Hi! My FCP library is taking up 30 gigs on my computer and I cannot figure out how. I went through and deleted every file in my library and tried the delete generated library files hack that comes up when I search for help online. I would love any advice or help on how to clear all this storage. Thank you!!

Hey everyone! I’m on the hunt for a Final Cut Pro tutorial that's similar in tone to Andrew Price's (Blender Guru) Blender donut tutorial; Which is to say something that uses a fun "dummy" project with a clear final goal, that organically covers all aspects of FCPX in a way that feels necessary to progress said project toward completion. So far, all i've managed to find are tips and tricks videos, or even long "beginner to expert" type tuts/series, which are useful too of course, but all these seem to just use random placeholder assets to explain isolated concepts without much continuity, whi ..read more

Hello Im using FCPX with a lot of add on. I’m mainly using 90% of the time the same add on (titles, effects, transitions), with the same setting (letter size, color, type of effect and so and so) I’m actually keeping all my settings in .. notes to avoid forgetting something.. everytime I need to found my add on and setting all the time manually I want to know if there is a way to keep some add on as kind of favorite, same I’m doing in Lightroom for example Even if it’s an extra software to buy and install for example Thx submitted by /u/NicolasH31 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hello! I apologize if this is a silly question but I will be upgrading my laptop with FCP 10.4.7 to a new MacBook Pro with the latest FCP. Will I have any problems transferring my library as it’s coming from an older version of FCP? Thank you in advance! submitted by /u/Lighthouse23 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi editors, how can I change the name of an effects preset folder in FCP? I named it "Testing Shubham" but now I want to change it. https://preview.redd.it/chh01d4xd8yc1.jpg?width=340&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f0fb6b12f2df85ac3059ae93d52bb02a1b866eef submitted by /u/ExistingAd8421 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

So I have 2 problems that I believe are connected somehow. I'm trying to export this project for like the 10-th time. Always failing at some point. The files I recieve as exported are broken and in 2-3 occasions the exported video is running smooth until the 2th hour and 40mins mark. Which is the same moment I encounter my second problem. My multicam clips are flicking to black in few different moments. I uploaded screenshots and video of what I see at this moments (marked them with chapter). The audio doesn't stop. It's interesting that in preview I can see the video, but in my multicam wind ..read more

I had a M1 Pro Macbook behaving extremely slow with Final Cut. So I changed to M1 MAX and it is still behaving the same. The entire editing process is so laggy that I almost want to switch back to premiere pro. I am editing a 4k footage on a FHD timeline and even a basic text editing can get laggy. I suspected a slow SSD external hard drive so I tried moving the library to the desktop and it is still the same. I am running the latest firmware of Final Cut. My library tend to get pretty big at over 100gb so can this be the problem? submitted by /u/Glass-Importance-908 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
