Editors' note: This is a developing story and will be updated as details come in.
Apple tonight took the wraps off Final Cut Pro X, a new version of its professional video-editing software that the company says is a complete rewrite of the 12-year-old platform.
Final Cut X is 64-bit application written in Apple's Cocoa. It sports a new interface, as well as features to speed up the editing process, including background rendering and the option to make edits as footage is being imported.
The new software--which was announced at the annual Supermeet editor meet-up event that takes place in concert with the National Association of Broadcasters trade show in Vegas--marked a return of Apple releasing a new version of the software at NAB, though once again the company was not at the show itself.
Apple made headlines last week for allegedly getting Supermeet's event organizers to cancel its planned speakers, as well as sponsorships from competitors like Avid, and hardware vendors like Canon to make it the only presenter.
That turned out to be the case with Apple's senior video applications engineer Peter Steinauer making an appearance to outline the new software in an on-stage demo.
