File and Project Interchange : Import / Export
18 - 495
Final Cut Pro XML
Note: FCP X is NOT supported.
Supports import and export of MasterClips, Bins, Sequences or Projects to and from Pyramix.
To export a FCP XML file from Final Cut Pro, either select a single Sequence or a full Project in Final Cut Pro and
select File > Export > XML. This will export either a single Sequence (with the choice of all referenced MasterClips
along with it) or a full Project including all Sequences and MasterClips contained in it.
To import a FCP XML file into Pyramix, create an empty project and select Project > Import and choose the Final
Cut Pro XML format.
Note: When importing in Pyramix a FCP XML file containing more than one Sequence or Master-
Clip, Pyramix will prompt you to choose which of the available Sequences you would like to
import into the Timeline and will allow you to import all others into the Default Library of the
current project.
