I highly recommend Patrick Inhoffer's course on. Kinda leaning toward Resolve after this subscription rumour. I learn in a structured way, pitifully slowly, ideally from a book, so a week or even a month of playing around won’t tell me how I’d like it after six months. Moreover, fooling around with complex new software doesn’t really tell me much. I’ve never been able to trust Apple since they abandoned Aperture. Is it likely to stick around in its current form, I wonder. That’s useful on the software comparison, though I’m still wondering about the long-term future of FCP. I'm still on Resolve 14 due to having and older OS on my Mac, so I can't comment on the recent versions, but I think you'll find Resolve's cut page pretty intuitive for simple projects.Īssuming that you don't require a feature that's only in the Studio version, you might as well download the free version of Resolve and give it a test run. If you have no experience with video editing, I doubt that ease of use will be much of a factor, as there will be a learning curve either way. FCPX is a different animal, I've used FCP 4.5, Premiere, and Resolve, and I couldn't figure out how to manually configure export settings in FCPX it operates completely different from standard NLEs.
Resolve functions similar enough to most other NLEs that it's not too difficult to transition to it if you have experience with another traditional NLE software.
I'm a long-time Apple user, but I don't like the direction the company is heading, and might have to resort to using a Windows PC for video editing. One software might have an edge over the other for certain uses, so it boils down to how you intend to use it, and how you think you'll use it in the future.Īpple does a good job of optimizing their software for their hardware, so you can get good editing performance on a low-ish powered Mac, but would need a pretty powerful computer for Resolve, however, Apple has become pretty ridiculous in their pricing, so you could easily build a Linux or Windows PC for Resolve at a lower or equivalent price to a Mac. They're really not equivalent software, Apple would have to combined Final Cut Pro, Motion, Compressor, Logic, and Shake to get close to the capabilities of Resolve.
