Final Cut Pro X debuts a robust collection of new features for professional editors. A strikingly low-profile interface maximizes the workspace on any display. The new Magnetic Timeline 2 advances beyond traditional, track-based editing with automatic color coding and flexible layouts based on roles. The latest Final Cut Pro release also takes full advantage of the new MacBook Pro with support for the Touch Bar and comprehensive color workflows.

Final Cut Pro X is based on the Magnetic Timeline’s flexible timeline, which offers a new approach to video editing without tracks, with the ability to add and organize clips as conveniently as the author. In contrast, other clips immediately disappear from the screen. The author can use the Clip Connections feature to glue key clips with other elements, such as titles and sound effects, while maintaining perfect synchronization of all elements regardless of their movement.

Apple’s professional video editor received support for all of the fastest hardware Macs ever produced, working with 4K monitors through Thunderbolt 2 and HDMI ports and many new features, a variety of performance improvements, and stability.

Professional color grading tools are built into Final Cut Pro, including a dedicated color inspector with color wheels and hue/saturation curves. Use keyframes to adjust corrections over time, and apply camera and creative Look Up Tables (LUTs) for the perfect look. All color grading tools and scopes support High Dynamic Range (HDR) video.
