Deleting Presets
You may decide to delete a preset that you’ve created. Before you delete it, make sure
you aren’t using it in current projects and won’t need it for future projects.
To delete a preset you’ve created:
1
Choose Final Cut Pro > Audio/Video Settings.
2
Click the appropriate preset tab.
3
Select the preset you want to delete, then click Delete.
 If the preset has a checkmark next to it designating it as the current preset, you cannot
delete it. You need to choose another preset as the current preset. To do this, click
the left column next to the preset you want to make the current one.
 If a preset has a locked icon in the right column, it is locked and cannot be deleted.
Creating Custom Easy Setups
If you use a particular group of presets regularly, you can create and save your own
Easy Setup. Whenever you need those settings, you can load your Easy Setup instead of
manually selecting specific settings or choosing particular presets.
Note: By default, the Easy Setup files you create are stored in the following location:
/Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro System Support/Custom Settings
The presets stored in the Easy Setups in this folder are displayed as unlocked items in
each preset tab in the Audio/Video Settings window.
Click the preset
you want to delete.
Click the appropriate
preset tab.
Then click Delete.
