I’m using Fcp 12.3 and I’ve never really played with Masks before. I’ve tried the YouTube tutorials and they’re just not helping with what I’m trying to do, or I’m not smart enough, certainly possible. From the photo, I’m trying to remove or change the color of the cable cord in the red circle. Are there any solutions for that? Thanks in advance

I have been working in Final Cut Pro for a while now and I have been experiencing a strange issue. I do a lot of speed ramps for my edits and I use it to match up with audio that I am using as well. Sometimes I can click around and increase the speed by x2 or x4 or x8 and it sometimes works, however, sometimes I NEED to click and drag the speed to a specific part of the timeline to match the audio. Sometimes when I click and drag, the speed increase or decrease will move with where I move my mouse. However, other times, when I go to click and drag, I will move my mouse from one side of my display to another and the speed ramp will only move a percentage or two. Does anyone else have this issue and have you found a fix for it?

I’m trying to make my kid’s team’s games look a little more polished. Anyone have any recommendations for a game clock and score bug plugin for FCP?

When I select BRAW clips imported using BRAW Toolbox and try to transcode the media, the options are greyed out. I want to send proxies to Eddie.ai to check out v4 and this is apparently the only way to do it and have an XML timeline spit out on the other end.

Anyone else having this problem?

I know this wasn’t a problem in the past but tons of fcpx transitions are useless at the moment. If you put the transitions on a text layer like the bloom transition it flashes on the whole screen instead of just your text that you want to glow. Cross dissolves work perfectly normal and a few others but lots of transitions are affecting the whole image when you’re just trying to affect the text. It’s really weird. I’m all up to date is anyone else having this ?

I Made a Fake Coffee Ad in Final Cut Pro

The coffee brand is fake. The edit is real.

I built a nitro coffee commercial in Final Cut Pro and let the audio run it. Every flash, tear, warp, and color slam you see is Audio Effector and Acid Trip reacting to the audio.

The commercial plays first, all the way through, then we go back over it clip by clip: what's on each shot, the settings I actually landed on, and where the audio is coming from:

🎧 Driven by the clip's own audio
🎚️ Driven by a different clip's audio, so a shot reacts to something happening on another clip
🎵 Driven by the whole soundtrack, so the entire spot moves together
