Apple today brought its Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro software to the iPad for the first time, allowing content creators to use their tablets for video editing and sound recording. We decided to test out Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro to see how they measure up to the Mac versions.
MacRumors video editor Dan Barbera uses Final Cut Pro to edit the videos that you see on MacRumors, so it’s software that he’s very familiar with. He doesn’t use Logic Pro as often, but takes a look at the interface differences.
Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro for iPad promise to deliver many of the same features that are available on the Mac, with a touch-first interface that’s optimized for the iPad. Dan will be editing a full video on the iPad using Final Cut Pro, so keep an eye out for that follow-up to the initial hands-on look.
Final Cut Pro requires an M1 chip or later, so it is limited to Apple’s newest iPads. Logic Pro requires an A12 Bionic chip or later. The apps are priced at $4.99 per month or $49 per year in the United States, with a one-month free trial available.
