San Francisco: Apple is launching a new Creator Studio subscription bundle. This bundle offers six creative apps and premium content in iWork apps. It costs $12.99 per month or $129 per year. The apps included are Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, and Pixelmator Pro on Mac and iPad. You can also use Motion, Compressor, and MainStage on Mac. College students and educators can subscribe for just $2.99 per month or $29.99 each year.

Apple Creator Studio will be available starting January 28. New subscribers get a one-month free trial. Also, Apple shared that these creative apps are getting new features to help users.

Final Cut Pro has some great updates on Mac and iPad. Now you can use Transcript Search to find sound clips. There’s also Visual Search to find moments by describing them, along with Beat Detection. The iPad version has a Montage Maker for quick edits and Auto Crop to adjust content size.

Logic Pro is getting new features too. It will have Synth Player, Chord ID, a new sound library, and natural language search. MainStage is included, allowing Mac users to act as musicians or voice processors.

Apple bought Pixelmator Pro in 2024, and now it comes to iPad. It features Apple Pencil support and quick image editing tools. Users can also access Motion, which helps make graphics, and Compressor, which works with Final Cut Pro.

Eddy Cue, Apple’s senior vice president, shared how valuable Creator Studio is. It gives creators easy access to powerful tools for video editing, music making, and more.

With a Creator Studio subscription, users can find a new “Content Hub” in Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. This hub has high-quality photos, graphics, and illustrations. There are also new templates and themes available.

Additionally, subscribers can use beta features in Keynote, like generating presentation drafts from text and cleaning up layouts. In Numbers, Magic Fill can recognize patterns to fill tables easily.

Apple will also keep selling Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Pixelmator Pro, Motion, Compressor, and MainStage as one-time purchases. You’ll still find free versions of Numbers, Pages, Keynote, and Freeform.
