[Bret Williams] “Interesting way to look at it. But I don’t see changes to a compound clip as data flowing back from the sequence to the event browser.”

I’m not surprised. It’s the most common problem of experienced editors having a tougher time “seeing” some of the the ways the new systems function because they’re conditioned to “thinking” in terms of how older style software did things.

BTW, nothing I’m discussing says that my way of “seeing” how X works is superior to anyone else’s. It’s simply my mental chalkboard that helps me keep the program’s functions making sense.

I will say that I’ve become firmly convinced that ANY time I spend judging ” X operations in the exclusive context of how they compare to Legacy – is nearly a total waste of time.

For me, it would be like owning a killer sports car – and constantly thinking about how it compares to the half-ton truck I were driving in 2011.

What’s the point?
