I saw other youtubers talking about final cut pro in the iPad but never saw someone being as logical and detailed as you are.
again, amazing video!!!! thank you!
Great first look at Final Cut Pro for the iPad. It has a lot going for it, I really like the look of the interface. Thanks for sharing.
Holy detailed tutorial, bro!
Thanks a lot, Dylan, for outlining problematic parts as well. For me, personally, I plan to use it for making shorts video on the road and pre-prepare some of the timelines for the long videos, while still on the vacation/trip... Assuming to transfer and finish them on the desktop.
Not being able to use external drives is a big issue currently. They will probably add it, but there really has to be a solution for charging at the same time.
Thanks, bro!
Great review, thanks Dylan. (Banger video idea: CapCut vs. FCP on iPad. I wonder if CapCut is actually more powerful...)
That cut and trim start/end workflow is how I edit everything. Most efficient way to do it by far. I just have the Option+Bracket shortcut mapped on a macro pad so I only have to press one button to do it.
Yes! I set it to F and G so I never have to move my left hand from the keyboard.
Thanks for the break down Dylan! This is a really great case to see what Apple will be doing next with this program. Too many people are writing this program off too quick because of the ugly. Also nice to see your puppy’s cameo @ 7:55 😉
I am quite excited about FCP for iPad even though the current version has too many limitations to make sense in my personal workflow. I will therefore not get it but I will be monitoring its development has I am convinced that Apple will work it all out over time. There is no doubt in my mind that at some point in the future I will be using FCP on an iPad, just not yet. Thanks for the video.
Thanks and great review Dylan! My hopes were hight that this was going to be amazing out of the gate but it looks like the jury's still out.
Thanks for this excellent, detailed review. I confess my casual interest in FCP on iPad evaporated pretty much when I heard about the inability to work with media on external SSD (I like to have up to 10 projects in the go at any one time, and that’s no issue whatsoever in Lumafusion, for instance). But when I see all the other negatives, we’ll that’s where my interest ends. Why anyone would pay this considerable subscription for an app that does almost nothing better than its competition (at a once-off price) is beyond me. Thanks for saving me the time!
Hello. I have discovered a small bug. If I import a clip that has sound and I expand it I can't erase the sound or even separate them completely. Am I doing something wrong? Thx for the great video.
Very well balanced review. Nice Job!! Another feature that I miss is no Voice Over capability. I did not realize this until after I finished editing a travel video and then could not add voice over. So, I thought I would record to my voice narration directly on the iPad using my DJI Mic - but it also does not work on the iPad so I am now looking for a solution. Maybe I’ll just sent to desktop (M1 Pro)version (defeating the whole purpose) or re- edit the video in LumaFusion that does have voice over. Any suggestions out there?
Nice and honest look at FCP on iPad 👍 Just as I expected, not really pro… but… I could see myself cutting up my A- and B-roll on the couch (or anywhere) and then transfer it to the Mac for the “real” edit 🤔
Hi Dylan, very helpful review. Do you know how to set individual audio keyframes? Any idea how expert video plus individual audio tracks? Easy in fcp for Mac…. Regards Philipp
No compound clips? What a massive oversight. I cant work without them.
Thanks!
Thank you so much Jan!
Dylan, least I can do. I don’t have b-roll or other video clips to use in my videos. I have to work with my book covers, books in iPad or iPhone, and images of my models. Your templates and your many tips and tricks help me to make my videos a LOT more vibrant and exciting. I owe you, buddy. I did purchase FCP for my iPad Pro. Hoping they improve it and especially give us the ability to import FROM FCP to iPad. 🤞
Yeah… I edited a video on my 2020 iPad Pro using davinci and it was smooth. Don’t know why they limited FCP for only m1 models. 😢
i would love for apple motion to be on ipad!
Yeah..not having the compound clip feature sucks. That's the one thing I use all the time.
You have pointed out what I have been saying to all the other RUclipsrs about this - this is not a Mobile version of Final Cut in that you can not round trip. Without this what is the point? Who is the user case for this? Needing an m1 iPad with a 1tb drive immediately excludes the argument of beginners and people who can’t afford a mac. The cheapest way to get into Final Cut is to get actual Final Cut!
Hi Dylan , just one side Q: how long on average does it take you to edit a 10 minute video? and or how long did it take you to compile all your media / apply effects / and all the bells and wistles to edit this video? Only asking as I feel my long form videos are taking a couple of days to complete. "mind you I'm a perfectionist, so even the "tracking" on a type effects needs to be just right". lol...thanks for the feedback and YES THANK you for this review. I'll be getting it just to try out the rotto scoping. Thanks
The big question though Dylan, which is best; Final Cut Pro for iPad or LumaFusion? I’m tempted with the latter as there is so much more you can do and have lifetime access with one payment fee. I created one of my most popular videos with LumaFusion (before I got a MacBook and bought FCP) and it is a great piece of software. 😅
No contest revisit FCP on iPad in a year maybe
Is it possible to import my apple motion templates (generators, titles and effects) into FCP for iPad? I really use A LOT Apple Motion for my projects and the possibility to create something in apple motion and import into a FCP iPad version can be a dealbreaker for me.
Just downloaded the new update my plugins for pixel film studios Is not working how would I be able to fix that thanks Dylan
Thanks Dylan! Great job! I'm super bummed we got like...NONE of these features in the desktop version (10.6.6).
A lot of these features did come to the desktop version! There is the scene removal mask, new titles and backgrounds, and several other things they added. Which feature were you hoping they would bring?
My question is for free can you basically accomplish quick videos from iMovie on iPad?
I’d never consider using or paying monthly for this app when I paid once for it years ago (also own Motion & Compressor)! Screen too small, projects & media I work with are always saved to external drive, not to mention all the third party plugins I have purchased over the years… I mean what a waste, since when is traveling with a MacBook Pro an issue?!
Just curious... Is it possible to create a timelapse (from photos) with the iPad version of Final Cut Pro?
Great question! In my experience, I don't think so. I mean technically you could drop in all your photos and make each one 1 frame, but that would be way more work than using a dedicated app. That would be a really nice feature!
they should hire you in R&D
My favorite part of the review was the hidden dog at 7:42. lol
For anyone who doesn't already own an M2 iPad, the cost of entry is huge when you add the h/w purchase. Even worse if you have an iPad Pro, but with too little storage!
Hey my man Dylan, great video as always!
I downloaded FCP on my 12.9 inch iPad Pro. I imported pics and video from a recent vacation and edited it together. I would like to export the finished video project to my iPhone and MacBook Air but can't figure out how to do that. What's the secret ......
Thanks, Dylan, but I have to say that the look on your face in your thumbnail tells me all I need to know about iPad and FCPro. 😁
Thank you! Is it me or the color grading is different. Is it a render difference or a manual correction done differently?
The color grading in this video is significantly different than my usual look, due to not having curves and HSL selection tools. But the export looks exactly as it did on the iPad!
Got It ! That makes sense. Thank you
When is the MAC version 10.6.6 coming out with all the new features
It’s out now! Try restarting your computer and see if it shows up in the App Store after that
@@TheFinalCutBro can you please make make video on Mac version, what it is offering
@@SpartaEdits That's the intention!
Is there no speed ramping?
At this time, there is no speed ramping
from what i see in everyone's videos about it it's exactly like Lumafusion, but with some downgrades.
so why on earth is it more expensive than Lumafusion ???
Yes and so far Lumafusion is better. I wish they would have just bought Lumafusion
They need to add voice over
Why is the guide private now? I was just watching :(
Had some major issues with it! I’ll need to re-upload it unfortunately. I just wanted to get ahead before it got very many views. Sorry about that!
May I know,
Adobe After Effects
Adobe illustrator
Adobe photoshop
Adobe light room
What software should be used in apple mac instead?
May I know what software you are using?
Can you give me a description of how we can get the apple software that I have pointed out?
Apple Motion
Affinity Designer
Affinity Photo
Any photo editing app.
@@visualstudiosproductions thank you
Keyper plugin give is more best results in FCPX 10.6.6
I agree! I think future iterations from Apple will be amazing, but at this time, Keyper is king!
@@TheFinalCutBro thanks! young and energetic people like you should work in the FCPX team!
Seems it’s sole purpose is to sell $2000 iPads. A MacBook Air is a much better spend for editing on the go. I love FCP but on the iPad LumaFusion and now DaVinci is king. Both can export to FCP desktop and both can edit media on a remote drive. Thanks very much for your video.
The elephant in the room - how does it compare to LumaFusion???
Is it me or is scene removal kinda underwhelming (Mac)? Keyper seems better so far.
(i made a video about it myself, i'd love to know what you think of it)
now let me get 10.6.6. I know it's out but isn't showing up for me
If you restart your computer, then look up FCP on the App store, that's what worked for me!
@@TheFinalCutBro life saver
Hello do you have FCP in Discord?
I have a discord via my Patreon!
@@TheFinalCutBro Hello. I see discord text and doesn't show link.
No adjustment layers or compound clips makes it basically useless for serious editors in my opinion
IMO branding it as final cut was a bad idea from the start. Pros mostly won’t like it because of lack of functionality, and if they need to edit on the go, they probably have a MacBook Pro. My guess is that the market is for the new comer crowd, but they’re using FCP to give it more cred. I think they need to push more updates for the desktop version.
Hey Dylan thanks for the video. I think that your review is a little skewed and I would like to explain why.
Please know that there is no disrespect intended by this comment. My only goal is to present a different perspective. This is NOT meant as a negative review but rather a constructive critique of the video, its information, and the perspective that is presented regarding the application FCP for iPad.
First, you’re giving a review of a product that is literally the first version. Apple has a history of not running to do things but rather taking their time to do these things right.
Second, Apple has become an industry leader in making award winning content so I think that we should cut them some slack since it’s the first version.
Case and point they successfully made the most successful Sci-Fi novel series into an epic film so their defiantly not out of touch with film production but you have to remember that when they build tools their not JUST thinking about RUclipsrs. They have to think about the industry as a whole and the amount of strain their newest product will put on their devices. Final Draft is the industry standard and leader in Screenplay writing for TV Films and more, their mobile app for iPad does not have all of or even half of the features that the Mac app does because that just isn’t practical. It is mean to complement the other tools to provide continuity. Not replicate or replace them.
Next, you CANNOT compare your workflow on a Mac to the new application that is on the iPad. For starters the system resources and capabilities are wildly different. On top of that you have to remember that these are two different operating systems so the worlkflows will not be the same.
Also, your workflow is very dependent on Apple Motion which is not on the iPad yet and once again you can’t critique them for the very first release of a completely new application and workflow that they are deploying on their ecosystem it hasn’t been out long enough to even have it’s first major update.
They literally have consulted with the greatest filmmakers and content creators in the world to help supplement their main tools not replace them. They also have been paying attention to the companies that have been deploying NLE’s on iPad and now working to roll out a tool that is extremely stable.
Furthermore, most professionals that have had success have a team of people that help them when it comes to putting together content. I believe that it is unrealistic to expect a tool to be perfect and become the end all be all tool for everything. The fact is that most professionals either work with someone to handle audio or they use a service. I think that Apples addition of soundtracks is a great step but I also believe that the best use case for this feature right now is for the concepting phase or pre production phase to set a theme and a tone. I also believe that Apple is not trying to make this tool a replacement for Final Cut Pro on the Mac. I believe that the FCP for iPad app is aimed at a different use case and a different aspect of the video production workflow. As is, the first version of FCP for iPad is awesome because it gives you the ability to do a lot from the iPad and complete the process on the Mac. I believe that in time there will be more features that will come to the iPad app but this app is meant more as a companion to let you get some things done on the go.
Furthermore, DaVinci Resolve doesn’t offer even half of its features on the iPad app. Why? Because its not realistic or practical. As an app developer of applications for the Apple ecosystem with a focus on entertainment industry apps, I think it is very important that we keep the purpose of the tools in perspective. Otherwise the video becomes less educational and less informative. It would be wildly redundant and impractical for a film production to try and edit dailies or things like that on the iPad when they already have a more powerful device (MacBook Pro) with them. What makes more sense is to make the iPad app a great assistant that helps you get some of the basics done so that they can hand off the project to the Mac application to do more. Even for smaller content creators, this tool is great to serve as a starting point. If your focus Is the best possible quality for your viewers you want to do the majority of the heavy lifting on a more powerful machine. Like a Mac.
Fundamentally there is a great deal of machine learning that isn’t practical to implement in the iPad app because it would destroy your device resources. We have to remember that this isn’t a fixed media or basic data, this is video. One of the largest and most resource intensive mediums because it combines nearly all of the other creative mediums. It’s important to always look at where the tool fits in the pipeline/workflow because this tool was not developed to replicate or replace Final Cut Pro for Mac. It is an iPad. Not to mention that they priced it appropriately for what is is. A companion tool. I believe we need to keep this in mind when we evaluate tools like this. For example, The companion application for Logic Pro (Logic Pro for iPad) does not support third party VST or AU plugins. Why? Because the manuafacturers are not even developing their tools for the iPad becausee it is just not practical and would destroy system resources. On an iPad you are limited on storage space, performance, and peripherals so to compare what you can do on an iPad vs a Mac is wildly unrealistic, it also places the tools under scrutiny that it should not have.
We also must remember, ITS THE FIRST VERION. Ha ha ha. We need to keep that in perspective. Apple knows what they are doing. They have been making award winning tools that are super consistent for a very long time. And yes their tools may not be as insanely technical as other tools but the fact that they have been doing this while not compromising on being extremely environmentally friendly is something not only to take note of but also to respect. Not to mention they have also released a game changing new processor architecture over the last few years too so we should cut them some slack. They’re not trying to be DaVinci Resolve, and they’re definitely not trying to be Premiere pro (thankfully haha). They have always been themselves so lets let the tool grow in the wild. If Apple doesn’t improve it over the next few months then that’s something to be noted but with all of the negativity, wars, and pain that is being spread throughout the world right not let’s keep things more positive and constructive.
It literally was just released and I understand that you’re giving a review of their new app. But lets keep it in perspective and in the context of iPad applications. When you start trying to compare it to its flagship counterpart without taking into consideration the fact that they run on two completely different OS’s with different use cases in mind the video starts to depart from the excellence that you have always placed in your videos and dude you have a track record for making some super informative content. Sorry that this comment is so long. I felt that it was important to remember that this app is just a tool that is being introduced as another component in our video production pipelines. We shouldn’t place unrealistic expectations on a company for a tool that was just released and hasn’t even seen it’s first full year in the wild. Let’s give Apple some time to do what they do. I hope that you have a wonderful day and keep making amazing content as you always do Dylan. Thank you for all that you do. The tools are nothing if we don’t possess the skills of our craft. If RUclips went down, could you and would you still find a way to make content, tell great stories, and get it to the masses? Food for thought. Tools never can replace great skill and if you have the skills then a having access to machine learning or compound clips or premade soundtracks, or auto captioning won’’t matter. Because tools can easily fail but skills don’t. Be blessed.
….You didn’t mention NO stabilization
IMovie Pro at a push 😂
As a desktop FCP user, it makes zero sense to spend $1100 on an iPad vs $999 on a MacBook to use FCP. You cannot edit from an external drive. It’s not for big projects. This is more or less a fancy TikTok video maker.
It probably makes sense for the creator making $100’s of thousands a month and they’ll need quick turnaround. And for those that don’t make that much, the cost might be worth the risk.
"Adjustment layers" on Final Cut Pro on iPad:
1) create a solid background
2) drag it into the timeline
3) in the inspector change the blend mode to overlay
4) apply an effect such as colour adjustments
To temporarily disable the "adjustment layer": in the inspector, turn the opacity to zero.
Very dissapointing. If you can’t use external drives its useless unless you have 1tb of storage
I won’t be getting it just yet… the ugly is toooooo ugly… I do most things that you can’t do on the iPad
Can i load existing montage from Mac? What will happen if there are 3rd party plugins used, obviously it will not load em but when I put it back on Mac will they still be there?
The real ugly is no Voiceover tool… can’t use for News stories 😊
also you act like Lumafusion doesn't exist.
you seriously can do the exact same things with it.
AUTO CAPTIONS PLEASEEEEEEEE APPLEE . its 2023 !!!
It's so watered down! Can't even do compound clips??
lo scrivo nella mia lingua che mi fa fatica pure tradurlo.....final cut pro per iPad è una merda
It's laughably bad.
