“Of course not, There’s a laundry list of things that need to be implemented, fixed and/improved. I’m specifically addressing the topic (believe it or not lol) that audio editing in X, and by extension the whole magnetic timeline is somehow sub-par because of the lack of fixed tracks. It isn’t.

June 4, 2014 at 9:39 pmApple is committed to preserving its brand. If you think they (or any other corporation) is doing otherwise then you are deluded beyond derangement.

Of course they are. Again, I’m specifically speaking about FCP X. The people at Apple working on FCP X are committed to improving it. Now, if Apple decides to stop making computers and software and concentrate on phones then so be it. I don’t see that happening anytime soon.

Start at 10.0.4 or 5, that should be about 2 years.

June 4, 2014 at 10:05 pmSorry, but no. Nothing here adressses the many people left behind by FCPX. Apple has only made improvements based on the input of people they choose to accept. If you have ANY evidence to the contrary i’d love to see it.

June 4, 2014 at 10:11 pmIt’s like asking the iPhone team why they don’t put a hardware keyboard on it.
FCPX is going into a direction. It needs refinement. But it doesn’t need to be changed into something it isn’t.
You can ask the iPhone team to make a better software keyboard. To have extra features for their touch-keyboard. Asking for a hardware keyboard like all Blackberry’s had, is a wasted effort.
(and when Apple announced the iPhone, a lot of people kept asking for a ‘real’ keyboard also). -

Sorry, that’s ridiculous. Outside of a few specific workflows, the people “left behind” by FCP X have chosen that status. PIOP’s and the Library were specific things that were added in response to complaints. I’m sure there are more. Honestly, even if FCP X were perfect, anyone who has some sort of quasi-religious belief that it sucks will never like it. And I say that as someone who, at one point, did. The only reason I’m back up to speed with MC and Pr is because of that. And I’m glad I am, it adds perspective. But then I gave X another chance and discovered that Kool-Aide is actually pretty good. 🙂

June 4, 2014 at 10:31 pmI have not “chosen that status” as you say. I have tried, earnestly, to make this work for me. How dare you try to marginalize me?

I wasn’t specifically referring to you Tim, and I apologize if it came across that way. Seriously.
