Best NLE ever
Hirschkorn
I've been using this since it was released (half-baked, to be completely honest; it quickly added the missing bits though). I love it. I've tried using other NLEs when the situation or project asked for it, but I was always happy to go back to FCPX at the end of the day. Obviously, "the best" NLE is the one you like and know the most. For me, it's FCPX. Any other NLE makes you feel like an engineer, while FCPX makes you feel like an artist. This is why I hope Apple will continue to develop this fine and capable piece of software — and this is my only complain about it: for a professional app, Apple's secrecy about its future can be disconcerning.
Beautiful fluid experience

At this point on my main Mac I use 2 paid applications: Final Cut Pro and Photoshop 2022. The photoshop experience is poor, laggy, I'm having better experience with 10 years old licensed Photoshop on my older iMac (extremely poor experience using the Crop function for example). But, the Final Cut experience, the way the software responds is mind-blowing. I love it!!!!
Good but lagging behind

Once the pinnacle of optimization of video editing experience, what looked like a super deal became in 3-5 years a software that almost feels like a basic video editor.Apple has left this software behind and other video editing products start to look much better in terms of what you can do with it and maybe even speed.I could go on and on with it, but in general. Color grading, better stabilization, AI video slow motion, editing by text are a few of the tools that make a huge difference in speed in some parts of video editing.
Worth every penny

To be honest, I realry had FinalCut close unexpectedly and in the very rare cases where that happened, none of my work was lost or dammaged. It's such a beautiful pice of software and with FinalCut 11, edititng becomes even more enjoyable. Must try the features and give it a change.
