    For sure. We’ve already heard about the new Mocha/Coremelt roto plugin, and Philip Hodgets Lumberjack logging plugin for reality and documentary.

    And motionVFX has been hinting about something big.

    Thanks for reminding me, I thought the list of pre announced features were extended beyond 10.0.3 on apple.com, but maybe they did not.

    [Marcus Moore] “If you look back to last year, you’ll see some articles from Larry Jordan, Scott Simmons, Philip Hodgets, and others about sit-downs they had with Apple- talking about where the software is at, and some roadmap previews. Expect something similar. I don’t have any other details I can share.”

    I’m well aware that they have their little talks. Every company in attendance at NAB does. I don’t consider those “press conferences,” which is why I asked.

    Sure thing. It might be more than one-on-one briefings, but my info in vague in that regard.

    Ultimately, I think Apple didn’t want to go into NAB with an NLE that had a major bug that prevented third party plugins working properly. With that fixed and some ‘pro’ level niceties added in they’re all set to push FCPX via their marketing campaign.

    Again, I’d expect at least some hinting at the roadmap for the future. Especially if they plan to do anything with collaborative editing and improving the audio workflow – which I would think are probably the two most used reasons for not considering FCPX in a larger facility.

    Agreed. Collaborative and audio are the low hanging fruit right now.

    Dynamic trimming keeps coming up as well.

    Yeah, the first time they posted stuff on the site was after 10.0.2. Then after 10.0.3 was released, there was nothing on the site until after the 2012 NAB announcements. Then nothing since 10.0.6 was released.

    So it will be interesting to see what gets announced at NAB and how vague the time-frame is.

    Steve, as your projects get bigger do you experience the insufferable lag on your machine? I’ve reached a point in a current job where my soul sinks every time I get an amendment or tweak to do because of how frustratingly slow the project has become. I ask as you are running an older machine too, and I even maxed out my ram and got a far better graphics card and still no improvement.

    Julian, how big is your event? How many clips? and how long is the project?

    I tend to break down long projects into 15-20 minute segments, things can slow down with larger projects.

    The only impact I see if I have lots of clips in the event is that the event will take a while to load, large events don’t seem to bog down projects.

    I keep waveforms off unless I’m working audio and keeping the inspector closed can help with speed as well
