choppy audio track

Hello there, while editing some movie inside FCPX 10.1.3 I noticed the following (image speaks more than words):





After exporting (rendering) the project... well... the audio sounds exactly as the waveform itself suggests: choppy, stuttered, chunked. The wierd thing is, that the original media is ok. FCPX must had any kind of problem while importing into the event.

By any chance, has anyone here faced to similar issue? what I am doing wrong?

Many thanks in advance.

Usual questions, sample rate, film type etc?

Should be fine. Try making a proxy or optimized copy of this clip. Just to see if anything changes.

Hi Ben,

do you mean, transcode it inside FCPX?

well, I finally re-converted audio stream to linear PCM, imported to FCPX event and reworked the project. Output is now fine. Though I would love that Apple solve this behaviour in future updates.

Look forward to seeing Apple fix some problems like this .
