Noise Industries, developer of visual effects technology for the broadcast and film industry announced on 26 October ’06 the release of FxFactory, a new visual effects package for Apple’s Final Cut Studio. FxFactory offers an extensive collection of over 100 GPU-accelerated plug-ins based on Apple’s FxPlug architecture for the highest performance inside Final Cut Pro and Motion.
FxFactory is the first expandable effects package for Final Cut Studio, thanks to a plug-in management system that lets users download new visual effects, try them out in projects, and only pay for the plug-ins as needed. For professional users, FxFactory offers new ways to improve their toolset. FxFactory Pro is the only software that lets you create and modify your own
visual effects plug-ins for Final Cut Pro and Motion, without writing a single line of code.
