What’s new in Final Cut Pro 10.0.3
Final Cut Pro 10.0.3 includes major new features and enhancements, detailed below.
Multicam editing
You can now use multicam clips to edit footage from multicamera shoots or other synced footage in real time. Working with multicam clips in Final Cut Pro is a flexible and fluid process. While the active angle plays in the viewer, you can also view all angles playing simultaneously in the angle viewer and easily cut and switch between them. You can create multicam clips from diverse media sources and modify existing multicam clips during the editing process.
For more information, see Intro to multicam editing in Final Cut Pro.
A/V output
You can now connect your Mac to an external video monitor for audio and video (A/V) output. In addition to showing how video and audio look and sound on an NTSC/PAL or HD broadcast monitor, this allows you to test output with more sophisticated devices such as vectorscopes and waveform monitors.
A/V output is available only with OS X Lion 10.7.2 or later and requires compatible third-party video interface hardware and software. FireWire DV devices are not supported. For more information, contact the device manufacturer or go to the Final Cut Pro X Resources webpage.
For more information, see Play media on an external display in Final Cut Pro.
Manual relinking of clips to media files
Now you can manually relink event clips and project clips to media files. Manual relinking gives you more control over your post-production workflow.
For more information, see Relink clips to media files in Final Cut Pro.
Other notable features
Layered graphics files, such as Adobe Photoshop (PSD) files, can now be edited so that each layer appears as a connected clip in the timeline. See Edit layered graphics files.
Advanced Keyer controls are now available. See Use chroma keys in Final Cut Pro.
Keyframing controls are improved in the Video and Audio Animation editors. See Intro to video keyframing in Final Cut Pro.
