Call me crazy if you want… but I know an imminent extinction when I see one. :)
From reading the posts on here about the new Premiere Pro, I’m really starting to get the feeling that if this thing lives up to the hype, the days of FCP 7 are going to be numbered once it ships. People are chomping at the bit to get their hands on this thing, and I’ve seen comments from some about how it’s the first NLE they WANT to use MORE than FCP 7. Things are about to get real interesting if you ask me…

Just to point that wasn’t PP, but Apple the culprit.
You know? I was about to retire from video editing, and FC’s EOL has speeded up the process.
I will end up my editing career with FC.

FCP X hasn’t been mentioned in nine threads now. Time to call this forum PPro or not: The Debate

Amen to that – seriously tho – it really looks good doesn’t it?

Just out of curiosity, what specific things makes Premiere CS 7 more viable than CS 6? When I look at the feature list it looks good, but not revolutionary. What are the tipping point features? The only ones I can think of is Project Browsing and DNxHD.

Brett,
It probably differs from person to person.
For me it’s viable audio mixing (with support for control surfaces thrown in as a bonus) and viable relinking (I hope) which would have been a nightmare otherwise.
With those two “tipping point” features, I’m willing to test it under scale duress and explore workflow on future projects.
Franz.

I agree with Franz, it varies from person to person. I believe the most excited with this release are the switchers from other NLEs, me being one of them. CS 5.5 didn’t seem right for me at the time, but with the release of CS6 I was all in. Even tho I missed a lot of features from FCP & Avid there was a lot to like about CS6. Now with the soon to be released CS7 it seems Adobe has added many of the tools available in other NLE’s and added even more of their own to the mix. For long time Premiere users there are now additional tools to use in the edit. Thats Great. For those of us who switched from other NLE’s, Thats Awesome! We now have familiar tools we have long missed from our previous NLE and some new ones to learn as well.

[Brett Sherman] “what specific things makes Premiere CS 7 more viable than CS 6”
Re-linking, audio patching, clip mixing, clip sync indicators, ProRes and DNxHD native, along with some minor but pleasant timeline improvements – through edits, track nudging – plus improved color correction through integration with Speed Grade along with the addition of a “script sync” feature makes it fairly impressive.
It’s also become clear that Adobe thinks the high end video editing segment is up for grabs and is committed to doing what it takes to own it. It’s nice to feel wanted.

Really. I’m trying to figure out why all this PP talk is here instead of in the…I don’t know…PP forum perhaps?
I’m not anti-PP at all (in fact I plan on learning it) but I come here to read about FCPX.
