EASY SETUPS
There are five settings in Final Cut Pro that directly
impact HDX-SDI operation:
Sequence preset
■
Capture preset
■
Device Control Preset
■
Video Playback
■
Audio Playback
■
Easy Setup (Figure 7-1) is a convenient way to
universally configure all of these settings according
to the video format you have chosen for your Final
Cut Pro project. Once you've chosen a HDX-SDI
Easy Setup, you can modify it as needed in Final
Cut Pro's Audio/Video Settings window
(Figure 7-2).
Figure 7-2: HDX-SDI Easy Setup settings can be adjusted in Final Cut Pro's Audio/Video Settings window.

FINAL CUT PRO AUDIO/VIDEO SETTINGS
To set up Final Cut Pro manually, without using an
Easy Setup, or to adjust the settings for an Easy
Setup, simply go to Final Cut Pro's Audio/Video
Settings window (Figure 7-2) and individually
select the HDX-SDI's capture, device control and
sequence presets. The HDX-SDI presets are
identified by either HDX-SDI or MOTU in their
name. If you don't see a preset for the capture or
playback scenario you need, this doesn't
necessarily mean it's not supported. It probably is,
and you can create your own. See "Creating
capture/playback presets" on page 47.
