Waves 5.9.7- Finally Working in FCP!

The folks at Waves must have finally got their act together. The age old problem of Waves Audio Units not working in FCP seems to be over. After installing the update, I crossed my fingers and launched FCP 6.0.1 and voila, no crash!
It's not that I ever used these plugs in FCP, but I'd always have to remove them from my components folder after using them in Logic. They would never let FCP start up otherwise. So, I'm just happy I don't have to go through that step all the time anymore!

Does FCP still take 30-45 minutes to load the Waves bundle? In my experience, it would launch eventually on some version combinations...
Even if you can use them in FCP, you would still see the numerical effects tab interface, instead of the nice skins you see in Logic. But at least you don't have to remember to drag them out of the plugins folder each time you want to launch FCP...
I'm interested about this because I teach FCP at a school where Logic, Pro Tools, and the Waves bundles are on the same student workstations - We'd have to move those Waves files around at the start and end of every class.

Using Waves audio plugins in Final Cut Pro

Does anyon know how to use presets for Waves plugins in Final Cut Pro. The plugins show up, but don't have the graphical interface or the ability to apply presets (to my knowledge) maybe there is a workaround?
otherwise can anyone reccomend a good workflow possibly with soundtrack?
Thanks.
BZ.

Real? You mean as in Real Player? Those don't work in FCP...they aren't an editable format.
Mac the Ripper? This converts DVDs to Real movies?
Google MPEG STREAMCLIP. It decodes MPEG-2 files into DV and a more workable format.
And also look into DVDxDV. It can convert NON-COPYPROTECTED footage to an editable one.

Does Magic Bullet Looks works with FCP X?

Hi guys, does magic bullet looks or mojo work with FCP X?

Working with fcp 6.0.6 I can't see the clip in the viewer until I start or play. Used to show fine.

Working with fcp 6.0.6 I can't see the clip in the viewer until I start or play. Used to show fine.

This is the FCPX forum.
Sounds like the viewer is in wireframe mode or is alpha display mode. If this isn't the case you need to go to the Final Cut Studio forum and give more details.

Is native AVCHD editing finally working in FCP6?

I read somewhere that FCP 6.06 will finally work natively with AVDHD. I've been itching to get a Panasonic AVCHD HMC150 but don't want the hassle of transcoding to giant ProRes files, but rather work with native files.
Anybody had success with this combo?

What is the problem with using ProRes (apart from size of files)? It is an awesome codec. On my humble Mac Pro I can play back 3 streams with a couple of filters applied to clips and transitions in rt.
I have tried native avchd editing in Vegas - got about 3 streams to work, but frame rate only stays full frame at preview (half). Edius playback of avchd is nil for me - although converting to canopus HQ gives similar results to FCP. FCP's log and transfer is also a very elegant way of transferring and transcoding clips on the fly. Also, read the adobe forums for posts on avchd - very variable responses with many reporting lots of crashes!
For me, the bigger issue with FCS2 is the lack of a HD distribution format, ie bluray!

Focusrite Saffire interface not working with FCP 4?

I can't seem to get my focusrite saffire audio interface to work properly with FCP? It works fine with all other apps (itunes, QT, Logic etc) and all the other Studio apps (Motion, DVD Pro and Soundtrack Pro) - but in Final Cut the sound is 'distorted' and 'jumpy'? All focusrite and FCP software is upto date.
Has anybody else had this sort of problem? Is anybody happily using the saffire with fcp? (I can't seem to find any on the search!)
it seems strange that it wont work with fcp but work with the other apps of the package? I can't see any sort of settings in fcp to solve this issue? Any help?!

I am actually only using it to play back audio 'syncd' with picture straight off camera or importing clips from quicktime/DVD's etc. in FCP - it is this that I can't hear correctly? (all the clips are fine by the way played in other aps etc)
Yes, editing is done in Soundtrack Pro or Logic Pro (used to have pro-tools mbox - but decided to ditch it and go down the Logic route with another interface!) - but I expect to be able to hear basic audio with picture in FCP?
Sample rates are matched?...

Configure Macbook Pro with one hard drive to work with FCP

I would like to do some video editing while on the road. I have a new Macbook Pro with Final Cut installed. I know that the capture scratch should not be on the same hard drive as the application. How do I set up the computer to work with FCP when I have only one hard drive. I do have external hard drives to use when editing at home but I would like to edit while traveling in the car or on a plane.

If you don't have an external drive attached, FCP will default to the system drive. The CAPTURE SCRATCH folder will be located in the DOCUMENTS>FCP DOCUMENTS folder. You CAN edit on the system drive, but performance might suffer and you might get dropped frames. DV, OFFLINE RT are fine, HDV and other formats might give you headaches. I have edited DV and OFFLINE RT HD on my laptop's hard drive on a plane without much problem.
Get a bus powered hard drive like the G-Raid Mini. This way you only need one power source.

A list of plugins that work with FCP

I have been looking around to buy some new effects and transitions for FCP, but most are not compatible, which is mind boggling because I see Programs like SOny Vegas being supported and not final cut pro.
http://www.prodad.de/gb/adoragenewdetails.html
I see there are not many plugins that work with FCP, does anyone have a list of plugins that work with final cut pro?

Interesting - they list my free plugins, but not my commercial plugins...

First of all, why did you say yes to Nero Back up before researching what it does with files already on the HDD? When I install Nero, the Back Up is the first thing I disable, it is a nagging pain, there are much better backup programs available. There are several file recovery programs out there to recover deleted files, that is, if that is what happened. Also, if you haven't overwritten the files, so you should be able to find them.

Strange. I can play all my clips in FCP 7, but can not export them via share, nor submit them via Compressor. What happened? Thank yiou for your kind help, I can not continue my work! FCP 7!

When FCP/FCS begins to act unexpectedly, the usual first step is to trash your preferences:

Fade Out to White in Final Cut Pro (FCP)

Could someone please show me how to do add a fade-to-white transition in Final Cut Pro (FCP)? (Instead of black, which is default.) I want to be able to do both: 1) fade to white; 2) and white to the picture. An example clip:
http://www.allfilters.com/campingfilters/gravityfed/platypus-gravityworks-filter
*Click on the "Videos" tab.
This clip ends with "fade to white." I want to apply the same effect in the beginning (white to movie).
Thank you in advance.

Effects > Video Transitions > Dissolve> Dip to Color Dissolve ... add it at the start and end
Double click the transition at the start (the Fade In) to open it in the Viewer and change the Color property to White. For extra credit you can change the Start value to 50%. Then double click the transition at the end (the Fade Out) to open it in the Viewer and again change the Color property to White. For extra credit change the End value to 50%.
Or another way would be to use Effects > Video Generators > Matte > Color Solid to create a "White" clip and then use that to dissolve into and out of your edit using a regular Cross Dissolve transition or by placing the Color Solid on another layer and the keyframing the opacity.
Hope it helps

Apple Pro Res 4444, does it work with FCP 6?

Does ProRes 4444 work with FCP 6? I don't think so but wanted to check before I had the film lab telecine my film. I'm stuck with FCP 6. Might have to go with ProRes 422 (HQ) ?

Jon Chappell wrote:
Are you 100% sure that you can write to ProRes 4444 files in QT 7.6.2? I would have thought you'd need FCS3 for that.
See, I knew the editing gods would humble me.
I just re-tested this on a separate FCS 2 partition and it turns out my memory was failing. While you can read and import the new ProRes codecs, you can cannot render out to them in the FCP 6 + QT 7.6.2 universe. So yeah, getting all ProRes4444 files would be a hassle on an FCP 6 setup.
Ugh, sorry for the bad steer.

Open and work on FCP project file located at xsan volume

It is recommended by apple to *open and work on FCP project file located at xsan volume*
or we should open , work and save our FCP project file from local drive only .
Is there is risk of corrupting xsan volume if we open FCP project file placed in xsan volume .
where should be the location of FCP project files ??????
Mac pro 2.66 , FCP 6.01, xsan 1.4

Opening a file twice is a indeed a problem. To prevent this, and for numerous other reasons, we use Open Directory. In OD you can configure that a user can login just once (concurrently).
In old versions of xsan it was not recommended to put project files on xsan, but nowadays it works fine.
Putting projectfiles on a san has the advantage that a user can work on any client. If this is not important in your environment these files can be stored locally.

In FCP x backup process is constantly running in background even though its done which results into slow working of FCP x. any idea to resolve the issue. I am using 10.1.3 and facing the problem ever since i have updated my FCP x to 10.1.3

Go into preferences and under playback turn off background render. That helped speed things for me when working with large files.

Yahoo Business Mail finally working again after 11 months

Thanks to Safari 4.0.4 Yahoo Business Mail is finally working after breaking over 11 months ago because of an Apple update. I'm glad I don't have to switch to a different browser just to check my email anymore but having to wait a year for a bugfix that Apple themselves caused and refused to fix was really annoying.

There's no question in there, so why is this marked as a question? Further, not only in this message, but in many of your posts, you seem to be awfully fond of all caps. You need to be aware that this is a great way to ensure that people don't read your posts. Also, think a little more carefully about what you're going to write before posting... flow-of-consciousness is not the easiest to read, and thus is also a great way to get people to ignore your posts. Try to organize your writing better.
I'm not trying to be insulting, but you do need to know that a post like this one gives a negative impression to the reader, and if you actually were asking a question, it reduces the chances of getting that question answered.
