A Few Free Useful Tools for FCPX Editors

By Scott Simmons / July 12, 2011

If you’re digging in and learning/working with Final Cut Pro X, you might be interested in a few recent freebies that alex4d has placed online for us all to download and use. FCPX is built on a new effects architecture and uses Motion templates to make up an FCPX effect. That’s exactly how Alex’s tools were built. You don’t have to have Motion 5 installed to make use of them, either … but really, Motion 5 is only $50 so if you’ve downloaded FCPX, you probably have Motion 5 at this point. Thanks to Alex for making these available.

• FCPX 4-up effect

• Alex 4D Dimensions

• Sound-only transition

• Alex 4D Text Box

• 8 Point Mask

My bet is that Alex will keep making these things for the FCPX community. Keep an eye on his website for more.
