I'm 100% in agreement with you; it's difficult to switch from DaVinci for those reasons you mentioned. Editing in FCPX feels organic and allows you to focus more on creativity. But seeing how these programs are evolving, it seems like we might have to start getting used to a future change if Apple doesn't do anything about it.
the timeline on resolve is frustrating to say the last but the color grading process is off the charts , I edit in Final Cut and color grade in resolve
@@LaurenceLee I know there are a few methods , I used to just export a very BIG 422 pro res export to desktop then start project in resolve and import media where it had titles and transitions with it . What I did was put on a color simple grade in Final Cut Pro with one of the phantom luts because I have to cut up clips with a grade on them and not in log profile , but once I think I’m done I disable the color grade and export back in its raw log profile so I can finish color process in resolve … I will say I do Noise reduction and optical flow things too in resolve .. my issue is once I start color grading in resolve I start coming up with new ideas and then have to use the timeline to resolve to cut up clips and I get very frustrated lol especially since all my clips I use for the project are in Final Cut , me no likely that timeline hahaha… but the new film emulation is tons of fun to play with !! For the first time I’m doing the method of exporting an XML file so we’ll see how that goes , I just started yesterday , and not really sure how that physically works , I’ll have a project on my desktop called the xml file that I imported into resolve but I have to have the ssd connected that the xml file came from Final Cut , and it doesn’t have titles and transitions , some things are missing so I don’t really like going back and forth from Final Cut to resolve back to Final Cut , but I know some people do that , I don’t know , I really wish I could just do one or other editing programs
I completely switched from FCP to DR about 2 months ago and I love Resolve for the color grading, fusion and audio editing, but I miss the ease of editing with the magnetic timeline. If Apple improves the color grading workflow, masks/tracking, I might switch back to it just because I love the magnetic timeline so much..
I had a similar experience with the sifting through the footage when I first started using Davinci, but then I started using the speed editor keyboard in the cut page to go through footage and it changed everything. I'm able to do the selection of clips much faster than FCPX now with Davinci.
Hi I actually looking for more content from you! You can make videos about the BTS of your shoots, Inspirations for create films, Editing Process.... lot of things you can make! Can't wait to see from you!
I am on a journey from final cut to resolve. I use the magnetic timeline but the cut page in resolve is the same. You put in this big gray bar and edit over it. So your not even using Final Cut to its full speed and switching to resolve for you should be the same. Most of what you are saying with Final Cut is in resolve .id suggest learning keyboard shortcuts and I’d also suggest looking at the black magic speed editor which is truly amazing. I’m on Final Cut since day one of release and only the last 3 weeks learning resolve from ripple training and it’s been very exciting
Also if I find DaVinci so sexy I still have not enough need from what is offering… the grading I still can do it there, but still, for my need fc is home 😊
Great balanced talk on this subject, thank you!. I use FCP for all my short form films and commercials, but for long form documentaries I use RESOLVE. Amazing wedding films, inspirational work.
You just read my mind. I am cutting my first video in davinci and thought I am doing something wrong in selecting my clips… and here you tell us that you have the same issue. Even Final Cut is not updating anymore, the selecting feature and workflow is nice and fast. I think about doing the next project in both programs. What is your hack to link Sony video footage when importing the xml of Final Cut to davinci?
Thank you for sharing your views on these tools so sincerely and respectfully. I specialize in Premiere, Final and Davinci. I have the technical knowledge to evaluate but without a doubt the exchange of experience of how things work for each person is of great value
Oi Fasoli! Obrigado por essa conversa sincera. O Premier foi o meu primeiro software de edição de videos, em 2019 inspirado por seu trabalho, passei a usar o FinalCut. Isso foi divisor de aguas em meu Workflow, pois ganhei uma agilidade e velocidade incrível na montagem e coloração dos videos. Também amo colorir com DaVinci e tenho cada vez mais usado o software. Seu trabalho nos inspira aqui no Brasil, continuei fazendo mais conteúdos aqui no RUclips!
I just switched to Resolve to avoid paying hundreds for plugins so Final Cut could do what I needed. Editing is more than just editing hahah, all the audio and special effects and such I’ve needed for this long short film I’m doing. The text transcription helped in finding lines as well. I’m on 18.6. I’m now as fast in Resolve as I was in FCP.
Thanks for the great video and inspiration! You are an incredible and bright person! My wife and I moved to Germany because of the war in Ukraine, we work now in a creative agency but we want to develop our wedding business further in the future and we thank you for your inspiration, it gave me strength
Great video! Davinci annoys me for exactly the same reasons. Video editing increases over time. In Final Cut you don't even think about it, you're just creative and that's it). You can edit video in Final Cut with your eyes closed. In Davinci, just rearranging clips between each other takes time. For wedding videos, Final Cut is the best of the best!
I switched to davinci from fcpx +color finale from 2 month ago. I still can’t decide which program to use. I just found that final cut is so user friendly. You can do effects, masking in a so rational way. However it’s capibilitys are restricted. Davinci’s knowledge is superb, but it is so hard to do simple tricks with it and it missing a lot of effects that final cut has bulit in. Davinci has also a lot of bugs. So it is hard to decide.
Cool video. You mentioned a movie which edited with fcp 7. The thing is fcp7 does not have magnetic timeline and all the things that you love about fcpx it is non existent in fcp7. Fcp7 was like premiere or resolve at the editing department. So there were tracks. I started my editing journey with fcpx as well. But buying all those plugins and fixing them with every update or working on a video for ours and at the end not being able to export because of rendering issue caused by 3rd party plug in and diagnosing where the problem is... I love final cut but love must be both ways. It is a dying relationship for me. 🙂
I love Final Cut but you are right they are falling behind. I actually purchased davinci resolve studio a few weeks back. I plan to use both but try to learn davinci.
great video. I'm in the same boat. I get why everyone is switching from Premier to Davinci, especially if some of those users use Windows, so Final Cut is out of the question anyway. However, to go from Final Cut to Davinci, you don't have as many reasons to switch, especially if you're very happy with everything. Yes, no doubt Davinci has many more features, especially the Colour Grading, and yes I wish Final Cut would be more active with their updates. but I don't edit super complex projects, so in my eyes, it's not really worth trading the ease of use of Final Cut, the simplicity, for the complexity of Davinci Resolve, which has lots of features that I might not use. But same as you, I keep an eye on both, I have already paid for both - but currently I'm sticking with Final Cut.
I think the same with you Riccardo. Davinci is a very nice software but for me fcp is also a comfortable and excellent software. what is offered more at da vinci is not used all the time
I Think that Finalcut is the best, I switching from Premiere to Davinci 7 years old, but I think that Final Cut is the final choice, sooner or later I'll make the switch to Final, great Riccardo is so much wonderfull hear you talk
Ciao Maestro! Final cut come tutte le app, le funzionalità ed i programmi creati per apple/Mac, sono programmi dove tutto è preconfezionato in maniera tale da far applicare l'utente il meno possibile nel creare cose. Poi ci sono i programmi seri come RESOLVE, imbattibile su tutto! Ma c'è da lavorare. Opinione personale ovviamente. Ma è uno switch a mio avviso da fare a tutti costi. Sei il top! ti seguo sempre!
Thanks for this insight. Would really be interested in your new wedding approach! Maybe you can make a live stream once so you can interact with us too :)
non sarà facile FCP passare a DVR, quest'ultimo è, passami il termine, molto meccanico, la timeline è u disastro, non si avvicina per niente agli automatismi di FCP
Lots of Um, ah and non-native English expressions make it very frustrating to follow this video to the end. I understand Final Cut Pro has some features that are useful to you but they don't exist in Davinci Resolve. Yes, every app has its own advantages and disadvantages. People stick to a specific app because it helps them solve their problems and how much it costs. Thanks for your opinion
oh man so sorry about my English and way to talk in the video. I would love to talk only in Italian but I feel a lot of people who is following me has pleasure to hear me also with that bad English. I am working on improving that
Honestly, I prefer following a “non-native” English but genuine, down to earth and so capable guy till the end rather than 99% of “native” English here on YT that they have no idea about what they are talking about! Thanks for your opinion

If you want to mimic the magnetic timeline on final cut on resolve then just do ctrl and shift while moving the clips to swap them around

If Apple improves the color grading workflow, masks/tracking, I might switch back to it just because I love the magnetic timeline so much..
I used the covid time to change from Premiere to Davinci. It was so easy change for me. I keept the same workflow.

Amazing as usual ✨✨😀 I really wanna know how do you import a full film timeline from fcpx to davinci without any problems 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Finally someone who's praising Final Cut Pro. Cheers to all FCP editors 🥂

What is your hack to link Sony video footage when importing the xml of Final Cut to davinci?
For bringing the xml from fc to DaVinci you should import the project first in toolbox (is a free app)
@@RiccardoFasoli Hey, I can not find the correct app called toolbox. There are so many but none of it does, what it should do ;)
I use both FCP and DR. My simple projects and social media are cut on FCP and my more complex projects are created in Resolve.
Thank you for sharing your views on these tools so sincerely and respectfully. I specialize in Premiere, Final and Davinci. I have the technical knowledge to evaluate but without a doubt the exchange of experience of how things work for each person is of great value
I moved from Premiere Pro to Davinci 2 years ago and the changes is remarkable
Oh yessss for premiere usesrs that timeline is familiar and the rest is only improving

Yes I know that fc7 has no magnetic timeline. My example was to talk about this hoping for updates when beautiful stuff can be edit everywhere
