GoKawiilApple may have replaced standalone 3-month trials of Logic Pro and Final Cut Pro with Apple Creator Studio’s 1-month test period, but there’s one way to still get up to 90 days of access, at least for now. Here’s how to do it.
Apple Creator Studio offers a 30-day trial
Last week, Apple announced “Apple Creator Studio”, a subscription service that will include at launch:
Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, and Pixelmator Pro on Mac and iPad
Motion, Compressor, and MainStage on Mac
Intelligent features and premium content for Keynote, Pages, Numbers
The $12.99/month or $129/year service will roll out on January 28, but Apple will still offer one-time purchases for Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Pixelmator Pro, Motion, Compressor, and MainStage through the Mac App Store.
However, as Reddit users noted (via MacMagazine), Apple “has discontinued the trial versions of Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro”.
This means that while users could previously download 90-day trial versions of Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro independently, the only official way to test both pieces of software going forward will be through the Apple Creator Studio’s 30-day trial. Or is it?
