The sharpening actually wasn't necessary because I find that the FCP X NR filter does not blur the footage as much as many other noise reduction filters. I did a test with a 20" iPhone 7 clip slowed down to 50% with Optical Flow, to which I applied the NR filter with medium reduction and medium sharpening. The main advantage over things like Neat is that it runs in realtime and it does not bog your system down, even on lower-specced hardware. Generally, I find the NR filter in FCP X quite good. Anybody noticed this?Īs with any noise reduction filter, the results you get depend on many different factors.
Denoiser 2 slows my computer mac os#
Maxed out iMac 2015, Mac OS 10.14.1, FCP 10.4.4, 2160 XAVC 23,98, Original Media, exported to ProRes422 as Master. However, just to make sure I dragged the effect on top of the CC instances and exported the ranges - same stuttering. Someone somewhere had stated that it should always be the first effect - which never made a lot of sense to me and an advice I never followed myself. I vaguely remembered an old rule about Neat. Good enough, at least for my purpose, I only have a few noisy shadows after lifting the mids in slightly underexposed clips, not too distracting at all without NR.īUT: after exporting the project, the said clips stuttered!
Also liked the quality, didn't bother to compare it to Neat (which I also have). Was pleased to find that playback (with the effect applied) remained smooth, and the effect was only rendered on the frame the playhead was paused on. Now I've just finished editing a private travel video, just five minutes, three shots needed some NR. Didn't try the new NR effect in earnest, when 10.4.4 came out.
