# Final Cut Pro

Final Cut Pro opens StoryCut's **FCPXML** export (`.fcpxml`). Choose **Final Cut Pro** as the editor in the export form; see [Exporting to your editor](/docs/exporting) for the rest of the form.

## Import it

1. In Final Cut Pro, choose **File › Import › XML…**
2. Pick the `.fcpxml` file you downloaded.
3. Final Cut Pro adds an event with the project and the clips it uses. Open the project.

If a clip shows red frames, Final Cut Pro couldn't find its media file at the path you gave: select it and choose **File › Relink Files…**, or export again with the right path.

## What comes across

- **A recording:** a multicam clip with every camera angle in sync on the recording's clock, cut into the clips you exported.
- **A timeline:** the rough cut, with its first track in the primary storyline and the tracks above it connected to it. A slot with several takes becomes an audition, the take that plays first, so you can try the others in place.
- **Markers** come across on their clips.

## Frame rates

Final Cut Pro checks frame rates strictly. NTSC rates (23.976, 29.97 and 59.94 fps) are exported exactly, so they import cleanly as long as each media file's frame rate in the export form matches the file. If Final Cut Pro rejects the file, check the frame rate first.
