Multicam Flattener
Finally it is possible to flatten Multicam clips in Final Cut Pro timelines!
Multicam clips can't be stabilized, require additional system resources to play back all the alternate angles, and users often ask to finalize or flatten their multicam clips to the actual source media in the selected angles.
The Multicam Flattener workflow extension for Final Cut Pro makes it possible!

Xsend Motion
The missing piece between Final Cut Pro and Motion: Xsend Motion from Automatic Duck.
Xsend Motion converts your FCP timeline into a Motion project in just seconds, translating Transforms like Position and Scale, Opacity and blending modes, titles and the Custom LUT effect as well.
A new Motion project is created referencing the same media files used by Final Cut Pro, no new media is created. You can easily adjust your footage in Motion, everything is live and not baked-in.
You can send an entire project from FCP to Motion, or you can export the contents of a compound clip to XML and translate that into Motion. Your Motion work can be exported back to FCP as a QuickTime movie or published as a Generator. Any time you have a clip or set of clips in FCPX that want to use in Motion, Xsend Motion is the tool you need to send those projects across.

Media Copy 4.0
Automatic Duck’s Media Copy is a very helpful utility that reads Avid AAF exports or XML files from Final Cut Pro, then copies the media files referenced by the project to a location you specify. This makes it very easy to identify and copy the media you need for a specific AAF or XML File. You can archive the media, or perhaps send to another computer.
