FCP 10.6 macOS Monterey SLOW & NOT RESPONDING!

Just updated to macOS Moneterey and FCP 10.6 yesterday. Tried using FCP with it today but the loading screen is super super super super slow!!!!!!


I'm connecting a Sandisk Extreme Pro directly to it.

I'm also using a MBP 16: 2019.


Does anybody else face this problem?

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 12.0

Is it the same if you try to open a library on your MBP's internal SSD? From my experience and testing, the problem seems to be use of USB3/TB3 external discs upon which the libraries are hosted.

Using a library on the internal storage seems to be unaffected.


May not be the case for all I expect but that's certainly what I've found for now. Hopefully a bug fix for Monterey will sort it.
