Avid says they are listening and help is on the way…..
Talked to some high up people at Avid todday about all my issues with the interface being different from Media Composer to Express….no transfer modes….FX and compositing being super clunky coming from AE, PS or FCP for that matter……not being able to see Express output unless I have a $1500 plastic Mojo that has unprofesssional RCA connections and so on and so on…..they assured me that they are aware and that help is on the way and that NAB will have some great things so stay tuned……only posting this to say Im glad at least that Im not crazy for wanting all of these common things in other programs…….and that they seem to be aware of all of it….now the ball is in their court to do something before they lose more market share…..

And trust me, they realize how dire things are becoming for them, when compared to some of the competition’s offerings. I mean come on, you can edit 2K files in Premiere Pro 2? Premiere has pretty much always been the king of prosumer editing NLE’s, and now it’s growing up fast. It’s not Avid, but it’s getting there.
I think NAB’s going to be HUGE this year. Reliable sources have leaked me a few rumors regarding new things coming from Avid…I think it’s going to be incredible. Apple FCP6 is supposedly being announced, too. I’ve seen what was supposedly the “beta” of it, but wasn’t able to see much. I did see the PPro 2 beta 2 months ago and was quite impressed. I’ve also heard Vegas 7 is coming, too. With all these great improvements, I expect HUGE advances in XPro 6, also rumored to be coming at NAB.
It’s going to be a long 2.5 months waiting for NAB, but be patient…it’ll get here.
