It was always a shame when Sigmund got a sunburn.

I’ll just slink away now…

If you stay within their workflow it is still the most solid NLE. And the trimming functions are without peer. (He covers his head for the incoming fusillade.)

I don’t see any reason for any fusillade. Although I prefer FCP X above anything else for the work we do, what you say is correct. I hope the relisting is successful for Avid.

I’m sooooo predictable 😉

Competition is good. While Avid work has dried up to nothing in my region, I wish them (and my friends who work there) the best of luck. Oh, and I bought a bit of their stock the recently. What the hell, right? 😉

I take no pleasure in folks losing their livelihood. And competition is a good thing. Without it there’s no reason to innovate.

Count me in as not being giddy. Hell, I bought V8 when it came out. The more the merrier. X is my main axe, but they all – X, 7, Pr, MC, R11(sort of…) – have their pro’s and cons. 😉

Plenty of people thought FCPx was dead on arrival, after that initial introduction. It was just shagged out after a prolonged sqauck, after pining for the fjords.

I think Avid is rethinking their business model.
Their handling of MC/Symphony and updates/upgrades were probably a large part of their problems. This for a company that really isn’t an NLE company anymore.
They’re services a small niche and if that’s their objective, they need to make it more profitable.
One might loosely compare them to what Grass Valley Group has gone through.
