My Audio is absolutely fine on the timeline however when i export the video the audio sounds terrible (cracking and popping) please help! I have tried changing the audio sample rate and exporting different ways but nothing has worked!
Final Cut Pro X
To assist further we need to know some specifics.
What type of files are you using e.g. MP4 from still camera, 1920x1080i from Sony AVCHD video cam, iPhone footage?
What audio sample rate was the original and what have you tried?
Al
I have deleted all camera recording sounds and am using final cut sound effects (which i assumed would be compatible with final cut) They are CAF files with a 44.1Khz sample rate. I tried converting them to 48 and to mp3, however both these options have not worked. the problem only occurs when i export the final video, not on the timeline
I had the same problem. Deleted FCP-X, and compressor, removed preferences, rebooted and re-installed. Now I have an issue where it will fail to attach the video to the output files
Needless to say, I am thrilled with this new "feature"
One thing I did before that got rid of the pops/cracks was changing the compressor audio-settings to AAC instead of LPCM. That worked sometimes.
TThere can be a number of causes for this, and going to MP3, anything in MP3 is never a solution. It would help if you said which files you were using. Maybe it can be reproduced. Also what exactly are you doing to export the project?
Hey All,
I have a very similar problem when I exported to blu-ray. I've been working on a wedding with multicam clips (23.98i, stereo 48k), and during one of the speeches I dragged the multicam audio all the way down and instead added speech audio file (wave, stereo, 44.1) on the the timeline and synced it manually. The issue comes when export I it to blu-ray (1920x1080, 23.98fps; stereo, 48k) the audio is distorted and crackling only during the parts where the audio files is placed on a timeline where there is a multi-cam clip. Strangely this only happens for speeches, music soundtrack (mp3,44.1k) don't create the crackling distortion.
If I open angle editor for the multicam clip and add the same audio file into the multicam clip and export, the audio is fine. But if I place that same file under the multi-cam clip on the timeline and export it to blu-ray, the cracking and distortion comes back. Also note, the audio sounds fine during editing in fcpx (10.2.1), it's not clipping, as well, when I export it to DVD or H.264 file, these problems don't occur. Only during FCPX blu-ray burning does this occur.
I think this is a bug. Hope Apple has a solution for this.
Specs:
OS X 10.10.3
FCPX 10.2.1
External Blu Ray Burner - Samsung SE-506CB/RSBDM External USB 2.0 Blu-ray Write
Project - 1920x1080, 23.98p; stereo 44.1k
FFirst the project should be 48K. Also convert the MP3 to AIFF 48K.
Audio cracking/ popping after export!?
