SRT-based paper editing for Final Cut Pro — now with Multitrack FCPXML support for Multicam, Sync Clip, and Compound Clips.
ScriptBlade turns your SRT into a rough cut timeline for Final Cut Pro — without touching a single clip manually.
Select the lines you want to keep, hide the rest, and export a trimmed FCPXML. Final Cut Pro opens it as a pre-cut timeline, ready to refine.
What You Can Do
• Build a paper edit from any SRT file
• Navigate segments with ↑↓ keys and toggle Keep/Drop with Space — no mouse required
• Batch-select by keyword: search a word, then keep or drop every matching segment at once
• Set a target duration and track progress with live color feedback
• Save your session as a project file (.sbproject) and resume anytime
• Multi-select with Shift — or use Keep All / Drop All
• Export FCPXML and import directly into Final Cut Pro
• Supports Multicam, Sync Clip, and Compound Clip timelines
• Import .fcpxmld packages exported from Final Cut Pro
• Undo / Redo (Cmd+Z / Cmd+Shift+Z)
• 100% offline — all processing happens locally on your Mac. Nothing is uploaded or sent to any server.
How It Works
1. Prepare an SRT file (generated with any external transcription tool)
2. Navigate your segments with the keyboard — keep what matters, drop the rest
3. Export → link your original FCPXML → generate → import into Final Cut Pro
Best For
Interviews (including multi-camera setups), documentaries, lectures — any long-form content where you need to find the moments that matter.
Note
ScriptBlade does not include transcription. You'll need an SRT file created with an external tool. Source media must already be available in your Final Cut Pro library for the exported timeline to link correctly.
All operations are performed locally. No files, media, or script content are ever uploaded.
