Final Cut Pro 10.7 - Loses Space Designer Presets

I updated Final Cut Pro to 10.7, looking forward to try out the new features, and when I added a Space Designer preset it did nothing.

I opened the settings page for that preset, and it shows "file missing" - a tweaked Apple preset BTW.

I selected an entirely different preset, and same thing.

I then click "load IR" which it navigated directly to it and I only had to click "open".

Now it shows the file is added, and even the audio waveform, but as soon as you hit play, it goes missing again.

What the... Any other ideas I can try?

I just updated Logic and restarted, and it began working again. That was weird....

Have you tried 10.7.1?

This is not what anyone wants to hear, but a TEMP workaround is, when selecting the "preset" in Space Designer, select "synthesized IR". It is not exactly the same, and it's a pain...but it works.

Use feedback to report the problem.

No, they are Apple presets. The first one I chose was a modified preset. But none of the standard ones "keep" (for lack of a better term) within the Space Designer effect. If I were to choose "small room" or "cathedral" from the effects list (not via Space Designer), those will work. It's just everything and anything within Space Designer. Space Designer is within the Logic submenu. But even the other two ChromaVerb and SilverVerb, work fine as well.

Until there is a fix, you can always *save* an audio effects preset with Save Effects Preset, just like video effects. I am not able to confirm whether effects presets lose their settings in 10.7+ as I am still running v10.4.10.

You should report this using FCP feedback. There is definitely a significant coding error there. For those who don’t have Logic there is no immediate fix.

I'm having the same issue, haven't found any fix at all. I'm a narrator and rely heavily on space designer to do my work, I really need this fixed soon. I've also submitted feedback, let's hope this gets fixed soon
