I use davince resolve, but thinking about final cut as I use mac

I used Final Cut Pro studio in the day. And when they changed it to final cut pro 10 with magnetic timeline, I just couldn’t wrap my head around it. I have da Vinci resolve studio and love it because I’m used to that type of timeline. But I’m torn. Because I still want to learn Final Cut Pro. To my question what what is your criteria to use one or the other. Thanks.

Nice Video. I own a pc with an rtx4080 but i want so switch to apple. I play games here and there but its ok when Liftoff runs as my FPV sim. I dont need 3D rendering, i only need a good and stable davinci performance and the mobility. I tought my rtx is faster than an Apple chip but thats apparently not correct.

I can’t understand why FCP doesn’t have an easy fade at the beginning and end of a clip, like davinci and others where you grab the end of the clip and pull the opacity back as far as you need to. Or have I missed something?

FCP is "simpler"; not Faster than Davici. I used both for yearsI make feature films; not TH-cam short content though....

Have you considered making a video about opensource video editors like shotcut or kdenlive?

Are you broadcasting from a decrepit war bunker in Iraq? lmao

I started on FCP and migrated to Resolve about a year and a half ago. I think the best NLE in 2024 is the one that you enjoy using and makes sense to you. If you love Final Cut, great. If you love Resolve, great. If you love Premiere, stop throwing your money away, but great. I can only speak to my own experience, but the major reasons for my switch (I do mostly video podcasts, explainers, and promotional videos) are: 1. Resolve just has objectively better audio tools. Between its ability to easily send audio clips to an external DAW like Izotope RX and back and its built in noise and reverb reduction, to its more DAW-like Fairlight page that can open a lot (but still not all) of my audio plugins, it's a total no brainer here. 2. Fusion. Apple sells Motion as an equivalent software, but it is an extra cost, is an external program (meaning you have to render to send) and IMO far less capable than Fusion. The power of the nodes workflow is undeniable and it just has a lot more features and options for creating your own motion graphics, presets, titles, and transitions. 3. Color. I don't think I need to explain this one. Resolve's color tools are the clear winner. 4. Price. This is a big one for me and I wish I had realized it sooner. On the surface, they cost the same. $300. But in FCP, you'll find yourself constantly shopping for plugins. New titles, new transitions, new capabilities. While Resolve also has a 3rd party ecosystem, the hard pill for FCP users to swallow is that out of the box, Resolve has a lot of what you have to pay extra with FCP already built-in. 3D camera tracking, AI roto (solved for FCP finally), 3D workspace, etc. Resolve is just the cheaper option as well. I shudder at the hundreds, if not thousands of dollars I wasted on third party plugins that Resolve has native. 5. Lastly, Apple has made their priority clear here. FCP is an afterthought for them. They are a hardware company first and that is where their focus is. Final Cut has consistently lagged behind the other NLEs and has for years and years at this point. The fact that everyone is so excited about Magnetic Mask is a testament to that. Resolve has had this feature for literally 4 years already. FOUR YEARS. Even though Apple finally did a much-needed update with FCP11, it's still behind and will likely stay behind for the foreseeable future.

I don't want to be platform limited because of the software I choose to edit in. So Final Cut is out. Premiere needs a very expensive subscription, so obviously DR it is for me.

do I understand correctly ? I can download the stuff from lobo__films and use it for video editing?

Hey I purchasefd it after your video but ive got a problem.. When I try to animate some png out of my frame it crops it before it reaches the border of the video. Is it only working on full hd ? Do you know the solution?

When I see this, someone trying to compare this 2 and premiere, yo don't have a clue of the power of Resolve, 95% of the studio version its in the free one, the color page and fusion, its enough to have Davinci, where in FCP you have this two to work so easy, those 2 don't come close premiere and fcp. in the studio version of FCP, when they bought Final Touch, (color) soundtrack, the editing part, it was good then, just because they now made it easy to rotoscope, you thinks they're close, wait instill Blackmagic come out whit more update, and you have to wait on Apple a few years from now for update, you let me know. Resolve its the only way to go.

I just subscribed you fing dork lol

FCP 11......still a joke...... and I own FCP but I switched over too Resolve and I don't think I'm going back.

TH-camr and content creator over here! I'm sticking with FCP, but I would be lying if I said I didn't feel like I'm missing out on a better captioning tool and transcript editing. But slap that into FCP and some advanced color control and I'm a happy camper

In terms of the magic mask, I had this complicated scene where I was trying to mask out things inside a doorframe to make it look like you walked into a completely different scene. There were a bunch of random objects and different shading, so it would be hard for AI to figure out. Final Cut for me actually did a poor job. It wouldn't mask out exactly what I wanted. So I tried Davinci and the results were much better. So I think it really depends. I think for simple objects, maybe the Final Cut one would work better.

Wow, I actually have both and have been flip flopping between them as well. I use Davinci and I'm blown away with their noise isolation. Final Cut has it too, but it just doesn't have the same results. Then I go back to Final Cut and I'm like... damn, the ease of editing on this is great. There isn't a lot to think about and the media organization is just better. In the end, I tend to lean more towards Davinici just because I feel I achieve better results even though that ends up costing me more time.

FCP with a year subscription of MotionVFX's DesignStudio is all I need.

I'll definitely be trying FCP one day it really does look slick and amazingly geared towards QoL features, Davinci is my bread and butter though. As long as its not premiere I'm happy 😭🔥

L and J cuts are much easier than you think to do in resolve. Just hold option and select only audio or video and drag. And I hate magnetic timeline for some reason maybe it’s because I don’t think it’s precise.

I like your fight. Keep us updating. That’s important topic

man. Ive been between FCP and DR Free for the past year now after being a life long FCP user. I'd say I have a good understanding of DR now and gave it a true use. That being said, at the end of the day I just love how easily I can move and flow in FCP compared to DR. I feel like in DR when the project starts building up I have to think too much about what I'm doing in a track-based workflow. Moving video/audio up and down on the track? Then you have to worry about overwriting something or it just feels clunky at some points. I think the two huge differences are timeline navigation and color grading workflows. I love working in FCP but hate color grading in it so I'm either going to go all in on FCP or find a way to comfortably do everything in FCP and finish off grading in DR. I wanted to love DR so badly and have it be my only editor but man every time I go back to FCP its a breath of fresh air.

I think it depends on your priorities. If you need speed + advanced Motion Graphic Capabilities, FCP hands down. If you need things like text based editing, precision color, tracked based workflow and very simple mograph, go with Resolve. I'd say be versatile in both, but Resolve is super deep and a steep commitment if you're trying to learn both. If you enjoy torture, go Premiere Pro. That said, FCP has pulled ahead for me.

I can recommend an another combination, what I use right now for Social Media Content: FCP + CapCut is just a perfect couple ever 🫶🏼

ya know what would be a good video you can make. something along the lines "ALL the Plugins You NEED for Final Cut Pro" like I feel like it could be pretty useful tbh

I want to edit in Final Cut using the magnetic timeline but edit color wise in DaVinci. I shoot weddings and dad videos but haven’t spent enough time in either. Might buy davinci this year

fan fact here adobe pre pro is better ( notice i use hack adobe program )

Both is best, but I feel that Davinci wins when it comes for prepping for working in the industry and knowing a software that can be used on both systems. That being said, Final Cut isn't a slouch either. Been using Davinci for years, and learning Final Cut now!

I think FCP will rise late this year, especially with Apple's new intelligence. I think (hopefully) the Pro Apps team will take advantage of Apple's new AI.

Both, clearly. No one piece of software will do every job in every situation. And while you're at it, throw in Motion - even without FCP. It's a great "non-plugin" plugin for DaVinci.

Real Man use Final Cut 💪

Premiere Pro.

Extra Nice 🍎

woooooah is these final cut captions lol

From this video it's obviously to me that you dont know how to use DaVinci Resolve. By you example, you need 4 moves for Final Cut BUT for DaVinci Resolve in 3. I know what you're thinking: "Yake, 3 versus 4! That doesn't really matter like whatever!" NO! It does! It absolutely matters.

I know the sound. Sadly, the mic isn't picking it up particularly well. I've heard it very clear on these speakers in other videos before, so I know they can play it.

Criminally low view counts on these videos. Hoping the algo sends Christmas your way

Are you able to do spins like when a coin spins on a table?

Very original way of telling a story, yep agree magic mask is crazy fast and accurate, love ya intro and video !

Crazy good intro! As a Davinci Resolve editor, I'm jelly! Solid job man, keen to see more 🙌🏼

First of all great video man. I don't edit videos that much, I started my editing with filmora and it has this cut icon on the top of the play head which makes cutting footage so fast and I didn't even had to use my keyboard I could do it with just my mouse. When I tried other pro video editors I was so frustrated they didn't had something to make cutting footage fast. I wish other video editors add this Final Cut feature. You are first person I have seen talking about this.

I’m here for this. Congrats you got a subscriber.

Liked the video cuz u had fun 😊🥹, just wish there were people that understand such like me scrolling through TH-cam 😢🤦‍♀️

Daniel Schiffer is FCP goat editor!

nice intro

Glad to see music and vibe rather than the cinematic bgm stuff! Feels more Jake than ever man! LFG

1:30 It was better for you to ask God and not to ask anyone else

Am I the only one who can see pennywise the clowns silhouette in the background of this video?!?!

The setup that MAXES out FCP'S efficiency: Logitech Mx master 3s & the Loupdeck CT

Dude such a great explanation of why easing adds so much! Also had no clue you gave a shout for Truly Handheld. Appreciate you brochacho!!
