Producer’s Best Friend, from Intelligent Assistance, will either be a program you can’t live without or you’ll wonder why anyone needs it at all. It vastly simplifies the process of generating printed music cue, transition, media and effects reports from Final Cut Pro X. Producers often need to submit these reports along with their programs when delivering for broadcast or national cable distribution.
