I hope for the next update they would consider to improve some other aspects such as masking, a better color grading and color management options with for customizable and more natural results, a better noise reduction, gyro data for stabilization... and a hopefully reduce the amount of memory required for retiming options and rendering clips, so far filling hard drives with several hundred of Gb of rendered files is the norm to me (and deleting them creates a lot of headaches when exporting).

You will probably laugh, but I am currently using a 2015 macbook air to edit. LOL! it is an exercise in patience.... I do 20-30 seconds of edit, compound it and then join that to a few more like that, then once put them all in the same project... go to bed while it renders and most time wake up in the morning and it is ready (with a fan blowing on the computer all night). Though I can only watch a 1080 video on quick time on that machine so no 4k stuff output (can only view 4K in 12.5% proxy in project) I do NOT recommend it, but hey, we do what we have to do. Just ordered a m1max 32 GB and 1TB off ebay... I will let you know how different it is. I am currently doing some of the motion courses on your website, and I had to laugh as I could not render the projects (LOL!) Thank you for your videos, explainers and everything else.

The new slo-mo feature is welcome... a definite improvement. I still see lots of artifacts, but far fewer than before. I hope it improves even more! The other new features are amazing as well. EDIT: Ooops, step-scrubbing through audio no longer works with the arrow keys. This is a huge bug for people who find audio precision important. Sometimes it will work but it's fleeting.

Great video! :) BTW, somehow I still never use Roles in FCP... to me it's a little confusing and I never quite grokked the benefit. Might be a future video worth making...? Especially when using Multicam Clips... which I religiously use now whether I need them or not 😄

7:28 I usually apply a LUT in the inspector, because this is the only way to have it applied within your browser too, so I don’t have to look at log all the time and guess what they will look like once graded. But the issue with this is that the LUT applied there is applied BEFORE any grade… So it is actually effectively reducing the dynamic range :/ So when comes the time for grading, I am removing the LUT in the inspector to re-apply the same lut as an effect, individually… Which takes forever ! I don’t understand why Apple is not applying this AFTER the effects 🤷🏽‍♂ Or even better, make it applies a Custom LupUT effective to the clip natively, the same way the now enhance light and color works 🤔

Steve and Mark, why normalize clips before going for the "look?" Why not just go for the look? If you normalize and then do your look, and then change your mind about anything, you still have 3 or fo4ur or 5 effects that are going to have to be adjusted individually.

@markspencer1203

29 күн бұрын

The whole idea behind normalizing is to get all your clips into roughly the same dynamic range and color balance so that once you apply a look you can do so with an adjustment layer to all your clips at once and it will be applied uniformly - if you don't normalize you'll have a heck of a time matching your shots.

@@rippleguys Unfortunately, yes. 100%. they’ve given up. And let me be clear, my gripe isn’t with you guys, your video or your channel- I enjoy Ripple Training’s content- this just happened to be the first place I’ve seen the new version announced/explored (since again, Apple has decide FCP isn’t important enough to get even a mention in any of their keynotes/conferences while simultaneously featuring Resolve in their press material) and so it’s your comment section that received my gut reaction. Sorry. Major upgrades are supposed to add new features. Minor updates fix old ones. Besides Live Multicam, everything here essentially already existed in FCP. FCP for iPad 1. iPad Pro M4 enabled faster rendering and more streams. (Disingenuous as this is a feature of the M4 chip and not a new feature of FCP. Everything is faster on an M4) 2. Live Multicam. (Cool although I don’t know any professional productions shooting on iPad. Also, does it work on the Mac version?) 3. Being able to start and open projects on external storage. (This one is obvious and should have been in the original release of FCP for iPad considering the iPad had harddrive functionality years ago) 4. Apple Pencil Pro “barrel roll” for “live drawing” and “squeeze” to change brushes and settings. (more an Apple Pencil feature than FCP) FCP for Mac 1. Enhance Light and Color (I know they are using the buzz term AI here but it’s really taking a feature that already existed in FCP- “Balance Color”- and making it better. Appreciated but not exactly new.) 2. Smooth Slo-Mo (Absolutely welcomed but it’s making optical flow… better. Is that really new?) 3. Color and effect naming (This could almost be considered a bug fix. Premiere had this feature 10 years ago and people have been begging Apple for it for years.) 4. Search missing media and effects in Timeline Index (A genuine, solid feature. But really speaks more to the innovativeness of the Timeline Index rather than it’s increased functionality) 5. Expanded metadata search in the Timeline Index. (An obvious functionality update to an existing feature. Hardly game changing). It’s hard to imagine anyone jumping ship from Resolve, Premiere or Avid for any of these “new” features. And I know you guys have a relationship with Apple but can you honestly look at this list and think “next level”? A lackluster, minor update in a string of lackluster, minor updates for FCP. I’m starting to believe the Final Cut division at Apple is just one guy. And he’s part time. And leaves early. But only after a solid, long nap. Cheers and continued success to you guys at Ripple Training. I only hope Apple finds the drive it once had to make FCP an innovator for pro editors again.

@@genericuser7319 I mean you are not wrong, but I still have hope. At least they made an Update and in the last 12 months their were several slightly bigger updates(10.6.6, 10.7 and now 10.8) with several small but noticeable feature upgrades. They also said they have plans for Final Cut for 5-6 years. And they also just made a Camera App called Final Cut. Also they spoke at the Keynote that there will be a feature upgrade in the coming Autumn. All this shows that they support Final Cut. I think the problem is that they tried to save the iPad with Logic Pro and Final Cut which probably wont work. But for the last 1-2 years they had to built this iPad Version as well which slowed probably down the development. Looking at Logic they have now feature parity with the iPad and Desktop Version. Probably the try the same with Final Cut? If so then the development will become a lot faster in the future again. Also it make sense that they have no major new AI Features like Text Based Editing in it, because this will probably come when Apple Intelligence is out big time. But I understand you, I am also dissapointed in the features. Where is a better Keyframe Editor, where is some useable Final Cut to Logic Pro Workflow, where is better Color Correction(they should make it at least like Color Finale on Steroids) and where are some awesome new Apple Motion updates? I miss a lot, but still its the best editing programm. But if you need to do all in one DaVinvi is better and it doesnt need so many expensive external plugins. I use plugins for several hundreds of Dollars and its annoying. But still the editing is the most fun in Final Cut. It lets me be more creative and its faster. It just needs one major upgrade with several big updates and its up there again.
