Remote Desktop with Audio for Final Cut Pro – Is It Possible?

Hi everyone,


I need to remotely access my Mac’s screen with audio while working in Final Cut Pro from another Mac (not on the same network). At a conference, I heard that macOS Sequoia has built-in Screen Sharing—how can I set it up to transmit system sound properly?

I’ve tried connecting via Screen Sharing using an IP address, but the sound wasn’t working on my end.


Is there a native way to enable both screen sharing and audio, or would I need third-party software? If so, what are the best options for low-latency performance and security when editing in Final Cut Pro remotely?


I’d prefer a macOS-native solution but am open to third-party apps if necessary.


Thanks in advance!

MacBook Pro (M2, 2022)

I've also been looking for a solution. I think Screen Sharing (even in the latest MacOS) is based on/uses VNC which to my understanding does not natively carry audio. I just read that RealVNC says they began supporting audio for the Mac back in December. I have not tested it.


I recently discovered an open source screen sharing platform similar to TeamViewer called RustDesk but based on the Discord support comments, it doesn't sound like audio is supported from a remote Mac.
