Where are custom keyboard command sets stored? I deleted FCP as I the SFX folder isn't anywhere on my Mac, but forgot to export my command set before deleting the app. Luckily I have a time machine backup, so if I would know where the command sets are stored I could find them! 😅

@richaesthetic /Users/#/Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro/Command Sets

@richaesthetic there is an overall system Library at /Library and then each user's Library at ~/Library

This is unedited double bass from Logic 11 I improvised on a tiny AKAI keyboard. No adjustments at all. That's incredibly lifelike! #logicpro

The Session Players in new suck, BUT the instruments themselves are fantastic! It somehow adds the expression you'd expect to hear. Maybe finally my dream of intuitive MIDI orchestra will come true?

‘Climate capitalism’ can help scale green solutions, new book says

"Some people say that the title of your book is an oxymoron — that, in a sense, capitalism is the root cause of the rapid growth of industrialization."

@gerrymcgovern it's funny how everyone talks about zero emissions, and yet emissions keep increasing, and the rate is accelerating

My dear friend Adam has long covid with me/cfs and now even his fucking Macbook has it!

His lasts like two hours tops of just browsing the web while my exact same 14" 2021 MBP easily does 3x or 4x as much. In fact I was exporting a 40m FCPX timeline yesterday and it only took like 9 % of battery, while taking 98 % of GPU.

@stooovie@mas.to avatar

This is a fairly typical 40m drama. Much, much less complex timeline with not nearly as many elements.

I'm not talking about storyline development or generally the amount of thought that goes into the edit. Just the sheer amount of technical complexity.

Kiddie shows are complex, underpaid and underappreciated.

Kiddie TV shows are usually much more complex than your usual dramas. This is one of the less complex 13m timelines.

stooovie,
@stooovie@mas.to avatar

FCPX has generally much tidier timelines because audio tracks are collapsed into a single clip, usually the video clip itself. This would look bonkers in Avid.

QC at the broadcaster doesn't know VERY obvious jumpcuts from compression glitches. WTF.

Thought for the day: Frank Zappa was a genius and understood exactly the role that rock music played in enabling young people to transgress the socio-sexual mores of society at that time. There are many Zappa videos on YouTube. Please take a look. From his very first appearance on American TV he disrupted convention thinking. People laughed because he was an odd ball, comic relief, but what he did was open minds to what is musically possible. Let me know if you agree!

God I love my 14" M1 Pro MBP. It's a flawless laptop. Dead silent, fast, fantastic machine. No notes.

You know what remake would be great?

Condemned: Criminal Origins

I'd absolutely, literally shit my pants. It's still the scariest game I've ever played. Well, Outlast is worse. But still.

@stooovie@mas.to avatar

peeps, how would you somehow mark or make a list of clips on the timeline that have some sort of transform (scale), stabilization and/or a specific effect applied?

I have to do a conform in Resolve from graded clips and would like to save some time, not having to check each clip for these adjustments.

stooovie,
@stooovie@mas.to avatar

@latenite hmhm, that doesn't really help me quickly glance the info over the entire sequence. It will be probably just a dozen of shots but I need something to help me find this dozen quickly so I don't have to go clip for clip. Any idea?

stooovie,
@stooovie@mas.to avatar

@latenite heh, I even have that one for years and haven't used it maybe ever, thanks :)

stooovie, (edited )
@stooovie@mas.to avatar

@latenite so close! but it fails to generate the actual spreadsheet (also doesn't accept fcpxmld, only fcpxml - tried to convert to older fcpxml using editingtools.io to no avail) 😭 probably needs updating, let's see if it's not abandoned

Great tip though!

stooovie,
@stooovie@mas.to avatar

@samplue sadly, not transforms and stabilization. otherwise, yeah. Thanks!

stooovie,
@stooovie@mas.to avatar

@samplue hey, you're right! Transforms are considered Effects, cool! thanks

stooovie,
@stooovie@mas.to avatar

@samplue And Stabilization as well, so that's sorted for me!

stooovie,
@stooovie@mas.to avatar

@latenite @mredig turns out Producer's Best Friend can do exactly this, and I already have it :) Thanks @samplue for the tip

stooovie,
@stooovie@mas.to avatar

@latenite @mredig @samplue Also FXBoomerang could work but it looks like it's abandoned.

stooovie,
@stooovie@mas.to avatar

@latenite yeah, confirmed abandoned :(
