You can add captions to a project—for example, to deliver it with subtitles or closed captions. You can use Transcribe to Captions to create captions automatically from any spoken English-language audio, or you can create captions manually, by adding text in the caption editor or by importing caption files.In Final Cut Pro, captions are assigned special caption roles. To create a new set of captions manually, you first choose a caption format (CEA-608, iTT, or SRT), then you create a caption role specific to that format and a subrole for each language version.Captions are always connected clips. Captions can also be connected to other connected clips.Use Transcribe to Captions to create captions automaticallyTranscribe to Captions uses an AI language model to create captions in the timeline from spoken English-language audio (macOS Sequoia or later is required).In Final Cut Pro, select one or more clips in the timeline.Do one of the following:Control-click the selection and choose Transcribe to Captions.Choose Edit > Captions > Transcribe to Captions (or press Shift-Command-C).Click the Enhancements pop-up menu below the viewer and choose Transcribe to Captions.Final Cut Pro transcribes each clip in the selection and automatically connects the resulting caption clips to the clips they were transcribed from. The caption clips appear in a dedicated captions lane at the top of the timeline (see Show or hide captions in the timeline).If you’re creating captions for clips that have split edits (J-cuts and L-cuts), Final Cut Pro connects caption clips to adjacent clips that overlap the transcribed audio.Note: If you’re creating captions automatically for the first time, Final Cut Pro downloads the language model and then creates the captions. The download happens only once (an internet connection is required).Transcribe to Captions creates English captions in the iTT format. To convert the captions to a different format, see Convert captions to another format in Final Cut Pro for Mac.Tip: Background noises, music, or overlapping dialogue might affect the accuracy and timing of automatically generated captions. Try enhancing the spoken audio with Voice Isolation and Noise Removal to improve the quality of the captions. See Enhance audio in Final Cut Pro for Mac.Create caption roles and subroles manuallyTo open the Final Cut Pro role editor, do one of the following:Choose Modify > Edit Roles.In the Roles pane of the timeline index, click Edit Roles.Click Captions at the top of the role editor to open the Captions pane.To create a caption role, click the Caption Role button, then choose a caption format from the pop-up menu: iTT, CEA-608, or SRT.A new caption role appears in the Caption Roles list in the format you chose. You can change the name of a role at any time by clicking it.By default, Final Cut Pro creates a caption language subrole based on the preferred language setting in macOS System Settings. For example, if macOS is set to English, Final Cut Pro creates a subrole for the English language. To change the preferred language setting, choose Apple menu > System Settings, click General in
