Video editor for Mac

The whole film on one timeline.

A travel film starts as a folder of clips, a song and an idea for the opening title. Lay them out on one timeline, with as many video, sound, title, effect and subtitle tracks as the film needs.

Trim with ripple, roll, slip and slide while the viewer shows both sides of the cut, insert and overwrite from the keyboard, and undo any step. Or let the beat of the music place the cuts for you.

Cut to the beat

Cut a travel film to the beat.

Put the clips of the trip and a song on the timeline. Montage Pro finds the beats in the music and lays your clips on them, or makes each clip a set number of beats long.

Changed your mind about the song? Swap it for another and keep every cut. Then join the shots with a dissolve, a dip or a zoom.

Titles and motion graphics

Open the film with a title.

Pick one of the 32 ready-made titles, lower thirds, callouts and badges in the Titles browser and put it over the first shot. Type its words, choose its colours and set the length of its animation in the inspector.

Want a title of your own? Build it in the Motion Editor, with layers, keyframes, text on a path, 3D cameras and motion blur.

Steady shots

Steady a handheld shot.

A walk through a market, filmed by hand, shakes on a big screen. Montage Pro steadies it with the gyro data your camera recorded with the video, or from the picture itself when there is none.

Subtitles

Subtitle an interview on your Mac.

Montage Pro turns what people say into subtitles right on your Mac, without the sound leaving it. Export them as SRT or WebVTT, ready for the place where the interview will play.

Everything the film needs.

Choose the task: assemble the edit, add titles and colour, balance the sound, then export the film for the screen it will play on.

Assemble a long edit

Put video, sound, titles, effects and subtitles on as many tracks as the film needs. Insert and overwrite from the keyboard, and undo any step.

Fine-tune each cut

Ripple, roll, slip and slide with both sides of the cut in the viewer, then join the shots with a dissolve, a dip or a zoom.

Title a promo video

Start from a ready-made title or build your own in the Motion Editor, with layers, keyframes, text on a path, 3D cameras and motion blur. Animation files from your design tools play as clips.

Cut a speaker out of the background

Effects cut the speaker out of the background right on your Mac. Add blurs, glows, colour looks and lens effects from Montage Pro’s own set.

Grade log footage

Work with log footage from the main camera makers, LUTs, colour wheels and curves, and deliver the film in Rec.709, P3 or HDR.

Balance music and voices

Mix every track with fades, Montage Pro’s own audio effects and the Audio Units already on your Mac.

Export for every screen

Export the whole timeline, a range or every clip as its own movie, in ProRes, HEVC or H.264.

Use your plug-ins

The OpenFX plug-ins on your Mac appear in the Effects browser and run in processes of their own, so a plug-in that crashes never takes Montage Pro with it.

Edit with an AI assistant

An AI assistant that speaks MCP can read and edit your project, and each change it makes is one undo step.
