An audio program that will work well with Final Cut

Hello everyone. I posted a similar question online the other day but I guess through all the researching and responses I haven't found much resolve. So I was wondering if you can recall I purchased Logic Studio 8 this last week and have been hesitant to open it up. The reason is because I want as much control over scoring and sound mixing over my shorts as possible. In Soundtrack Pro 2 if I want to score a film I'm limited because I can only use the loops they provide. I can't make my own music (I guess that's called MIDI sequencing?)So my dream situation would be to import my short film or music video into an audio program and mix/score them while I'm watching them in a program other than Soundtrack Pro 2. I only mention Soundtrack Pro 2 because I've used it and I have had problems with it.
For example: If I import a Q.T.File from FCP Timeline into Soundtrack even if I select the FRAME vs. Seconds or Ruler ticks the timeline will not allow me to edit in frames.
Now that's obviously a Soundtrack question. However, Maybe some of you FCP Editors have experience with some software that might be effective for what I'm trying to accomplish with an audio software. Now besides Soundtrack Pro 2 which is included in Studio Logic bundle is there a way to score your project in another way in Logic while watching it at the same time? Also is there a more effective or comparable software to that of Logic Studio where the same intention can be accomplished? Thank you so much for your responses.

Pro tools is also an industry standard for doing almost everything audio wise in production. It is very proprietary and when I played with the free version I didn't find it very intuitive. But, It is an industry standard. It can be rather expensive for a complete setup.
I prefer Soundtrack Pro.

    Dear Adobe Community,
    I am looking for a third-party Affiliate Program that will integrate well with the Adobe Business Catalyst platform.
    The requirement is fairly basic, i.e.,  to track multiple affiliates and down-stream affiliate-to-affiliate referrals. Also looking to report and display these referrals an affiliate’s dashboard.
    We have looked into Affiliate Program Software, Affiliate Tracking Software Marketing and would like to entertain other options before making a decision.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! —Thank You!

    For what it is worth, I am a fan of NuGen, I have both SEQ 1 and 2 and two stereo enhancing tools (stereoizer and stereoplacer I think they're called). Since I have the SEQ 1 it replaces all Channel EQ's. And the stereotools sound great and very lush, in stead of the more usual cheezy combfilterthingies that pass for stereo enhancing tools.
    And I actually like the interfaces. Simple, but stylish, functional and ergonomic (in this case meaning you can see all parameters in a quick glance, no guessing at settings).

  • Does Canon XF100 work well with Final Cut Pro

    Does the Canon XF 100 work well with Final Cut Pro 7.03

    I have read the information about this camera and I have looked at several discussion groups.  Apparently you cannot edit in native format with this camera. This has been confirmed to me by a Canon rep.  You have to bring in footage thru log and transfer which means it takes more time as it converts.  I have never had to do this before.  Because I have always imported thru log and capture.  So because I was wondering if anyone out there can tell me if they are using the camera and if it works well inspite of it.  Or anyone has a better camera recommendation but in the price range of the XF100.
    Thanks,

  • Does Motion 5 work well with Final Cut Express?

    I have Final Cut Express, and I want to use Motion 5 with FCE. Do I have to buy Final Cut Pro X to use Motion 5?

    You can buy Motion 5 without FCP X - I have exactly that.
    You will not be able to send to or move around items from within FCE to Motion 5 however that is no different to Motion 5 and FCP 7!
    What you can do is create your animated movie in Motion 5 and output your final movie with/without transparency as needed so you can then import that into FCE and place on your timeline over the background video as required.
    Tip - decide how long you want your final animated clip in FCE and then when you create your Motion file set the duration to be the same or slightly longer.

  • I need a printer that will work wirelessly with Lion os

    Please help me find an all in one printer that will work wirelessly with the new Lion OS.
    I'm on my third printer...
    Thanks

    Exactly what did you do when trying to set up the printers? Did you follow the mfr's instructions?
    I also have an Epson (Artisan 810) and it works flawlessly - both wired and wirelessly. If I remember correctly, the instructions specifically said in order to set it up wirelessly, I had to connect it via USB first and then unplugged the cable at a specific point (following the instructions). And, the instructions included having to copy the printer's  MAC address (a series of numbers and letters) from the printer display panel and enter it at my router's (Netgear) online setup site.

  • Windows 10: I can't find a audio driver that will work with my HP Touchsmart 520.

    I am beta-testing Windows 10; It handles many HP Touchsmart operations well; but it can't find a driver for audio. I have tried many download sites; and Windows Update (which apparently does have some problems as well) and have been unsuccessful in a two-week search.
    I'd appreciate any tips, or direction on how to resolve the problem.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    I think many hardware vendors are working with Microsoft to get a good out come for all and specially for customers. Users don't want a product like Windows 8 or Vista, they want a rpoduct like Windows XP or Windows 7. Windows 8.1 (not 8) is much better but many users are still don't like it therefore from my opinion: Microsoft have to do something about that.
    Back to drivers, as mentioned above, vendors are testing. We can raise our voices but still have to wait.
    Regards.

  • Audio Recording that will work with FCE

    I need to purchase a recording device that would be pluged into the AUX channel coming out of a mix board. The PA anouncer, DJ and a crowd mic will be plugged into the board. I need to to know if anyone has any suggestions on a cheap ($100-$200) recoding device that I can import into FCE. I'm not sure if you can recod in any format and then format so FCE will accept it, or if you have to record in that format. Any suggestions?

    Maybe this is a stupid question, but have you thought about recording directly to your computer, perhaps to an external drive? There's is free (Audacity - http://audacity.sourceforge.net/) and inexpensive (Sound Studio - http://www.freeverse.com/apps/app/?id=5012) software which will do that.
    Depending on the audio inputs on your Mac and/or outputs on your mixer, you might consider the iMic (http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/imic), which connects to your Mac via USB.
    However you wind up doing the recording, FCE uses AIFF audio @ either 32kHz or 48kHz, depending on your Sequence settings.

    If your student is truly disabled to the sense that she can not be taught the morality of changing other people's devices without their consent, and you have to have all the student iPads publically available to her, then the best solution is to lock the entire iPad from her - enable a Passcode lock in settings so that she needs the password to use the iPads.
