  • 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.

  • 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.

  • How different when i5 and i7 work with Final Cut Studio?

    27-inch models only, one of the following:
    2.66GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 processor with 8MB shared L3 cache; Turbo Boost dynamic performance up to 3.2GHz
    2.8GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor with 8MB shared L3 cache; Turbo Boost dynamic performance up to 3.46GHz; Hyper-Threading for up to eight virtual cores
    May I get the "up to 2.3x faster performance with Final Cut Studio" with i5?
    Thanks advanced.

    It looks very convincing to pay more for i7. Thanks a lot.
    I agree, and also get 8G or more of RAM like Switch900 suggests. You can save money on that by buying it from a third-party vendor.

  • G5 Power PC vs Imac...which is better for editing with final cut studio 2?

    This is my present computer:
    iMac 3.06GHz Core 2 Duo (2008 model)
    4 gigs of 800 mhz ddr2 sdram (this is the max ram for this computer! )
    NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS 512 MB
    Hard drive: 465 gig (I use mainly external drives for editing)
    I use this mainly for video editing with final cut studio 2.
    Rendering in compressor takes forever!!!
    A friend suggested I pick up a used G5 Power PC.
    I found this one, here are the specs:
    APPLE POWER MAC G5 PowerPC DUAL CORE (2 x 2 GHZ)
    System Mac OSX 10.5.8
    RAM 12 GB
    1 Hard drive of 160 Gb
    Superdrive 16x CD/DVD/DL DVD (32x)
    Video card NVIDIA GeForce 6600 (VRAM 256 Mb)
    3 open PCI-Express expansion slots.
    1x FireWire 800
    3x FireWire 400
    4x USB 1 and 2
    2x Ethernet Port
    2x Displays ports
    Is this insanity or a smart move to move over to the older G5.
    According to my friend, the older G5s are much better at processing video.
    Is a dual 2 GHZ processor enough or would I need a 2.3 or 2.5?
    OR is there another option that someone might be able to suggest?
    I would be so appreciative of any opinions regarding this issue.
    Thanks in advance.
    Bill

    Save your pennies and look for a refurbished or used MacPro. Early 2008 or newer 8 core machines w/8GB of RAM running 4 instances in QMaster will chew through material.
    Beyond running compressor, it is just a better all round machine for editing video.
    • it has multiple internal drive bays which run via SATA connections - much faster than the FW800 limits of the iMac for external drives
    • it has 3 slots which give you the option of an i/o card from AJA, Blackmagic or Matrox so that you can actually monitor your video properly as well as ingest high end formats
    • the slots give you the ability to connect esata raids for even higher data speeds
    • you have much greater flexibility with computer monitors
    • you have much greater RAM capacity
    and so on ...

  • Help please importing mpeg files to be edited with Final Cut Studio

    Hey everyone, new to the video editing thing. I have a JVC GY-HM100U Pro HD camcorder and a MacBook Pro 5,1 with 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor, 4 GB 1067 MHz DPR3, NVIDIA GeForce 9400M & NVIDIA GeForce 9600MGT running OSX 10.5.8. Have recorded footage in mpeg4 and want to now edit using Final Cut Pro 7. Have downloaded Quicktime Pro and am still getting a "the movie could not be opened when trying to import the mp4 file. The movie contains some invalid data" window when trying to open the mpeg4 file. I have also downloaded DivX, FF Player, & Handbrake if these help convert to another supported file format. Please help!

    That camera is promoted on the JVC website as being Final Cut Pro compatible.
    Have you tried to import the clips via Log & Transfer?
    You might also want to read up on the [workflow for that type of camera|http://documentation.apple.com/en/finalcutpro/professionalformatsandwork flows/#chapter=6%26section=0].
    Have downloaded Quicktime Pro....
    QuickTime Pro is installed automaticallly with Final Cut Studio. No need to buy it again.
    I have also downloaded DivX, FF Player, & Handbrake...
    That software is all pretty much useless for working with Final Cut Studio.
    MPEG Streamclip is free and much better.

  • Is Quicktime Pro included with Final Cut Studio?

    Wikipedia's article on Quicktime Pro says that a Quicktime Pro license comes with Final Cut Studio. Is that true?
    I have OS X 10.5.8 and FCS 2, but I can't even tell if I have Quicktime Pro. I see Quicktime Player in my applications folder (version 7.6.6), but I don't see Quicktime Pro.
    Is Wikipedia right that I got a QT Pro license with FCS? If so, how do I activate it?
    If not, do I just purchase the upgrade from the Apple Store? How do I install/activate the upgrade it?
    Thanks

    I'd like to re-open this topic. I'm not sure that I have QT Pro either. I recently upgraded the OS to 10.6.4--which included a new QT Player [10.0 (114)]. None of the pro features are there--or the old preferences (or the QT System Prefs). I don't use QT Pro features much, and it's only been about a month since the upgrade, so I didn't notice until now. I used to have it. Did I miss something?

  • Is it possible to use Speech Recognition with Final Cut Studio?

    Is it possible to use Speech Recognition with Final Cut Studio?
    Using either Speech, AppleScript, Automator or a 3rd party app
    like iListen, can I enable Final Cut Studio apps to respond
    to voice commands?
    (e.g. I say "I" in Final Cut Pro and it sets an in point)
    thanks

    Yes, I wish "Make it really good" and "Fix my rough cut"
    were commmands too
    I did hear from the folks at iListen that
    they are planning on releasing a ScriptPak
    for Final Cut Studio next year which could be
    cool
    and that yes, iListen has some capability to
    integrate Speech Recognition with Final Cut,
    guess I need to give it a try for a test ride
