I like making simple Instagram reels using my photography photos and short videos. How can I easily sync up the moment the pictures transition (just normal cut transition) to the beat of a song? I've been individually slicing the photos at the beats but that takes a lot of time and there's a lot of room for error. Is there a more simple way of doing this?

I believe there are a couple different plugins that can help with what you want. Here's one - with a free 7 day trial to see if it suits: ulti.media/beatmark-pro-automatic-music-...g-for-final-cut-pro/

Take a look at this:

I find having on onscreen visual marker to be very helpful.
