Where to download Final Cut Pro 7

[Michael Gissing]

FCP7 was EOLd so long ago. Unless someone has turned the disks into iso images and uploaded them, you might find it easier to buy an external CD/ DVD Rom drive that plugs into a usb port and install from there.

If you want to download an NLE that is vastly better than FCP7 then I recommend Blackmagic’s Da Vinci Resolve.

I was as die-hard for seven as anyone but yeah, if your machine can run it, no reason not to get the free version of Resolve because it is enough like Seven you will like like it was a the version eight that never happened.

Getting copies of seven now involves dealing with perhaps (terms blocked by site filters) so don’t do that.

Hi Fay,
You can buy FCP7 disks on ebay for reasonable prices. What OS and machine will you run them on?

I personally have found Resolve quite different from both FCP7 and Premier Pro.

Good luck,
Robert

I would try eBay but make sure your computer can run it. Sadly neither of my machines are able to run fcp7 anymore . If you don’t have any luck on Ebay try amazon marketplace.

Like Michael said – purchase an USB optical drive – they still have them at walmart and target.

otherwise talk with your contact at Apple.
