A/V output
You can now connect your computer to an external video monitor for audio and video (A/V)
output. In addition to showing you how video and audio look and sound on an NTSC/PAL or HD
broadcast monitor, this feature also allows you to test output with more sophisticated devices
such as vectorscopes and waveform monitors.
A/V output is available only with OS X Lion v10.7.2 or later and requires compatible third-
party video interface hardware and software. FireWire DV devices are not supported. For more
information, contact the device manufacturer or go to the Final Cut Pro X Resources webpage at
For more information, see

on page 79.
Manual relinking of clips to media files
Now you can manually relink event clips and project clips to media files. Manual relinking gives
you more control over your post-production workflow.

•
Layered graphics files, such as Adobe Photoshop (PSD) files, can now be edited so that each
layer appears as a connected clip in the Timeline.

Advanced Keyer controls are now available.
•
Keyframing controls are improved in the Video and Audio Animation Editors.
What’s new in Final Cut Pro 10.0.1?
Final Cut Pro 10.0.1 includes a number of new features, enhancements, and changes. The most
significant features are introduced below.
Roles
You can use the new roles metadata labels to organize clips in your events and projects, control
the appearance of the Timeline, and export separate video or audio files (also known as media
stems) for broadcast delivery, audio mixing, or post-production. For example, you can export
roles as media stems in a combined, multitrack QuickTime file, or as separate audio or video
files. During the export process you can assign mono, stereo, or surround output for your
audio channels.
For more information, see
on page 299 and
on
page 422.
Storage area network (SAN) locations
You can now add network volumes as storage locations for events and projects. When you
remove SAN locations in Final Cut Pro, other users on the network can work with the events
and projects stored on those locations.
For more information, see
Use SAN locations for events and projects
on page 410.
XML export and import
Final Cut Pro now supports XML import and export so that you can transfer your project and
event information to and from systems and third-party applications that don’t recognize
Final Cut Pro projects and events.
