Audio specs:... I use audacity to reduce the noise. On most of my work, the audio is fine. but some.... nope.


It is stored on my external hard drive


The gray bar at the bottom was my screen. Here is another piece

There used to be a sound track. Now, gone.

What is really odd, is that the audio is there for me to save the finished file in Youtube, then when I go back into the file to modify it for another piece of content, the audio is red.

Doesn't happen all the time, but enough to be awful.

Try this.


If FCP X or iMovie start behaving unexpectedly in any way for no apparent reason, the problem could be caused by corrupt preference files. 


The cure for this is to delete the preferences. 


 Hold down the  Cmd and Option keys as you launch FCP X or iMovie and a window will appear asking if you wish to delete the preferences. 


Click “Delete Preferences” and FCP X or iMovie will open in the default (as-new) mode with no projects etc. on the interface. 


You will have to navigate to any project you were working on and reopen it. 


Deleting preferences is completely safe and because of its simplicity it should be the first thing you do when troubleshooting.
