Final Cut Studio is a discontinued suite of professional video production and post-production made by Apple for the Mac. The suite competed with Avid Media Composer for the high-end movie production market. It first went on sale in 2005.
In 2011, after the release of Final Cut Pro X, Apple discontinued Final Cut Studio, Final Cut Express, and Final Cut Server.[1] Upon its discontinuation, Final Cut Studio was no longer on sale in Apple Stores or on Apple's website, but was still available through Apple's phone sales. Its three primary applications Final Cut Pro, Motion, and Compressor, are still actively developed, and available on the Mac App Store. As of 2017, Final Cut Pro 7 no longer runs on macOS High Sierra or later;[2] it can be patched to run on recent versions of macOS, though this is not supported by Apple.[3]
