For the first time, Apple is offering a 3-month trial for two of its Pro Apps – Final Cut Pro X and Logic Pro X. For anyone, including students around the world to use and learn whilst working at home. By being able to push their creativity into professional levels.
Every Mac includes free Apple-designed creative apps that enable editing of music and video. Garageband allows you to create, edit, and learn music like a pro. While iMovie is an easy-to-edit movie-making app allowing you to share 4K videos.
However, Apple also has several Pro Apps which offer greater professional-level features. Apple goes on to say these apps are “For professionals ready to push their creativity”. And that they offer “maximum control over editing, processing and output of music and film.
Two leading Apple Pro Apps are as follows:
Logic Pro X
Logic Pro puts a complete recording and MIDI production studio on your Mac, with everything you need to write, record, edit and mix like never before. And with a huge collection of full-featured plug-ins along with thousands of sounds and loops, you’ll have everything you need to go from first inspiration to final master, no matter what kind of music you want to create.
Final Cut Pro X
Built to meet the needs of today’s creative editors, Final Cut Pro offers revolutionary video editing, powerful media organisation and incredible performance optimised for Mac computers and macOS Catalina.
Many film studios around the world even use Final Cut Pro X.
Trials
Anyone with a compatible Mac around the world, including Australia can now use Final Cut Pro X and Logic Pro X for free – for 90 days. With Apple extending the usual 30-day trial for Final Cut Pro X to 90 days. And Logic Pro X, which has not had a trial previously, now has a 90-day trial.
There is no limitation with the two trials with the only exception is the 90-day time limit. Apple has confirmed that all projects you create can be opened if you purchase the Apps after the trial.
