It works by converting the exported Final Cut Pro XML into an AAF file, which Avid Pro Tools can then open as a session, delivering seamless integration between the two applications.

The new X2Pro5 software is a complete rewrite of Marquis’ popular X2Pro Audio Convert software and brings with it native Apple silicon support and a redesigned user interface. It also takes advantage of the innovative metadata-based organising features in Final Cut Pro X, with expanded role management allowing unlimited numbers of audio roles in Final Cut Pro X to be converted into Pro Tools tracks for further audio processing and finishing by the audio engineer.

Immersive audio technology continues to grow in popularity; X2Pro5 software provides a very quick way for FCP users to be able to deliver a project to an external Pro Tools audio editor, sharing the FCPXML file so they can mix – and deliver – multi-channel audio. X2Pro5 has a simple, straightforward interface and is also easy to customise; for example, you can decide if you want to include disabled or inactive clips in the export, and you can choose the length of frame handles. Essentially, X2Pro5 provides a fully professional audio workflow for Final Cut Pro editors, sending a very complex audio timeline to the Pro Tools audio engineer with ease.
