How do I find the system requirements for a plugin?

How to Find System Requirements for a Plugin

Before purchasing a plugin, it’s important to make sure your system meets the required specifications.

You can find the system requirements and technical details directly on each product page.

Where to find system requirements

Go to the product page (for example: TransZoom Mask)
Scroll down below the main preview and product description
Locate the section labeled:
Technical Specifications

This section replaces the older “System Requirements” tab and contains all compatibility information.

What information is included

In the Technical Specifications section, you’ll typically find:

Required version of Final Cut Pro
Supported macOS version
Plugin type (Titles, Generators, Effects, etc.)
Additional notes about compatibility or usage

How to know if your system is compatible

If your system meets or exceeds the listed requirements, the plugin should work as expected
If your system is below the required version, the plugin may not install or function correctly

⚠️ Important: Most compatibility issues are caused by outdated versions of Final Cut Pro or macOS.
