@@JoshuaTimothy I generally film videos playing guitar and or music videos for my songs. Reviews. I generally have at least a few wav files to sync to. I wish this app would do an audio sync like premiere pro.

hey joshua is it worth getting apple pen for editing videos on luma fusion and how's difference using with finger 🙂 how u gonna rate in case of colour gradung out of 10 in luma fusion
The pencil works the same as touch for editing videos, but for me it’s often more comfortable to edit and reach the screen with the pencil. Color grading isn’t the best in LumaFusion, but they have a color grading update coming out later this year. My favorite color grading app is “Grain” by Moment. You can create a LUT, and then load that LUT in LumaFusion. I hope to make a video on that in the near future.
did Multicam edit and tools like vector scope and the colors wheel also got released ? They are rumored to be out with the newest version but still haven't seen them til now?
If you are planning on editing lots of videos I would not go less than 256 GB of storage. It fills up fast. So that puts you at $750 for the iPad Air 5 or $900 for the iPad Pro 11. Personally I would choose the Pro 11 for the Pro Motion Display and more ram, and slightly bigger screen. That said, if you really need to save $200 the IPad Air 5 will perform just as fast with the M1. I hope that helps, the two iPads are really close in performance and both will edit videos well.
@@JoshuaTimothy - thanks for playing 20 questions with me. I own a Galaxy Tab S7+ and was hoping I could learn on that. I don't want to spend the money on iPad... New sub here, and thanks!
You either need to transfer them to the SSD through your computer or off of your iPad. Or you can plug a multiple port hub into your iPad, and then you can plug in your SD card and SSD at the same time, never needing to first transfer them to your iPad or computer first.
Do you recommend buying the iPad Mini 6 for this? I'm considering it because I'm a Dji user. Would the iPad mini version of Lumafusion have the same functions and effects? I'm also thinking about iPad Air 4 but it's too big to attach the drone RC. I have an Android phone but the Dji fly app is not available officially in Playstore. Thanks!
Very helpful video. Thanks! I’ve just got an iPad Pro a few days ago. I’m just learning to use Lumafusion and so far I’m loving it! I wondered about getting an Apple Pencil as so far I’m just using touch. Would you recommend getting one? They are expensive I know and I’ll only be using it for editing tbh but if it’s going to help me in the long run, I’m going to get one. Editing with your fingers solely can be clumsy! TIA.
Hey Joshua, Thanks for making this video. Just wondering, what mouse are you using with your iPad? Also, once it's connected, can you still use the pencil as, well, they don't cancel each other out?
My pleasure. I’m using the Microsoft Ergonomic Mouse and yes you can have both connected at the same time. Then which ever one you use will instantly work.
Since editing on external ssd is an option is it still relevant to spec out the ipad storage to 256gb? Or 64gb does just as fine? Looking to save some cash to get a magic keyboard.
I would get 256gb. You’ll be surprised how fast apps and other files fill up the space. I do edit all my large projects off of the SSD. I had to return my 64gb iPad Air because I kept running out of space.
Yes, you can edit directly off of an SD as long as you use a USB-C SD card reader. They usually don’t recommend editing on an SD card because they have slower transfer speeds than SSDs. If you get a SD card that has 90+ mbps, you’ll probably be fine for simple projects.
@@JoshuaTimothy btw the reason I asked this question because I want to know if I can edit my footage directly from SDcard after I took my footage from the camera, so it would ease my workflow
@@eqbalraihan7542 if you have enough storage on the iPad, the ideal workflow when working with a SD card would be to connect the SD card to the iPad and then in LumaFusion, import the videos into LumaFusion. Then you are not limited to the SD card speed while editing.
@@JoshuaTimothy i really appreciate man! I already went to the Luma Fusion site and watched the introduction of the new version! In fact I’m editing right now, I really love this app
I’m using the iPad Air 4. It’s a powerful device at a cheaper price. Just make sure you get the 256 GB. Editing videos on the iPad Air is a lot faster than my newer Intel computer.
@@benarnoux They sure have. I just got mine this year. Its refreshing to be able to sit on the couch relaxing while editing videos, especially after a long day sitting at a desk.
Yes it can! In this video I was using the iPad Air to do everything, including editing off of an SSD. The iPad Air is a great alternative, if you want to save some money and not buy the Pro.
@@JoshuaTimothy wow 😲 this a very good news im planning on buying ipad pro to have more storage but now that i can edit files from an ssd i can save money 🙏 more power to your channel thank you
@@JoshuaTimothy well im planning to use ipad air 4 to edit school documents /edit some photos and edit vlogs for tiktok and RUclips vids. Im just a casual user ..
An SSD is similar to a hard drive but is a lot faster. This helps create a smooth editing experience. You can still edit off of a hard drive for most types of video files, but it will load a lot slower.
Does it give option for higher bit rate while importing the video? For example, 4K videos taken from my Sony A6400 is very large as compared to my mobile. Does it allows editing of these videos taken from camera? Because my android mobile apps doens't support that, it kills the audio while editing.
Yes it supports the highest quality video. I’ve edited ProRes 422, 4K, 10-bit, and HDR footage. It will take just about anything you throw at it and can then export in Best Quality also.
Hi, Joshua. Really helpful videos. You are definitely going to grow in RUclips. I have a quick question: what hub do you use when need to charge and have and external SSD connected at the same time? I mean a hub that allows editing directly on the SSD. Thanks and keep making videos!
Thanks Ricardo. There are a couple ways, the simplest, but most expensive is with the Apple Magic Keyboard. You can charge your iPad through the keyboard and still use the usb c port on the iPad for accessories. I use the Hyper Drive 6 in 1 USB-C Hub. It supports USB-C Power delivery as well as data through the USB-C port (a lot of hubs don’t support data through the USB-C). This hub also has a USB-A port, so you can plug in your charger into the usb-c and your SSD into the USB-A. The Samsung T7 SSD comes with a USB-C and USB-A cable.
@@JoshuaTimothy that’s a great option. But doesn’t the USB-A port limit the transfer speed of the SSD? I understand USB-A connections aren’t as fast as the USB-C and/or Thunderbolt ones, but please correct me if I’m wrong. That’s why I’m having a hard time choosing the right hub, because almost all of them only have the USB-C port for power transfer. Thank you again, Joshua.
@@ricmrll it’s complicated, USB-C is just a plug end. It can be USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or USB 3.1 and more, each with different speeds. Both the USB-C and USB-A ports on the HyperDrive hub are USB 3.1 Gen 1 which both support 5Gb/s transfer. Thunderbolt is even faster than USB but only supported on the new iPad Pro 2021, you’ll need a thunderbolt hub for that, if you want to access that speed.
Hey Josua. Thank you for whole process fpr editing one this app.Really appreciate your work . I have one question , i hope you can address it. I am working on Luma Fusion now and want that whole project Premier Pro Windows for more work on that project . Is it Possible ? Any lead would be really appreciate.
Yes it is possible, there’s a small workaround using Davinci Resolve, and I think there is a plug-in for premiere, but I don’t know much about that one. In LumaFusion you’ll export the file as an xml. Then follow this tutorial for the workaround: ruclips.net/video/5S0O3Y2mm1A/видео.html
@@JoshuaTimothy Thank you Joshua . Plugin ? Could you lead me to there if possible ? One more question . Is there any limitation you faced where you wanted to switch back to PC Or Laptop? As i can see you more experienced with this app. Any Help would be really appreciate
@@RajBarat making videos for RUclips, I think I can do almost anything with LumaFusion. Masking and speed ramping are easier on a PC, but I know speed ramping is coming to LumaFusion later this year. Probably one of the biggest limitations of LumaFusion is if you need more than 6 tracks of video and audio. Most of my videos don’t need that, so I prefer to just edit in LumaFusion.
This is a helpful video. I have one question though. Pardon my ignorance. I notice that many RUclipsrs are excited about editing off external drives in the latest Lumafusion update. How do you get footage onto your external drive? I have to put footage onto my ssd from Lumafusion. That much I get. Are you hooking up your drives directly to your cameras? I don’t understand how to get footage onto my ssd unless I transfer it over from Lumafusion. Do you do this then remove it all from Lumafusion to save space? Then I can see why but it seems to be an extra step. Care to comment?
I think you can connect a dongle with multiple inputs to your iPad which lets you connect a card reader and your external drive at the same time. I believe you can then transfer files from the sd card to the external drive.
It’s probably easier to use the Files app to transfer files than LumaFusion. But to answer your question, a lot of people have a USB C dock which allows you to connect multiple devices like a ssd, sd card, or camera at the same time. Then you can drag the files over from your camera’s sd card to the ssd. Or you can use another computer to transfer all your files to the ssd before your start editing on the iPad.
Hi I'm planning to purchase LumaFusion. However, I only have a iPad 8th Gen, 128 GB. Do you think this app will work okay with my current iPad? I'm still saving for the pro.Imma use the app for school editing and random short films. I have a macbook and iPhone so I'm not really worried about transferring files. I'm torn between VLLO and LumaFusion. This Lumafusion just have a lot features I'm interested in, but I'm not sure if this will work fine with my current iPad.
Yes LumaFusion is compatible with the iPad 8th gen and will work great. I started editing in LumaFusion on my iPhone 12, and then the iPad Air. The iPad Air is a great device for editing with that A14 processor, it’s almost as fast as the iPad Pro if you want to save some money.
@@JoshuaTimothy I just bought the LumaFusion. Thank you for the advice. And yes, I’m considering the recent iPad Air. Subscribed to your Channel just right now.
Yes LumaFusion is a one time purchase. They will have additional feature packs to buy in the future if you want, but the core features of LumaFusion will always be a one time purchase.
Hey brother, Is there any difference in the video quality after rendering from premiere Pro on macbook and rendering from luma fusion on iPad. Video configuration like fps, bit rate everything is same. Tell me.।।
I bought a hub to access all my videos off all my hard drives using Luma Fusion on my new 2021 iPad Pro. So far all that shows up is some of the folders containing the videos but not the actual videos. I am wondering if this can only be done using solid state hard drives.
It might be the adapter or the formatted file system of your hard drive, I’m not sure. I just tried it with the Hyper Drive USB C hub that I use and my external HDD and it worked good in LumaFusion. In my newest video, there is a link in the description to the Hyper Drive USB C Hub that I use.
@@JoshuaTimothy - I can access the videos on the hard drives on my PC using Video Studio. I can’t see why Luma Fusion can’t except the same formats. It could be the nice hub I bought isn’t allowing these videos through for some strange reason. I will now look to the hub you have tried tested and recommend. I don’t mind editing on my PC laptop but it’s becoming way more convenient to use the iPad for editing.
@@paullaviolette2610 hard drives can have different file system formats which sometimes are not compatible with apple. If that’s the case you can always reformat the drive to a compatible format.
Thanks man I edit off my phone and I don’t have enough storage for that 4K quality and my computer just broke so LumaFusion and a external hard drive is goin to be the move for a little bjt
I’m not sure editing off the ssd will work on a phone. I’m pretty sure LumaFusion requires that the device has a USB C port. The Lightning port is not fast enough for editing. You can however, connect your ssd to your phone using the lightning to USB adapter and then temporarily transfer the footage over to your phone until you are finished with your edit.
@@ArcosGonzalez the iPad Air 4 is perfect for Video editing especially if you want to save a little money compared to the Pro. It can tackle anything you throw at it. Just make sure you get the 256Gb version.
Good question, I just tested it, and it worked. I was able to edit a small test video of 1080p and 4K footage right of the sd card with my USB C adapter. Everything felt a bit slower, but it wasn’t a horrible experience.
Nice video.... not sure if it was an irony or just sensitivity blow out.... 5:45 kind of hollow an tinny sounding, ironic given you are talking about audio quality 😆. Other than that awesome info man! getting started in the drone and editing thing myself!
A lot of portable hard drives require too much power or are too slow to edit smoothly, but it could work if you can connect the hard drive via USB C. I haven’t tested it yet, but I did try with a SD card and it allowed me to edit off of that. It was quite a bit slower though.
I just tried connecting my hard drive to my USB C hub and everything works great editing in LumaFusion. So yes, if you hard drive gets enough power and is fast enough, you can definitely edit off of it.
Yes it will work if you have the right adapter. The only thing to worry about is speed, and if the drive you use receives sufficient power, that’s why they only recommend SSDs.
It’s probably fine for editing 1080p video. I don’t have one to test how good it would handle 4K. Let me know how your editing experience goes if you start editing on your iPad.
Hello, and a big thumbs up for this very informative video ! I would like to take this opportunity to ask you a question : in your opinion, is it possible to transfer Canon C-Log3 files from a Canon EOS R6 body to a latest generation iPad Pro 12.9 (M1) via a USB-C cable ? I just tried and obviously it does not work ... Is it then possible to transfer these files via an SD card reader ? Thank you so much !
That’s interesting, it must be how Canon implements their file system. I can connect my Sony A7SIII via USB C and it transfers everything over nicely in the files app. Yes an SD card reader or an SSD will work great.
@@JoshuaTimothy Ok Joshua, thank you very much for those informations ! I’ve tried USB-C cable on a demonstration iPad in a store without success ; I’m gonna try now with an SD card reader before buying the new iPad !!!! Thanks a lot, best regards. Vanessa
wow i thought u had to import all your video and audio files into ipad to use editing software i thought u could't plug a external drive into i pad and run it from external drive well now i either wrong info or something, thats one reason why i went with the larger 512 internal-drive on my ipad pro 11 but i use alot of art and videos in my creations so 512 is fine for me but expensive
My buddy told me lumafusion does not support editing my Sony a6600 video movie formats XAVC S / AVCHD and it's a sad day for me :{ but these videos are pretty cool mate... keep it up!
Oh bummer, is their any way for the Sony a6600 to record in XAVC-S mp4? I’ve been testing footage from various XAVC mp4 formats on the Sony A7sIII, and LumaFusion has been doing a good job. But ya their website says that iOS doesn’t support .mts files.
It is nice to be able to edits off the external SSD but getting files from SD card to the external SSD drive is pain in the butt. Plus I shoot video with my iphone 12 pro, it's hard to get files into the external SSD. Anyone have a better way without losing time. I don't use laptop or desktop. How do you get files from iphone to external SSD? SSD is USB-C and iphone is lightnigng. Airdrop from iphone to ipad pro is the easiest but what's the point of having SSD then?
The file management process on iOS and iPad OS needs a lot of improvement. I have transferred files from iPhone to my SSD with the Apple lightning to USB adapter, but air drop is faster than lightning. For SD cards you can use a hub like the Hyper Drive 6 in 1. You can plug in the SSD and the SD card at the same time. For those that have an iPad with limited storage an SSD would allow them to work on multiple projects at the same time without running out of storage.
@@JoshuaTimothy I have the USB-C HUB with 6 in 1, But still required me to transfer from the SD card to the SSD. So i just shoot in 1080p and edits off the SD card without transfer. It's faster but it's 1080p not 4K. SD card is slow only 130mb but it handled 1080p just find.
Much hype re: “working directly from an SSD”. And then I saw you cannot do this unless you have a built in USB-C port on your iPad, no dongle work around for Lightening Ports. Is this true?
It definitely can for probably 80% of people’s workflows. Personally I prefer to edit in LumaFusion on an iPad than sitting at my computer using Premiere Pro.
Nice video thanks. I do not use LumaFusion yet. Why use LumaFusion when you use a keyboard and mouse, why not just do it on your computer with FCP or something? Thanks!
I spend my day at work editing on the computer, so I prefer to use LumaFusion to edit my own videos because I can relax on the couch and edit. I mainly use the Apple Pencil and touch when I edit.
for some reason, since i use a Galaxy s21 ultra there is nothing i can do to get the same good quality out of lumafusion as when i used my oneplus 7 pro and also my oneplus nord te record. when directly uploading from the phone it's way better so the problem is not in the phone's camera... it's not broken or anything. can you please tell me what the problem could be ?
@@beautyneytiri a couple things to try, when you export your video, export to your camera roll or files app at a high quality, then try uploading to RUclips from a desktop computer. If you are uploading from the RUclips app, make sure you go into settings and make sure high quality upload is turned on.
Can please make a video on iPad air 4 showing lumafusion 3.0 video editing on external ssd. If possible to use external ssd in lumafusion video editing on iPad Air 4 like we can do in iPad Pro m1???
2:15 How can you say there is no lag and it is running smoothly just as it lags and stutters? That’s like declaring a riot with flames in the background to be a mostly-peaceful protest. Am I missing something or is there some reason I shouldn’t trust my eyes but instead trust your words? And no, I’m not hating. I just bought an 12.9 M1 and would like to believe that I can do serious editing on it.
That was me scrolling through my footage with my finger and pausing. There was no lag in that video. That said, after I made that particular video I have found some stock footage during additional testing that did lag when I sped it up 400x. You can do some serious editing on it and 90% of video clips won’t lag.
Joshua, it would have been so much better if you had shown EXACTLY what and where the Resize UI icon is. You know, like ZOOMING IN TO THE SCREEN so we can actually SEE IT, and not just tapping in some vague location while saying “this icon!” I spent way too long tapping the little checkerboard icon in that spot, getting frustrated and thinking something was wrong with my iPad. You also could have said “the icon that looks like an upside-down “T”. That would have been REALLY USEFUL!
That’s why I had to switch from android to Apple. As a video editor, the software available on the iPad and iPhone makes desktop work possible on any device you carry with you.

@@JoshuaTimothy I’m so glad I found and subscribed to your channel,thanks for the help!
@@helithunder56 thanks for the support. I hope to have some new videos in the next couple weeks.
Which sound editor do you use?
I use GarageBand.
@@JoshuaTimothy 👍
@@JoshuaTimothy 👍
This was very interesting! Which iPad is a good middle ground to work with?
I’m using the iPad Air 4. It’s a powerful device at a cheaper price. Just make sure you get the 256 GB. Editing videos on the iPad Air is a lot faster than my newer Intel computer.
@@JoshuaTimothy cool, thanks! iPads have come a long way
@@benarnoux They sure have. I just got mine this year. Its refreshing to be able to sit on the couch relaxing while editing videos, especially after a long day sitting at a desk.
Air 4 i say
@@JoshuaTimothy could it handle footage from a pocket 4k?
Can ipad air also do that?
How about document files? Can you edit it on an ssd?
Yes it can! In this video I was using the iPad Air to do everything, including editing off of an SSD. The iPad Air is a great alternative, if you want to save some money and not buy the Pro.
@@JoshuaTimothy wow 😲 this a very good news im planning on buying ipad pro to have more storage but now that i can edit files from an ssd i can save money 🙏 more power to your channel thank you
@@enriejayocate7994 I’m glad that helps! What kind of videos do you like to edit?
@@JoshuaTimothy well im planning to use ipad air 4 to edit school documents /edit some photos and edit vlogs for tiktok and RUclips vids. Im just a casual user ..
Does the ssd heat up a lot while editing?
Great video by the way!
Thanks! My Samsung T7 does get warm, but not hot to the touch. It might depend on what SSD you are using.
Which iPad Pro are you using?
I’m actually using the iPad Air 4.
Ssd? Is this the same as an external hard drive? I have one that has 1tb. Will this not work?
An SSD is similar to a hard drive but is a lot faster. This helps create a smooth editing experience. You can still edit off of a hard drive for most types of video files, but it will load a lot slower.
Does it give option for higher bit rate while importing the video? For example, 4K videos taken from my Sony A6400 is very large as compared to my mobile. Does it allows editing of these videos taken from camera? Because my android mobile apps doens't support that, it kills the audio while editing.
Yes it supports the highest quality video. I’ve edited ProRes 422, 4K, 10-bit, and HDR footage. It will take just about anything you throw at it and can then export in Best Quality also.
@@JoshuaTimothy Awesome, i just saw that option in your video. Thanks for sharing such important information. Kudos to your work.
@@thevijayraj34 thanks man, it’s been crazy busy around here. But I hope to work on another video this weekend.
@@JoshuaTimothy waiting for your next video 📸
Hi, Joshua. Really helpful videos. You are definitely going to grow in RUclips. I have a quick question: what hub do you use when need to charge and have and external SSD connected at the same time? I mean a hub that allows editing directly on the SSD. Thanks and keep making videos!
Thanks Ricardo. There are a couple ways, the simplest, but most expensive is with the Apple Magic Keyboard. You can charge your iPad through the keyboard and still use the usb c port on the iPad for accessories. I use the Hyper Drive 6 in 1 USB-C Hub. It supports USB-C Power delivery as well as data through the USB-C port (a lot of hubs don’t support data through the USB-C). This hub also has a USB-A port, so you can plug in your charger into the usb-c and your SSD into the USB-A. The Samsung T7 SSD comes with a USB-C and USB-A cable.
@@JoshuaTimothy that’s a great option. But doesn’t the USB-A port limit the transfer speed of the SSD? I understand USB-A connections aren’t as fast as the USB-C and/or Thunderbolt ones, but please correct me if I’m wrong. That’s why I’m having a hard time choosing the right hub, because almost all of them only have the USB-C port for power transfer. Thank you again, Joshua.
@@ricmrll it’s complicated, USB-C is just a plug end. It can be USB 2.0, USB 3.0, or USB 3.1 and more, each with different speeds. Both the USB-C and USB-A ports on the HyperDrive hub are USB 3.1 Gen 1 which both support 5Gb/s transfer. Thunderbolt is even faster than USB but only supported on the new iPad Pro 2021, you’ll need a thunderbolt hub for that, if you want to access that speed.
@@JoshuaTimothy excellent explanation, man. I kinda understand now. Thanks a lot!
I have the 6 in one hyperdrive
Hey Josua. Thank you for whole process fpr editing one this app.Really appreciate your work . I have one question , i hope you can address it. I am working on Luma Fusion now and want that whole project Premier Pro Windows for more work on that project . Is it Possible ? Any lead would be really appreciate.
Yes it is possible, there’s a small workaround using Davinci Resolve, and I think there is a plug-in for premiere, but I don’t know much about that one. In LumaFusion you’ll export the file as an xml. Then follow this tutorial for the workaround: ruclips.net/video/5S0O3Y2mm1A/видео.html
@@JoshuaTimothy Thank you Joshua . Plugin ? Could you lead me to there if possible ? One more question . Is there any limitation you faced where you wanted to switch back to PC Or Laptop? As i can see you more experienced with this app. Any Help would be really appreciate
@@RajBarat making videos for RUclips, I think I can do almost anything with LumaFusion. Masking and speed ramping are easier on a PC, but I know speed ramping is coming to LumaFusion later this year. Probably one of the biggest limitations of LumaFusion is if you need more than 6 tracks of video and audio. Most of my videos don’t need that, so I prefer to just edit in LumaFusion.
@@JoshuaTimothy Thanks again . This would be really helpful .
This is a helpful video. I have one question though. Pardon my ignorance. I notice that many RUclipsrs are excited about editing off external drives in the latest Lumafusion update. How do you get footage onto your external drive? I have to put footage onto my ssd from Lumafusion. That much I get. Are you hooking up your drives directly to your cameras? I don’t understand how to get footage onto my ssd unless I transfer it over from Lumafusion. Do you do this then remove it all from Lumafusion to save space? Then I can see why but it seems to be an extra step. Care to comment?
I think you can connect a dongle with multiple inputs to your iPad which lets you connect a card reader and your external drive at the same time. I believe you can then transfer files from the sd card to the external drive.
It’s probably easier to use the Files app to transfer files than LumaFusion. But to answer your question, a lot of people have a USB C dock which allows you to connect multiple devices like a ssd, sd card, or camera at the same time. Then you can drag the files over from your camera’s sd card to the ssd. Or you can use another computer to transfer all your files to the ssd before your start editing on the iPad.
What is that Audio? Is that just raw iPhone mic?
No I’m using the Blue Yeti microphone
Hi I'm planning to purchase LumaFusion. However, I only have a iPad 8th Gen, 128 GB. Do you think this app will work okay with my current iPad? I'm still saving for the pro.Imma use the app for school editing and random short films. I have a macbook and iPhone so I'm not really worried about transferring files. I'm torn between VLLO and LumaFusion. This Lumafusion just have a lot features I'm interested in, but I'm not sure if this will work fine with my current iPad.
Yes LumaFusion is compatible with the iPad 8th gen and will work great. I started editing in LumaFusion on my iPhone 12, and then the iPad Air. The iPad Air is a great device for editing with that A14 processor, it’s almost as fast as the iPad Pro if you want to save some money.
@@JoshuaTimothy
I just bought the LumaFusion. Thank you for the advice. And yes, I’m considering the recent iPad Air. Subscribed to your Channel just right now.
@@AbiKim16 thanks for the support. Good luck with the editing. More tutorials will be coming soon.
May i know lumafusion 1 time purchase only??? 😀
Yes LumaFusion is a one time purchase. They will have additional feature packs to buy in the future if you want, but the core features of LumaFusion will always be a one time purchase.
@@JoshuaTimothy thank u bro
Hey brother,
Is there any difference in the video quality after rendering from premiere Pro on macbook and rendering from luma fusion on iPad.
Video configuration like fps, bit rate everything is same.
Tell me.।।
There shouldn’t be any difference in quality if you keep the same setting. LumaFusion now even supports Apple ProRes which is very high quality.
@@JoshuaTimothy thanks brother
I bought a hub to access all my videos off all my hard drives using Luma Fusion on my new 2021 iPad Pro. So far all that shows up is some of the folders containing the videos but not the actual videos. I am wondering if this can only be done using solid state hard drives.
It might be the adapter or the formatted file system of your hard drive, I’m not sure. I just tried it with the Hyper Drive USB C hub that I use and my external HDD and it worked good in LumaFusion. In my newest video, there is a link in the description to the Hyper Drive USB C Hub that I use.
@@JoshuaTimothy - I can access the videos on the hard drives on my PC using Video Studio. I can’t see why Luma Fusion can’t except the same formats. It could be the nice hub I bought isn’t allowing these videos through for some strange reason.
I will now look to the hub you have tried tested and recommend.
I don’t mind editing on my PC laptop but it’s becoming way more convenient to use the iPad for editing.
@@paullaviolette2610 hard drives can have different file system formats which sometimes are not compatible with apple. If that’s the case you can always reformat the drive to a compatible format.
Thanks man I edit off my phone and I don’t have enough storage for that 4K quality and my computer just broke so LumaFusion and a external hard drive is goin to be the move for a little bjt
I’m not sure editing off the ssd will work on a phone. I’m pretty sure LumaFusion requires that the device has a USB C port. The Lightning port is not fast enough for editing. You can however, connect your ssd to your phone using the lightning to USB adapter and then temporarily transfer the footage over to your phone until you are finished with your edit.
@@JoshuaTimothy what iPad would you recommend bro?
@@ArcosGonzalez the iPad Air 4 is perfect for Video editing especially if you want to save a little money compared to the Pro. It can tackle anything you throw at it. Just make sure you get the 256Gb version.
@@JoshuaTimothy thank you !
How about a lightning port?
This only works with devices that have a usb c port. Lighting ports data transfer rates are too slow.
Your video makes me want to use Luma Fusion for my video editing huhu. Currently Im using Filmora X
It really is the best out there! Definitely try it out. Thanks for watching.
Hey Joshua, thanks for your nice video :) Do you know if one can edit only from SSD or also from a SD card. connected with a adapter?
Good question, I just tested it, and it worked. I was able to edit a small test video of 1080p and 4K footage right of the sd card with my USB C adapter. Everything felt a bit slower, but it wasn’t a horrible experience.
@@JoshuaTimothy Thanks for your response!
@@JoshuaTimothy I also tested it on my side but the footage wasn't smooth. Which reading speed does your sd card offer? Thanks for your help!
Nice video.... not sure if it was an irony or just sensitivity blow out.... 5:45 kind of hollow an tinny sounding, ironic given you are talking about audio quality 😆. Other than that awesome info man! getting started in the drone and editing thing myself!
What ipad you are using
I’m using the iPad Air 4.
Hey I was editing a video and my media looks like it’s missing I guess but it’s on my iPad why does it show like that ? Do I have to start all over ?
Does this also work with an hdd?
A lot of portable hard drives require too much power or are too slow to edit smoothly, but it could work if you can connect the hard drive via USB C. I haven’t tested it yet, but I did try with a SD card and it allowed me to edit off of that. It was quite a bit slower though.
I just tried connecting my hard drive to my USB C hub and everything works great editing in LumaFusion. So yes, if you hard drive gets enough power and is fast enough, you can definitely edit off of it.
Dude thank you SO much for taking the time to test it out. Appreciate so much!
Instead of an ssd can a hard drive be used instead
Yes it will work if you have the right adapter. The only thing to worry about is speed, and if the drive you use receives sufficient power, that’s why they only recommend SSDs.
Hello sir, Is your Ipad running on Ipados 15? Or 14?
iPad OS 14.
Is this still good on my ipad 5th gen ?
It’s probably fine for editing 1080p video. I don’t have one to test how good it would handle 4K. Let me know how your editing experience goes if you start editing on your iPad.
Hello, and a big thumbs up for this very informative video ! I would like to take this opportunity to ask you a question : in your opinion, is it possible to transfer Canon C-Log3 files from a Canon EOS R6 body to a latest generation iPad Pro 12.9 (M1) via a USB-C cable ? I just tried and obviously it does not work ... Is it then possible to transfer these files via an SD card reader ? Thank you so much !
That’s interesting, it must be how Canon implements their file system. I can connect my Sony A7SIII via USB C and it transfers everything over nicely in the files app. Yes an SD card reader or an SSD will work great.
@@JoshuaTimothy Ok Joshua, thank you very much for those informations ! I’ve tried USB-C cable on a demonstration iPad in a store without success ; I’m gonna try now with an SD card reader before buying the new iPad !!!! Thanks a lot, best regards. Vanessa
@@vivaldi06 you’ll have to let me know how it goes. Good luck!
How to get adobe after effect on iPad Pro?
It’s not possible to use after effects on an iPad.
wow i thought u had to import all your video and audio files into ipad to use editing software i thought u could't plug a external drive into i pad and run it from external drive well now i either wrong info or something, thats one reason why i went with the larger 512 internal-drive on my ipad pro 11 but i use alot of art and videos in my creations so 512 is fine for me but expensive
Yes this is a fairly new feature. It definitely changes the game for people that have a smaller storage device.
Is that a Lightning connector or only on later iPads? I can’t afford a new iPad but I could afford an SSD.
The lightning connector is not fast enough for editing off of, you’ll need USB-C. The iPad Air has a USB-C port and is a little cheaper than the Pro.
You forgot about ''stabilisation'' feature for shaky videos
It’s pretty cool, and I even recorded some test footage, but I didn’t have time to fit that part in. Thanks for watching Samuel!
My buddy told me lumafusion does not support editing my Sony a6600 video movie formats XAVC S / AVCHD and it's a sad day for me :{
but these videos are pretty cool mate... keep it up!
Oh bummer, is their any way for the Sony a6600 to record in XAVC-S mp4? I’ve been testing footage from various XAVC mp4 formats on the Sony A7sIII, and LumaFusion has been doing a good job. But ya their website says that iOS doesn’t support .mts files.
It is nice to be able to edits off the external SSD but getting files from SD card to the external SSD drive is pain in the butt. Plus I shoot video with my iphone 12 pro, it's hard to get files into the external SSD. Anyone have a better way without losing time. I don't use laptop or desktop. How do you get files from iphone to external SSD? SSD is USB-C and iphone is lightnigng. Airdrop from iphone to ipad pro is the easiest but what's the point of having SSD then?
The file management process on iOS and iPad OS needs a lot of improvement. I have transferred files from iPhone to my SSD with the Apple lightning to USB adapter, but air drop is faster than lightning. For SD cards you can use a hub like the Hyper Drive 6 in 1. You can plug in the SSD and the SD card at the same time. For those that have an iPad with limited storage an SSD would allow them to work on multiple projects at the same time without running out of storage.
@@JoshuaTimothy I have the USB-C HUB with 6 in 1, But still required me to transfer from the SD card to the SSD. So i just shoot in 1080p and edits off the SD card without transfer. It's faster but it's 1080p not 4K. SD card is slow only 130mb but it handled 1080p just find.
@@KaioshinAemi oh nice, that sounds like a decent work around. Hopefully Apple makes it easier for us in the future.
Much hype re: “working directly from an SSD”. And then I saw you cannot do this unless you have a built in USB-C port on your iPad, no dongle work around for Lightening Ports. Is this true?
Yes, the lightning port cannot transfer data fast enough to be able to edit directly off of a ssd. Sorry about that.
Who did your audio??
What do you mean? I recorded this audio on a Deity D4 Duo attached to my camera.
@@JoshuaTimothy edit it on Ferrite app on iPad to make it smooth.
What do you say that lumafusion can now hang with the big boys?
It definitely can for probably 80% of people’s workflows. Personally I prefer to edit in LumaFusion on an iPad than sitting at my computer using Premiere Pro.
Nice video thanks. I do not use LumaFusion yet. Why use LumaFusion when you use a keyboard and mouse, why not just do it on your computer with FCP or something? Thanks!
I spend my day at work editing on the computer, so I prefer to use LumaFusion to edit my own videos because I can relax on the couch and edit. I mainly use the Apple Pencil and touch when I edit.
@@JoshuaTimothy Hi Joshua, thanks for the reply. It is good to know that you value LumaFusion enough to do that. Best wishes.
for some reason, since i use a Galaxy s21 ultra there is nothing i can do to get the same good quality out of lumafusion as when i used my oneplus 7 pro and also my oneplus nord te record.
when directly uploading from the phone it's way better so the problem is not in the phone's camera... it's not broken or anything.
can you please tell me what the problem could be ?
Are you filming with the S21 and then editing on an iPad in LumaFusion?
@@JoshuaTimothy yes, but i did the same thing with my oneplus 7 pro and oneplus nord...
the quality did not drop at all with those phones
How are you getting the videos from the S21 to the iPad?
@@JoshuaTimothy i use a usb-a to usb-c adabter to transfer the videos on a usb stick and then just plug it in to my ipad
@@beautyneytiri a couple things to try, when you export your video, export to your camera roll or files app at a high quality, then try uploading to RUclips from a desktop computer. If you are uploading from the RUclips app, make sure you go into settings and make sure high quality upload is turned on.
Can please make a video on iPad air 4 showing lumafusion 3.0 video editing on external ssd. If possible to use external ssd in lumafusion video editing on iPad Air 4 like we can do in iPad Pro m1???
This entire video and demonstration was edited on the iPad Air 4, it works great with an ssd.
2:15 How can you say there is no lag and it is running smoothly just as it lags and stutters? That’s like declaring a riot with flames in the background to be a mostly-peaceful protest. Am I missing something or is there some reason I shouldn’t trust my eyes but instead trust your words? And no, I’m not hating. I just bought an 12.9 M1 and would like to believe that I can do serious editing on it.
That was me scrolling through my footage with my finger and pausing. There was no lag in that video. That said, after I made that particular video I have found some stock footage during additional testing that did lag when I sped it up 400x. You can do some serious editing on it and 90% of video clips won’t lag.
@@JoshuaTimothy thanks for the follow-up and a great video.
Feels like I’m staring at a cat
what
Was that 22 seconds or 22 minutes for a three second video lol
Very disappointed LF still just 6 video tracks.
Nesting would be a cool feature!
Joshua, it would have been so much better if you had shown EXACTLY what and where the Resize UI icon is. You know, like ZOOMING IN TO THE SCREEN so we can actually SEE IT, and not just tapping in some vague location while saying “this icon!” I spent way too long tapping the little checkerboard icon in that spot, getting frustrated and thinking something was wrong with my iPad. You also could have said “the icon that looks like an upside-down “T”. That would have been REALLY USEFUL!
Thanks for the feedback.
How can Android tablets compete whit this
That’s why I had to switch from android to Apple. As a video editor, the software available on the iPad and iPhone makes desktop work possible on any device you carry with you.
get rid of the bright lights, your look psychotic
Still poor video editor . This apps still not doing a great job. Better than nothing but......

It looks far too comfy for working on an ipad…wonder when apple will block it 😂😂😂
