Using Logic Pro with Final Cut Pro

Logic Pro is a full-featured music production application that you can use to score your
Final Cut Pro project. You can easily use Logic Pro to export completed music mixdowns
and import these files into Final Cut Pro. For more complicated projects, you can use the
Final Cut Pro XML Interchange Format to transfer data between Final Cut Pro and
Logic Pro. For example, you can transfer multiple tracks complete with clips properly
positioned in the Timeline and Arrange windows, region names, and volume and pan
automation data.
