Imported Audio from a CD contains a steady Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep

About once per second.

How do I eliminate that?

Thanks,

How did you import from the CD?

Sounds like it needs to be rendered in the timeline, which makes me think it's a piece of audio that needs to be converted, otherwise you will be rendering often.

Hello, thanks Doody. I am rendering it now. I think the original file on the cd is aiff format. Can I just convert that from within FCP?

QuickTime Player 7, Compressor or Soundtrack can convert it.
The file needs to be AIFF at 48kHz, 16 Bit.
