FINAL CUT PRO HELP!!! ANNOYING PULSE/BEEP IN PLAYBACK!I'm using FCP, and I'm trying to edit, but in the playback, instead of playing the real audio - I just hear annoying pulses/beeps every half second. How do I turn this off, and have it play the real audio/voices from the clip? TIA!!!! .................................................................

Depending on your system-performance, you can tell FCP how many audio-tracks in parallel it can playback without problems (like stuttering). FCP will then beep if you passed that limit, telling you to render your soundtrack. cheers -martin- -- In article <q12js21d1p6lbccql70k5qlnq3feqth***@4ax.com>,

NONE of these issues have ever come up for me with Vegas. And I mean that sincerely. I've done multi-track (15 or more audio tracks) with a mix of wave files at 44.1 & 48K, mp3, wma and even mp4s and Vegas doesn't care :-) Mike (who's seriously considering a Mac Pro Quad Xeon for his next purchase so please, no flames) Mike,
FYI........I bought a MacPro 3.0 Quad Xeon, and FCP HD Studio is fast but still slower in rendering than Vegas 7.0d on my lowly single processor 3.2 GHz P4 Dell. Both systems have identical SAT drives and 4 GB or RAM.

That's not good to hear.
On second thought, maybe it is. I've been going back and forth between the Mac and a quad core on a PC. You may have made my mind up for me. Thanks.

I was disappointed with the performance, since the rendering quality of FCP / Compressor is excellent, and I prefer it for this and other reasons if time is NOT of the essence. Apple offers XSERVE / render farm solutions which can speed up rendering, but the cost/performance increase is hardly compelling. I'm a loyal and committed user of the Mac since its inception, and I despise the bashing and holy wars surrounding platform zealots, but rendering speed is the only remaining penalty I have personally experienced with the latest and best Mac and FCP suite software.

No point actually testing out for yourself. inhabiting them, (notably in this instance mike and smarty) - where do you actually 'test out' all the various options? borrow a machine from your local store? pay hourly rate for studio using machine and software? i have found the discussions among the users on this and other groups to be my first port of call when considering any new equipment. i have yet to be mislead by qualified advice / reviews. and at the end of the day, have saved time and money by using other peoples experiences. on the other hand, there's a lot of people blowing a lot of hot air out of various orafices, but then again, you know where the smell is eminating from.... leslie In article <dNzyh.4473$sd2.3***@news-server.bigpond.net.au>,

What else could he be implying with that statement when leading with "And people wonder why I prefer editing on a PC"? I've had 15 tracks or more on Final Cut without so much as a hiccup. So what? The guy who posted could just have a wrong setting, a bad drive, forgot to do something relevant to the problem. Too bad he doesn't have Vegas! Then there'd be no problem! :) On Thu, 08 Feb 2007 08:31:06 GMT, Ura Dippschit <URN.Id***@idiots.com>

Then there'd be no problem! :) the Macintel's by the way :-) I thought a Dual-G4 always with seperate video-drive to be fast enough to handle 8 tracks, but the *bleeping* thing kept bleeping, with 2 tracks from the video, and 6 tracks uncompressed WAV (no effects). After a while the Render Audio before preview, becomes a rather natural habit :-)) -m- -- Ura Dippschit wrote:

I said that 15 tracks of varying audio formats WAS a problem for FCP and that this is something Vegas handles with ease. Mike In article <530go9F1qd69***@mid.individual.net>,

That's never happened to me on a Mac. Wonder why? of the "claim they have used mac" crowd. p.s. this same issue of the beeping happens on Premiere Pro too BTW when you mis match audio files.. -bill On 2007-02-07 12:33:16 -0800, Kill Bill <killb***@goblowme.com> said:

Whether using a Mac or PC or Final Cut or Vegas it is good to understand how the software works. If one buys a different computer it doesn't mean you'll know how to operate the software there either. -- Thank you and have a nice day.  |
