Audio Only cross fade in X
-
[John Rofrano] “the show was largely a demo of painting and long dissolves between angle shots of a particular technique always had the audio dialog disconnected.”
But again, that’s not really what we’re talking about. That audio won’t have come in synched to the video, would it? Once we’re talking about disconnected audio—which clearly makes sense in the case you describe—then it’s out of the discussion in this context. It’s autonomous. And at the same time practically no difference to how any other NLE would deal with it (and it’s fades).

So I really have to wonder why you’re even here in this forum, other than to sing the praises of other/your NLE and continuously proclaim how insufficient and useless FCP X is.
Forgive me as I am sure Herb can answer for himself better than I but I think Herb is here to keep his eye on things on the other side of the fence and contribute to the healthy debate.
Wouldn’t it be dull and actually useless if all anybody did here was blow smoke up Apple’s arse and sing the praises of FCPX (which does have its deficiencies after all).

True. At that point it was more like B-Roll. It’s actually a multi-camera edit where we have several cameras at different angles to the the painter and the canvas. Bad example I guess.

[John Rofrano] “I get the feeling that in Herb’s case, what you see is often not connected to what you hear and so disconnecting video and audio makes sense so that the audio experience, which often requires continuity, is not affected by the video experience which can be temporally different at times on purpose.”
Yes.

Since I edit primarily multicam, it’s not a bad example at all, in the context of this discussion.

Huh?? Where is anybody doing that? And how do polemic retorts that are merely based on personal bias and not based in any actual experience or knowledge of the topic at hand contribute to any type of constructive discussion?
Spoiler: it doesn’t. Some would in fact simply call that “trolling”.
But hey, if it does, I’ll be sure to subscribe to all the NLE forums that I know nothing about (other than maybe a few screenshots and/or YouTube videos) and tell everyone there what a useless piece of crap they’re using. Because, you know, *I* don’t need/like/get it. What other measure or “truth” could there be?
Should be fun, no doubt.

[Herb Sevush] “Yes.”
No. Because what he describes doesn’t apply to the “problem” at hand. As he said, bad (i.e. non-applicable) example, sorry. Multicam is an entirely different subject on its own. Something I’d say X does exponentially better than any other NLE on the market btw. But that, too, is entirely OT.

First of all, nothing relating to editing is OT on this thread, or on any thread in this forum. Every couple of months someone wants to change the name of this forum to reflect it’s diversity and while I’ve never subscribed to that notion, the one forum name I would suggest would be The Editor’s OT forum.
Second of all, since my livelihood depends on it, I would like to hear you enumerate on those aspects of X that make it “exponentially” better than any other NLE on the market. If true, even if just “slightly” better, it would give me a good reason to try X, which is something I’ve never had up till now. So please, enlighten me.

It’s great to have you back Robin where have you been?
We come here to debate. You come here to point score, put people down, argue and point score some more.
There is nobody on this forum whose contributions are consistently more antagonistic and unhelpful than yours.
I simply don’t think you “get” this place.

[Herb Sevush] “nothing relating to editing is OT on this thread”
I think maybe you need to differentiate between thread and forum. As far as the latter is concerned I’d most certainly agree.
[Herb Sevush] “So please, enlighten me.”
Sure. The trial version is free and there are endless resources on the subject to be had on the interwebs. Not something I need or care to do, thank you. Aside from that being entire OT as far as this thread is concerned, as I said.
If you want to disagree based upon actual knowledge on the subject, that’s certainly your prerogative.
