FCP7 Taking an mp3 file (sound effect from imovie library to compressor then import to FCP7

I am clicking and dragging from iMovie sound effects into FCP7 in it's original format mp3 then I am sending it to compressor and using a 48-16 codec
to compress it then I am going back to FCP7 and trying to import it but it does not show up on either my internal drive or external drive. Am I missing something? I have done this all before. Thanks.

Hi
I'm much more lazy - as I have one way to handle Audio and it always works for my projects.
• I convert all to .aiff 48kHz 16-bit - or use Audio-CDs .aiff 44.1kHz
Everything I convert to this - by use of the free program - Audacity
or from iTunes - by burning out on an Audio CD (still .aiff - no .mp3 or ect)
These files works greatly in all my Movie/DVD projects.
Yours Bengt W

  • Soundtrack -missing sound effects from the library

    Hi everyone,
    I have recently installed Soundtrack onto my computer ( I have FCE HD) and the content onto an external HD.
    Unfortunately I have noticed that there seems to be a fairly large section of sound effects missing, including "weapons" and "explosions". The reason I know these are missing is because there are greyed-out buttons for them where there is other ones present such as "Sci-fi" and others.
    Can anyone help me find where these are- or do i not get a full sound effect library with FCE?
    I'd be grateful if anyone could help.
    Cheers,
    Dave..

    Soundtrack Pro, that comes with FCP, is a different application, with more capabilities, than Soundtrack. Did you connect all your sounds up? If yes, if you selected the folder that contains them, then that's all you get. You can add more loops from sound libraries online. There are pre-built categories that the Acid loops format uses that will get assigned to the different sections as you add them.

  • Is it permissible to upload a video on youtube with music, sounds effects, and video effects from imovie?

    Lately, I've been editing and making videos for a local church in Mexico. I am not selling any of the videos. The are free to watch. However, is it permissible to upload a video with music, sound effects, and video effects from imovie? I using imovie version 10.0.2

    This question comes up from time to time.
    There are a number of con-men who think that they can earn a quick buck from claiming that they own the copyright to Apple’s royalty-free jingles and sound effects included with the iLife applications. These are all free to use, as clearly stated in section 2.C of the iLife Software License Agreement:
    “You may use the Apple and third party audio content (“Audio Content”) contained in or otherwise included with the Apple software, on a royalty-free basis, to create your own original soundtracks for your video and audio projects. You may broadcast and/or distribute your own soundtracks that were created using the Audio Content, however, individual samples, sound sets, or audio content may not be commercially or otherwise distributed on a standalone basis, nor may they be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, sound files, sound effects or music beds.”

    I'm trying to open sound effects from the recource page and there's no waveform

    What version of Audition are you talking about?  Going from memory, there was a change to how things worked (starting at CS6 maybe?) from their being a "resource centre" to a "Download sound effects and more" link on the help menu.  Exactly where that leaves owners of earlier versions would, I think, be a question for Adobe, not a user forum (though there are some pretty clever people who visit here.

  • How to transfer mp3 files to 4s from a PC without itunes?

    How to transfer mp3 files to 4s from a PC without itunes?

    No can do. Closest you can do is to use iCloud and iTunes Match. Otherwise, for mp3 files you will have to import them to iTunes on the computer and then sync them to the phone.

  • How cat I speed up video "Share" from iMovie library in to .mov file?

    How cat I speed up video "Share" from iMovie library in to .mov file?
    I am converting ONLY 18 sec. long video, and it says 88 min. till its completeion. ???
    I have over 1TB of free space and my mac specs are:
    Processor  2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory  4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    Graphics  NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT 128 MB

    Using iMovie Version 10.0.2 (Mavericks) and importing HD 1920x1080 since I am not interested in any smaller quality.
    in other words, I would like to be able to import videos from my camera (highest available quality) which could be played on QuickTime.
    Is there any way I can avoidaving my videos saving in " iMovie Library.imovielibrary" ???
    I am interested in having my videos as (1920x1080 .mov) file and no other.

  • When importing files into fcpx from go pro hero2, some are importing as .mov and some as .mp4. when making a multi cam clip it will only add one type, if you try and add the other it says camera clip cannot be processed.

    when importing files into fcpx from go pro hero2, some are importing as .mov and some as .mp4. when making a multi cam clip it will only add one type, if you try and add the other it says camera clip cannot be processed. need to figure out why it randomly imports differently, or how to add different file tyoes to multi cam.

    here is one that is imported and stays .mp4. the specs are same as original file before import.
    here is one that has changed somehow during import. specs on original file are same as above, but once it is imported it changes to this in event folder, and others randomly keep the above specs.

  • How do I find what is taking up all the space in my iMovie library?

    If I find the my iMovie library in Finder, it's total size is a reported 15.59GB and, as far as I can tell, I cannot open it in Finder to see what files are taking up that space.
    If I look at my iMovie library in iMovie, it apparently contains one event, which contains one movie.
    If I select the move as then go to File -> Reveal in Finder, I can see all the folders and files associated with the event and they come to a grand total of 5.95 GB.
    So, how do I find out what movies, clips or projects are taking up the other ~ 10GB in the iMovie library folder?
    I'm using iMovie 10.0.5

    When I did that, I could still only see the same contents as shown in the third screenshot above. However, minutes after doing the "Show package contents", iMovie seems to have figured out that it didn't have 15GB of data in its library after all and updated its size accordingly. So, problem solved for now but I still find iMovie to be painful to use and I will probably avoid doing so as much as I can.

  • Is it possible to transfer Full-HD videos (from a Full-HD camcorder) from iMovie 11 to compressor 4 and create there a AVCHD DVD which can be played in HD quality at a PS/3?

    Is it possible to transfer Full-HD videos (from a Full-HD camcorder) from iMovie 11 to compressor 4 and create there a AVCHD DVD which can be played in HD quality at a PS/3?

    Yes.
    In iMovie use SHARE/Export Movie.
    http://help.apple.com/imovie/#mov3a9e5615
    Choose 1920x1080 (or size of your choice.
    Give it a name and location.
    You can drag this file into Compressor.
    In Compressor, use "Create BluRay Disk"
    That should work fine.
    There is another alternative, where you could skip the DVD and Compressor.
    Just SHARE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME
    Choose Movie to MP4
    In Options, choose h.264 as the Codec.
    Choose a bit rate of 16000 or less.
    Create the movie.
    You can then put it on a USB thumb drive and play it on the PS3.

  • Can i export an Imovie project with special effects as a quick time movie then import into final cut express keeping the special effects?

    Hi, Can i export an Imovie project with special effects as a quick time movie then import into final cut express keeping the special effects?

    Absolutely.  Go to File->Export->QuickTime Movie (do NOT use QuickTime Conversion).  Make sure you check the Self-Contained box.  The export will be an exact copy of your Sequence, complete with any filters or other effects you've added.  Import the self-contained movie back into the project (or another project) if needed.

  • What happened to all the cool sound effects from Soundtrack Pro?

    I've recently had to upgrade my imac and macbook pro and my Final Cut Studio 7 isn't compatible with the newer verison Macs. How can I get access to the sound effects that came with the older garage bands and soundtrack pro applications? I've purchased Final Cut X and Logic Pro, but still seams as if the older verisons have better sound effects.

    Have you a backup of your older system?
    Then try to restore these folders from your backup to a folder on your Desktop and add all missing loops to your loop library in the corresponding folders:  You'll find them in the "Library" folder directly at the top level of all files on your Macintosh HD:
    /Library/Audio/Apple Loops for Soundtrack Pro/
    /Library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/iLife Sound Effects/
    /Library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/Final Cut Pro Sound Effects/
    After you restored the folders with the loops use the command "Reindex all Loops" in the "Loops" drop down menu in the Loop Library.

  • HT1349 I have a large Windows iTunes library (18k+ songs, 650+ movies, 2.4K TV shows) and since upgrading to iTunes 11 files are disappearing from my library. Some music files re-appear in the cloud which means I have to re-download and re-convert to MP3.

    iTunes 11 is rapidly becoming a disaster for me. I have a dedicated Windows 7 machine running iTunes to service 3 Apple TV's, 2iPhones, 2iPods, and an iPad. Itunes 11 is very sluggish with my large library and has now started 'losing' files to the cloud.  This means that music I purchased in 2005 is being removed from my library and subsequently seems to become available as a ne cloud download.  This may well be because I convert all ACC files to MP3 and delete the ACC (my ears are too old to care about the reduction in quality). Either way, it's detrsoying my playlists and means I have to re-download files.
    Does anyone know how to stop this?  I have no interest in the cloud (my library is too big and contains hundreds of ripped CD's and Vinyl records that can't be matched).
    Thanks

    Because back in the early days very few devices supported AAC so converting to MP3 allowed me to use iTunes and other devices (like a $1000 dollar MP3 player with a 3.5" hard disk drive that pre-dated iPods ) as well as my gen 1 and 2 iPods.  I can't hear the difference (I'm old...) so the files being smaller is still an advantage (even though I have 64Gb iPods and iPhones these days.  Anyway, the major issue is iTunes deleting the MP3's and messing up my playlists because the file it downloads just goes in the library - not the original playlists. The secondary issue is how do I know it's truly replacing all the files it deletes. It's just scary and I don't like it. 
    BTW, I'm not anti-cloud and in fact use iCloud extensively with my iPhones/Apple TV's for photo sharing/backups but iCloud is useless for media sharing. I have just over 2tb of media data shared on my iTunes server (and remotely accessible on my iPhone/iPad using WebDav to my home server).
    ...and none of my media is pirated. I have crates of vinyl, CD's,DVD's, and Blu-Rays along with thousands of iTunes store receipts!

  • I would like to create a list of MP3 files to download from a MUSE web site.

    I have the honour of creating web site for our church.
    We would like to publish the ministers sermons on the web (audio files to download).
    How do I do this in Muse, or is it not possible and should use another web site creating software to do this?
    Is there an add-on which I could purchase which would help?
    Any help would be appreciated
    Ossydoc

    Hi Ossydoc,
    You can use Muse to create such a website. All you need to do is, create links in Muse for the sermons and select  " link to File " in the hyperlink option and link to those Mp3 files.
    Please refer to this screenshot :- http://prntscr.com/4xvdup
    Now, when you publish your site,  Muse would automatically upload those files onto the server and the users would then be able to listen as well as download those sermons using the links on your site.
    Hope this helps
