But by using it everyday, it became second nature to me. And even after 20 years I know that I still don't know everything that was included in its first nearly 3 inch thick instruction manual. It takes a long time for someone to "discover" all it can do. It even renders in the background while you are editing in the timeline! It is a very deep and complex program.
#OLDER VERSION OF FINAL CUT PRO PRO#
Now my 4th Mac Pro does that in just a minute or so. In 1999, on a Mac G3, it would take an hour to render one minute's worth of video that had lots of layers and effects. The program has the ability to be able to work with almost any kind of video file you throw at it. I miss some of things the older versions had, but version 10 is really amazing. It was like relearning the whole thing over again. The changes made to version 10 were really major. It has gone from version 1 to version 10. When Apple released Final Cut Pro it was a studio software package, that included an audio editor, a color correction tool, an After Effects like app called Motion and a DVD authoring app, all in a huge box of books and DVDs.
The $1000 price was amazing to me, having worked with the Media 100 before, which was a big physical card that was installed in a Power Mac that had a price tag of $12,500. The first version of the Final Cut Pro software came out in 1999 just before I started DV Post.
