Which audio resolution is good for FCPX?

Hello to all! I am doing audio work in Garage band and export it finally to be used in my projects. At present the audio resolution for export is 'better' in which setting the export is 16-bit quality. Will opting to select 'best' which gives 24-bit quality give me enhanced results? BTW, the exported audio has to pass through Mr. iTunes before it reaches FCPX, and I need to further tinker with the format while importing the song from GB into iTunes. Any guidance in this matter will be deeply appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

We have a quaint expression concerning the polishing of a turd and 24bit audio appears to fall into this category with regards to normal humans.
The general opinion appears to be that it is a waste of time unless you are a very skilled audio engineer undertaking unusual tasks.

  • Which mac pc is good for iPad development in between mac mini or mac book pro

    which mac pc is good for iPad development in between mac mini or mac book pro so give me details which is much more better for ios development

    The best thing for iOS development is your imagination. Coming up with unique creative apps is what’s most important. I've had a mini since they first came out, and I think it's the best desktop around. However you may not want a desktop because you're more mobile when you work on apps. With the mini you can use a much bigger screen (I use a 80 inch) but the laptop has a slightly better processor (if you decide to pay extra for it). I'm learning app development also and a laptop would drive me crazy, but it's a personal choice, so you first need to decide where you are going to be while you're developing. If it’s at home or a office then the mini might be better. The mini and the macbook pro are both two incredible products. I don’t think you can make a wrong decision as far as which one handles app design better. They’re both great in that department.

  • Which notebook model is good for gaming?

    Hello!
    Prompt me please what better to take notebook for games from your firm?
    In advance thanks!

    Hi Dmitriy
    Well, it's not easy to say which notebook is good for gaming.
    A friend of mine has bought a Qosmio notebook and was satisfied with the performance. Also the newer Satellite notebooks are pretty performance strong.
    In my opinion if you want to play only the games and the portable factor is not very important for your so I would recommend to use the desktop PC.
    The desktop PC is easier for device and part upgrading. You can change the CPU and the graphic card. The notebook upgrading is not very easy and some parts like graphic card or CPU cannot be changed.
    Also the graphic card drivers are very important for the gaming. Notebooks manufacturers use not original graphic card manufacturer's drivers. They design own graphic drivers because of the graphic card overheating protection. Sometimes such drivers are a little bit older then newer original graphic card drivers and not compatible with the newer games.
    It's your choice.

  • Which Macbook Pro is good for a college student?

    Hi!
    I want to buy the new Macbook Pro with Retina Display. My current laptop has 455 gb in which I only used 83 gb of it since the past 5 years I've been using it. I know that the original macbook pro is good too but its way heavier than the Macbook pro with retina display and therefore its easier for me to carry the macbook pro with retina display to school. Also it has 9 hour battery which is very good.
    I will be storing music (2000+ songs), pictures, school documents (word, powerpoint, etc). I rarely do video editing or photo editing. I often have 3+ programs open while using the laptop and have 3+ tabs open on internet.
    There are 2 Macbook Pro's that I am having troubles choosing from:
    1.13-inch: 2.4GHz with Retina display... It has 2.4GHz dual-core Intel Core i5, Turbo Boost up to 2.9GHz, 4GB 1600MHz memory, and 128GB PCIe-based flash storage.
    2.13-inch: 2.4 GHz with Retina display... It has 2.4 GHz dual-core Intel Core i5, Turbo Boost up to 2.9 GHz, 8GB 1600MHz memory, and 256GB PCIe-based flash storage.
    I am planning on using this mac for a long-term use... but also know that I can buy an external storage when I run out of space.
    Which Macbook is suited for my needs?
    Thank you!

    You say you are a college student but then leave out the most critical piece of information regarding choice of computer, what are you studying and what are the computer requirements for your course of study?
    Select the computer that is most comparable with your professors and other students in your field of study. Music, etc. is not relevant, unless your field of study is music.
    Get the most ram and disk space you can afford.

  • ATI HD 3870 now no good for FCPX.1

    Wow,
    Was pretty excited yesterday when I saw the new update come out. Was already to install on my MP and did a little research before I did, thank
    God. I guess my existing card, which worked perfectly for me on FCPX.0 is no longer acceptable. My question is, what is NOW the best card to use with
    FCPX.1. MacPro, 2.8 Quad Core, 14 gig ram.

    That's the list of compatible cards.

  • Which cooler pad is good for MBP 13 inch 2011?

    some people said that altaz cooling pad is good. but i see that thermapak is also better. i don't know what must I choose for my MBP 13 inch.. any suggestion whcih one is better?

    I personnally use the CoolMaster NotePal X2. I bought this one because of the great location of the fan and how it fitted my Mac. I use it for my MacBook Pro 15 inch and fits perfectely.
    The MacBook Pro 13 inch will also fit but you'll see the borders of the fan.
    Anyways, here's the link on Amazon.com (I think they can deliver in Malaysia):

  • Which MacBook Pro under $2000 for FCPX & Motion 5?

    I am selling my late 2011 13'' MBP MD313LL/A tomorrow. Looking to get the most powerful MBP that will handle FCP X & Motion 5 the best for under two thousand dollars. I have found a new mid 2011 MBP 15'' with i7, 750 GB 7,200rpm, anti-glare screen for $1599. But it only has a 2nd gen intel core with 3000 graphics card. Model is MD385LL/A. Thanks

    Ugh!!! Of course I mess up trying to be funny
    Thanks for the clarification Luis;) I recall asking an Apple rep last year about upgrading to 16 GB, she would not confirm or deny if it was ok to do.
    So I'm happy with this machine!&1half    I needed to take in my car for regular maintenance so I brought my new Mac into VW and unboxed it, plugged in my TB drive and restored from TM. Final Cut Pro X works like a dream! Its night and day to what my late 2011 13" MBP could do, absolutely blows it out of the water! I'm not exaggerating, its really sweet.  However,
        I am working on a move that would allow me to go back and get the 15" retina for 1999.99 total. If I can *afford* to get this, do you think it's a good move & I should go for it? (smaller hard drive isn't an issue since I use external)
    Thank you for your help Luis, greatly appreciated...
    Much thanks to Adam Dachis for his solid input

  • Which Practice exams are good for 1z0-047 & 1z0-007?

    What is the price for oca voucher?

    Self-Test CDs are good. For both exams you can get hundreds of practice questions with explanations.
    Also the SYBEX and Oracle Press books have quite good revision questions and additional exams.
    All in all I think I paid around $200 for the Self Test and around $80 for both books.
    Compare that to the $13000 I am still paying off for a Certificate in vb.NET from Maryland University.

  • WHICH PROGRAM(S) IS GOOD FOR RESIZING VIDEOS?

    I need a free, good quality, full version (no demo's please) program that can resize any video to 320x270 (or whatever it is) so it can be played on iPod.

    Don't worry, figured it out, just use any-video-converter for ipod to convert movies onto the correct size and format to play well on a 5Gen. iPod video!

  • Which mac is really good for hdv working process and render??

    I'll work my hdv native workflow soon and I'm really very interesting on how to get the most of Mac product,s but I'm still asking me what is the minimun of features do I need on a MAc to process without any disturb or overload and render my video in Blu ray for distribution and broadcasting purposes.

    The MacBook Pro provides one key advantage not possible with the 12-inch PB -- the ability to create a second firewire bus using the ExpressCard/34 slot.
    In this manner, you can separate fw drives from camera/deck -- a big issue with FCP5 and certain cameras and hard drives.
    It is a key difference for anyone considering video editing.
    You'll get a beefier video card, and the ability to preview.

  • From Which place I should try for Job?

    Dear Friends from India

Please help me to take decision which place will be good for getting frequently call and walk-In in sap sd.
    Arun

    Hi
          If you have just completed your SAP certification and are looking out for a job without any prior experience on SAP, then it could be tough, but it is not impossible.
    As Rajesh has rightly responded, the first place would be to contact jobsites and placement agencies.. please register yourself on the jobsites, you will definitely receive calls.
    And also do try to network amongst friends already in the domain for internal references within companies.
    All the best!
    Cheers
