Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro are coming to the iPad (via subscriptions)

Well, I wasn’t expecting this: Apple has unveiled Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro for iPad. The tech giant says that video and music creators can now unleash their creativity in new ways that are only possible on iPad.

Bob Borchers, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing, says Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro for iPad bring all-new touch interfaces that allow users to enhance their workflows with the immediacy and intuitiveness of Multi-Touch. 

Final Cut Pro for iPad introduces a set of tools for video creators to record, edit, finish, and share, all from one portable device. Borchers says that Logic Pro for iPad puts the power of professional music creation in the hands of the creator with a complete collection of sophisticated tools for songwriting, beat making, recording, editing, and mixing. 

You can read all about the new features here. Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro for iPad will be available on the App Store as subscriptions starting Tuesday, May 23. To me, that’s a bummer: I prefer to pay for apps and their upgrades outright rather than be tied to a subscription service.

Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro for iPad will each be available on the App Store for US$4.99 per month or $49 per year with a one-month free trial. Final Cut Pro is compatible with M1 chip iPad models or later, and Logic Pro will be available on A12 Bionic chip iPad models or later. Final Cut Pro for iPad and Logic Pro for iPad require iPadOS 16.4.
