Unrivaled pro performance.
With optimizations for Applesilicon and the power of its Metal engine, FinalCutPro allows you to edit more complex projects and work with larger frame sizes, higher frame rates, and more effects — all at incredible speeds. And it’s built to harness the extreme power of MacPro, MacStudio or MacBookPro for next-level performance.
Optimized for Applesilicon
FinalCutPro features breathtaking performance and efficiency on Mac computers with Applesilicon. Tap into superfast unified memory shared across the CPU, the GPU, and the AppleNeuralEngine to play back more high-resolution video streams and render your movie in record time.
The tools you need. Fromstart to finishing.
With great features and an intuitive design, FinalCutPro accelerates post-production. So editors can create and deliver at the speed of thought.
The Magnetic Timeline allows you to easily experiment with story ideas by moving and trimming clips without collisions or sync problems. Use Compound Clips to bundle separate video and audio clips into a single movable package, create Auditions to try out multiple takes in the timeline, and use Synchronized Clips to align video with second-source audio automatically. Color coding makes it easy to identify different types of content, with the ability to customize the look of your timeline while youedit.
FinalCutPro offers the most advanced organizing tools of any professional video editing application. Easily tag entire clips or clip ranges with metadata for searching, and create Smart Collections that automatically collect content according to a set of custom criteria. In the browser you can create and save custom column views and search for media using clip names, markers, and notes. Also quickly sort clips by proxy, optimized, or missing media types.
Create 2D and 3D titles right in FinalCutPro, apply and modify filters, and use the built-in chroma key for high-quality green- and blue-screen effects. Expand on the built-in effects with thousands of third-party tools and templates. And for even more control, use Motion to create stunning titles, transitions, generators, and effects you can access from FinalCutPro.

FinalCutPro lets you edit multichannel audio using built-in tools like Voice Isolation to enhance speech by reducing background noise and optimizing levels. Adjust multichannel audio files in the timeline or open the inspector for more information and options. Choose from dozens of bundled plug-ins for audio compression, EQ, and more — or send to a professional audio application like LogicPro for advanced audiomixing.

Quickly encode video using the power of multicore CPUs and high-performance GPUs. Take advantage of presets to deliver ultra-high-quality masters or files optimized for iPhone, iPad, AppleTV, and websites like YouTube and Vimeo. And batch exporting makes it fast to deliver multiple files or projects in multiple formats. You can also use Compressor to create custom export settings that appear right in FinalCutPro.

Duplicate Detection
Quickly display any audio or video that appears more than once in your project with highlighted clip ranges in the timeline. Or you can list all matches in the Timeline Index. Select a clip to show its duplicates and use keyboard shortcuts to instantly navigate between them.
Multicam
The industry’s most advanced multicam editing lets you automatically sync up to 64 angles of video with different formats, frame sizes, and frame rates. View up to 16 angles at once in the Angle Viewer. And open the Angle Editor timeline to move, sync, trim, add effects, or color grade individualclips.
Motion and Compressor
Create stunning effects and sweeping graphics with Motion, including studio-quality 2D and 3D titles you can open and adjust in FinalCutPro. Use Compressor to create custom export settings and streamline delivery of your movie to the iTunesStore. And because FinalCutPro, Motion, and Compressor all share the same Metal architecture, you’ll experience blazing performance and consistent rendering across applications.

Advanced color grading.
Every pixel closer to perfection.
Professional color grading tools are built into FinalCutPro, including a dedicated color inspector with color wheels, color curves, 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 HighDynamicRange (HDR) video.
Unique color wheels improve on traditional controls by combining hue, saturation, and brightness into a single, simpleinterface.
Color and luminance curves allow ultrafine level adjustments with multiple control points to target specific color and brightnessranges.
Sample a color with an eyedropper and change just the hue, saturation, or luminance of a specific color within theimage.
High Dynamic Range
Work closer to reality than ever before with HDR video. Import, edit, grade, and deliver incredibly lifelike images with FinalCutPro. Shoot on industry-standard cinema cameras, or in stunning Dolby Vision with the latest iPhone models. High-resolution scopes reflect HDR brightness levels as you edit. And the new Automatic Color Conform feature lets you instantly tone-map video, still images, generators, and Motion titles — from SDR to HDR or from HDR toSDR.
Image simulates the effectofHDR.
HDR on Apple displays
The industry-leading LiquidRetinaXDR display delivers 1000 nits of sustained brightness and 1600 nits of peak brightness, amazing contrast and vivid colors — perfect for HDR editing, grading, and delivery with FinalCutPro. Or connect the ProDisplayXDR to your Mac for a full 6K HDR playback and finishing solution.
ProRes RAW. The flexibility of RAW with the performance of ProRes.
Import, edit, and grade original, untouched footage with RAW data straight from your camera sensor — without sacrificing any speed or smoothness. Create native ProRes RAW files using Atomos recorders and the DJI Inspire 2 drone and experience all the creative advantages of RAW with the real-time performance of ProRes.
ProRes performance
Remarkably smooth playback and real-time, multistream editing are part of the ProRes RAW package. The format is optimized for macOS and the latest Mac computers, allowing you to render and export faster than with other RAW formats. And if you’re working on MacStudio or MacBookPro, the M1Ultra, M2Pro, and M2Max chips further accelerate ProRes RAW performance. Since ProRes RAW files are smaller than standard formats, you can fit more footage on everycard.

RAW flexibility
Work with untouched image data directly from your camera sensor. RAW files provide maximum flexibility for adjusting the look of your video while extending brightness and shadows — an ideal combination for HDR workflows. The new ProRes RAW Settings window in FinalCutPro provides enhanced options for ISO, color temperature, and exposure offset from supported devices for an even deeper level of control. And now camera makers can enable their native color processing with the new ProRes RAW plug-in architecture.
