Does Final Cut Pro 10.5.4 work on Monterey

I am heavily dependent on Final Cut Pro on my 2018 iMac. Does FCP work seamlessly on Monterey? I am not seeing encouraging signs. Should upgrade to Monterey? I have Catalina currently....

That's your call to upgrade the OS.

If you are in the middle of mission critical work, not a good idea.

Square up your Projects.


Upgrades to a newer OS can leave your plugins floundering or not working.

Unexpected quirks can appear.


I would put Monterey on a seperate external drive and boot into Monterey from the external and test drive it until you are satisfied.


Always have a backup before proceeding so you can revert even if things sound OK on the surface.
