How to replace audio on a music video with final cut pro x

How do I replace low quality audio on a music video to a higher better quality audio with final cut pro x?
I have the new audio on cd which I can rip and replace the original audio.
Some audio and music videos are not of same length, In cases like this how do I sync video to the newly replaced audio?
Is there any tutorial, link or where to look for this in the manual?
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Providing you don't need the video synced or cut to a beat, all you need to do is place your music in the primary storyline
Connect your video above.
While your video is connected, hit CMD+R on your keyboard and stretch the video to the length of the music
If you were to cut the video to a beat, simply add markers on your music track, then connect and trim clips to your markers.

  • Making a Live Music Video with Final Cut Express

    I'm trying to make a music video for my band. We have filmed 1 of our performances using 3 video cameras. Is there a way I can sync on Final Cut Express 4 all the 3 videos with the music I have also recorded, so that I can see and choose out of the 3 what's the best at any given time?
    Any help appreciated!
    Many thanks,
    Max

    This is actually a feature of FCPro. FCE was not designed to do this, however there is a workaround.
    First, place each video on its own video track. Then adjust the positioning of each video track relative to the audio so all the video tracks are in sync with it and, by extension, with each other.
    Then you have to resize & move each video in the Canvas so you can see all 3 of them at the same time in the Canvas window. You can do this by opening each video in the Canvas, turn on Image+WireFrame and then resize & move each video as desired. This is much easier if you just use Piero's free QuarterPIP plugin instead of doing it manually.
    Now you should be able to play the timeline and see all 3 videos in the Canvas, sync'd to the audio. From there you can pick & choose where to cut from one video to another. Just keep in mind that video on higher tracks will obscure video on lower tracks, so you will have to actually cut out portions of your video on tracks v2, v3 etc that you don't want to use. When you are finished, undo the QuarterPIP filter (or the manual resizings you originally did) and you should have your finished video.

  • Has anyone created a time-lapse video with Final Cut Pro X?

    I've taken a series of 2,631 I'd like to create a time-lapse video from. The process has been excruciating so far. I'm getting tons of spinning beachballs. I'm running Lion, 10.7.1.
    Before I do any more hair pulling, has someone else out there successfully used FCP X for creating time-lapse videos? Any tips you can offer?

    I love using FCPX for time lapse movies, here is an example:
    http://vimeo.com/27460065
    My workflow is as follows:
    1. I import the photos to QT player 7 as an image sequence
    2. I save the resulting movie in QT7 in Prores HQ, keeping the original movie size (eg. 3500x1940)
    3. I import the movie to a 1920x1080 project in FCPX.
    4.  I can now easily create pans and zoom ins without losing quality.
    I hope this helps.

  • Burning a video from Final Cut Pro using iDVD

    When I export and save my video from Final Cut Pro to a folder (export->Using Quick Time Conversion). When I do that there are several different videos that are saved in my folder (ie-Kelly Michelle; Kelly Michelle-av1; Kelly Michelle-av2; Kelly Michelle-av3; Kelly Michelle-av4; Kelly Michelle-av5).
    iDVD is the program I need to use, I do not have any other programs. Therefore, I import the file to iDVD and once everything is ready in iDVD I try to burn the dvd. However, in the last stages of burning a window pops up and says that "an error was found during the burning process". It does not tell me what kind of an error it is. Does anyone have any advice or a step by step process that I need to do in order to burn my dvd successfully.

    The simplest way to prepare a video for iDVD is to *Export/Quicktime Movie* (NOT Using Quicktime Conversion), select Current Settings, Audio and Video and, depending on your needs, other 2 options:
    o- +Make Movie Self-Contained+ is preferred to have an independent movie (you can move the exported file, you can continue editing your FCP project before burning the exported version, etc.) but requires more disk space and more time for exporting.
    o- +Chapter Markers+ (NOT All Chapters) must be selected if you created Chapter Markers in FCP (markers in the timeline, not the clip, and clicked the Add Chapter Marker button in the marker dialog).
    The resulting .mov file (whether self-contained or reference) may be easily imported to iDVD.

  • How do I swap one clip for another in Final Cut Pro 7?

    How do I sway one clip for another in Final Cut Pro 7? I am doing what it says in a book but it is not working. Thanks.

    You drag the clip from the browser to the clip on the timeline. Wait till the timeline clip goes white. Drop it and pick from the menu that appears the replace option you want.

  • Help!!!  Upgrading to iTunes 10.5 has destroyed all video in Final Cut Pro

    After upgrading to iTunes 10.5 all of the video on my external hard drive was shot with a Canon XL-H1 and captured on a Focus Enhancements FS-CF.  The files are HDV quicktime movies with the MPEG 2, Linear Timecode codec.
    Movie files that are already imported into Final Cut Pro 7 appear as white screens and will not play.  Final Cut crashes when I try to re-import them.
    When I try to open them with Quicktime 7 I get a message saying "An invalid public movie atom was found in the movie."  Quicktime X won't open them either.  However, VLC plays them just fine.
    I've looked in the codecs folder for Quicktime and the HDV codec is present for playback.
    I'm experiencing the same issue on two systems: a brand new 27" iMac and a 17" MacBook Pro.  Both are running Snow Leopard.
    I was on the phone with Apple for over 4 hours.  Ultimately they blamed my camera and hung up.
    Dear God, someone please help!

    I emailed Focus Enhancements, the manufacturers of the FS-CF flash drive I use to recorde footage from my camera.  They're aware of the problem.  Here's the email I received:
    Currently, there is an issue with Final Cut Pro X, Mac OSX Lion 10.7, the latest version of the Quicktime player (7.7 or any 10.0version and up) and our Quicktime HDV files. We have been working with Apple ona fix for this issue, however, I do not know when the fix will be available.The only workaround we know of at this time is to record in the .m2t fileformat and convert the footage to .mov (Quicktime).
    If you are not running Lion and you have Final Cut Pro 6or 7, you may be able to downgrade your Quicktime player so your files willwork. Some of our customers have had success with downgrading their Quicktimeplayer by following the steps listed here: http://www.digitalrebellion.com/blog/posts/using_pacifist_to_downgrade_quicktime .html
    If you cannot downgrade using Pacifist, you may need tocontact Apple for further assistance.
    I tried the Pacifist route.  It didn't work.  And in my opinion, recording in .m2t and converting to .mov is a time consuming option, especially if you're on deadline.  I'm going to dual boot my machines with Leopard and not upgrade iTunes.
    iSkysoft's video converter is the only converter I've found so far that will convert my hdv files.  But it pillarboxes the converted video and throws the audio 14 frames out of sync; issues that can be fixed in editing but then everything has to be re-rendered.
    As far as Focus Enhancements working with Apple on a fix: don't hold your breath.

  • Trying to download video into  Final cut pro from my canon XHA1 HD camera

    I have a brand new I-mac 24 inch 4gs of memory and a terabite of hard drive, with Final Cut Pro 6.0.1 Studio 2. I have a brand new Canon XHA1 HD camera. when I plug in my 4pin firewire the computer it won't except the camera or the firewire, but I-movie will? the warning sign says it can't find the firewire? does any body know what settings I need to set, so my computer will except and download my video footage in final cut pro?

    I've got the Canon XH-A1, but I'm still using FCP 5.1.4, for the moment. I've had no problem capturing from the camera. Are you using Log and Capture? The simplest way to try capturing, once you're in Log and Capture is to hit play in the controller section (or space bar), and then use the capture now button, once the video has started playing. There is an entire chapter in the book on how to use the log and capture facility, so I'm not going to get too detailed here. If you can't get it to work, please be specific about how far you get. Can you play the video on the camera?, Does it show the transport controls?, etc.

  • How do I import directly from Canon XA10 with Final Cut X?

    How do I import directly from Canon XA10 with Final Cut X?

    I have an XA10, and importing is quite simple.  But you do have to make sure your camera is set to the proper settings to allow you to import the files into FCPX.
    First, make sure the camera is powered on.  Connect it through the USB connection.  Then open the camera's viewfinder and press the button on the side of the camera that allows you to see the videos you've shot in the viewfinder.  (This toggle button toggles between seeing what the camera is pointed at live and seeing the thumbnails of the video you've already shot that are stored on the internal memory card.)  Now, the camera will present you with a menu asking which memory card you want to look at (there's an internal flash memory card, plus you can insert SD cards as well).  Choose the memory card on which your videos are stored within the camera, and then you'll be good to go.
    Now you can go into your FCPX event and do the Import from Camera.  Now the Import from Camera interface will open up and you'll be able to select the XA10, where it will present you with all the videos that are on the camera's memory card that you selected.
    From here,  you can select individual videos and import them, or you can set in and out points on videos and just import the parts you want.

  • What compression to use when Exporting HD video from final cut pro PAL setting

    Hi there
    I'm trying to export my HD video from Final cut Pro so that I can edit it in DVD studio Pro. I initially exported it on H.264 setting however it then gives me the message 'NTSC assets cannot be imported into PAL projects' It was edited with PAL setting so I think it must be the conversion but i'm not sure which option to use.....been really struggling to get the 1 hour footage under 4.5gb without losing too much quality...
    Any advice greatly appreciated!
    thanks

    Just to add two suggestions.
    1) Consider putting your four movies on two disks.
    2) Bring your movies into Compressor and duplicate the stock DVD setting. In the Encoding pane of the Inspector, select a CBR and dial it back to around 6.2 to 6.5 Mbs. In Preview mark a small section and submit; you'll get 2 elementary streams, with m2v and AC3 extensions. Bring that into DVDSP and evaluate results. Adjust as necessary. (This is to avoid waiting out very long encodes and then having to start again from scratch if you get disappointing results.)
