Cut Pro - Cannot Try/Buy without Mojave

    I've been going in circles trying to get a trial copy of Final Cut Pro. I'm on High Sierra and you CANNOT get a functional copy of FCP off the app store unless you run 10.14.6 (Mojave). Before I plop down $300 for a piece of software, I like to at least give it a trial even if its crippleware...

    Hello, I currently have a EVGA Geforce GTX 680 GPU and final cut pro x seems to export very slow. 4 minutes for a 1 minute 4k clip. In Adobe premier pro, same clip takes 1.5 minutes. I believe I have the same settings in both programs. (Screenshots below). I also notice that Adobe uses more...

    Mojave on MP5,1: FCPX with AMD GPU

    Hopefully the people involved with this discussion elsewhere will join in here, as I do think it's interesting conversation, although not entirely appropriate to the original thread. Optimised/proxy media work as I'd expect, this was purely a test to see how working on raw h264 footage would...
