ProCutx, the iPad controller for Final Cut Pro X, can now make video editing even faster. Pixel Film Studios, the creators of ProCutX, has released the 1.1 update for the application, which can be downloaded from the Apple App Store immediately.
“The 1.1 version of ProCutX for Final Cut Pro X adds many awesome features that were missing from the 1.0 version,” said Christina Austin, CEO of Pixel Film Studios, “All the improvements that we made for this update were based on our fans' feedback.”
Pixel Film Studios successfully released their iPad app, ProCutX, two weeks ago, and instantly became a trending topic on almost every major Apple blog and forum. The app is designed to allow editors to break free from menus and tabs in an effort to streamline their tasks. Using the iPad application, filmmakers have control over all of Final Cut Pro X's editing tools.
In the future, Pixel Film Studios aims to limit the number of mouse clicks and keystrokes editors need to make while working. With the 1.1 version of the app, editors will now be able to add In and Out points along their footage. In and Out points allow users to define a specific portion of a clip or sequence for editing, deletion, copying, and pasting.
Along with In and Out points users will now be able to select clips in the timeline. Combined with the Jog Wheel and Toolbox features, users will now be able to edit even more without having to refer back to the keyboard or mouse. After selecting their In and Out points, users can drop their clips from the Events Browser into the timeline at the tap of a button.
ProCutX users can download the update by going to their purchased apps in the Apple App Store, and look for updates. With the 1.1 version and future updates to come, the ProCutX will be a step closer to eliminate the need for the mouse and keyboard.
