    I’m going to stick with FCP7 for now. It’s a great online tool and is rock solid.
    If I had the money I’d be looking at Smoke. Will be ordering Resolve 8.

    I want to switch to premiere, but at least I need control surface for audio mixing. This is my only need to the change.

    Another really good point would also be, which other NLE would you choose to learn how to edit in and investing your time and money as opposed to FCPX?

    I would definitely invest my time and money on Avid DS and Smoke, if you already know Avid. I ahve already worked on Premiere CS5 and it also sounds like a good choice as a substitute for FCPX

    Lots of choice out there!

    Sticking with FCS2. It is working, and for the most part stable. If I can get a copy of FCS3 I might upgrade.
    Looking seriously at getting CS5.
    I’m also on the list for Lightworks for Mac when it’s released. I figure if your going to be a beta tester at least you shouldn’t have to pay for the software.

    I have a system, it has stuff in it, and stuff hooked to it. I have a camera, it can record stuff. I read the manuals, and know how to use this stuff and lots of other stuff too.
    You should be suitably impressed…

    Avid is offering FCP users the ability to change to their solution for $995 through the end of June. Class on Demand offers a DVD for Media Composer for Final Cut Editors $99.

    The Avid software comes with all the 3rd Party solutions as well: Boris Continuum, Avid FX, Sorenson 6 and others.

    Seems like the most economical choice is Avid, plus they have really been putting out the releases lately, two a year compared to Appe’s one every 2.5 years and then this child’s toy.

    Avid by far is the best choice.

    I’ve been considering PP5.5 for a while, I’ve been doing test projects on it for a while, it’s fast and it’s very good, but I’d got used to no system crashes with FCP7 and I’m finding I get more than I expected with Premiere even on my 8 core Mac Pro with 8GB RAM
