audio beeping and rendering in FCP3

[Richard Brown]

If your intent is to go to DVD, avoiding rendering audio is a big plus. 
If your camera can
record in 16 bit 48KHz, keep this depth all the way through your 
project. Digital
re-rendering from low to high is the sort of thing that makes audio 
engineers
cringe. Even the state of the art in "up-rezzing" creates digital sonic 
impurities,
which, while often negligible, in bad cases is atrocious. We never have 
any
troubles here even with a bunch of 48KHz tracks, either on a TiBook, or 
on our
desktop editors. Were it only that music libraries thought in 48KHz.
