I am starting on descript and the upload process from clips of videos has been super frustrating, they overload the program and some of them don't get transcribed. Any tips to smooth out the upload process? Love your videos, got yourself a new follower ;)

I love Descript so much and I really appreciate you showing us your process 💕💕 I just have a slight problem with it in terms of speed, I have a 16gb RAM and AMD RYZEN 5 processor and I've used this on a MacBook air with similar RAM but it still freezes. What are your computer specs?
