A Apple revealed today Final Cut Pro 11 for macOSas well as powerful updates to the Final Cut Pro para iPad and the Final Cut Camera.
Offering new tools, Final Cut Pro 11 also supports importing and editing space video (which can be recorded with iPhones 15 Pro/15 Pro Max, iPhones 16 and with the new Canon lens) directly to the Apple Vision Proallowing editors to import their footage and add effects, make color corrections, and enhance their projects. The depth position of titles and captured footage can also be adjusted during the editing process.
In terms of artificial intelligence, in Final Cut Pro 11 editors can access two entirely new tools: Magnetic Mask (Magnetic Mask) and the Transcript for Subtitles (Transcribe to Captions).
With the former, you can easily isolate people and objects in a video clip without the need for a green screen, providing additional flexibility to customize backgrounds and environments. Editors can also combine the function with color correction and video effects, allowing them to precisely control and style each project.

The second, in turn, automatically generates subtitles from spoken audio in the timeline, with a powerful AI language model — created by Apple, which transcribes spoken audio — made to be fast and accurate (this, however, requires a Mac with Apple Silicon and macOS Sequoia or later).

Additionally, Apple also recalled other features that were already present in Final Cut Pro related to advanced editing to help further simplify creative workflows and save time:
- Magnetic timeline: Provides a fluid way to cut and edit a project. Editors can seamlessly add and rearrange clips, making adjustments while keeping video and audio perfectly in sync.
- Multi-camera editing: Users can instantly sync multiple angles of a project and switch between shots during playback. New keyboard shortcut options let you adjust the timeline view and reposition clips.
