 Default: This option uses the output device you have selected in the Output pane of
the Sound pane of Mac OS X System Preferences (or in the Audio MIDI Setup utility).
If you want to control the audio output of Final Cut Pro from these locations, choose
this option. This is the default setting for audio output.
 Built-in Audio: This is your computer’s built-in audio interface.
 FireWire DV: If you connect a DV camcorder or deck to your computer, this option
becomes the default setting.
 Other available audio interfaces: If you have a third-party video or audio interface
