FCP 10.1.2 Where are you?

squishing bugs, optimizing, squishing bugs, optimizing etc. etc. The longer they take, the better IMO. 😉

And maybe adding tracks? (Cough).
Seriously, if it was optional, would you turn your nose up? Just wondering how ideologically committed to the present paradigm many of you are if tracks would hasten the adoption by the many that have fled because of their absence.

Tracks do come in handy on occasion but sometimes they get in the way. I think some type of hybrid timeline would be nice but not likely going to happen anytime soon.

One area that can be improved is in color correction. At present there are no individual RGB sliders or curves. No ability to key frame color correction either. I have used the blade tool to cut up a clip as an alternative but not exactly efficient.

That being said, in its present form it is a solid editing application. My two cents, whatever it is worth.

Lol. It already is optional. Secondary storylines are FCP X tracks. IF you need everything in one line for visual organization, they work great. And (other than mixing) that’s really the only thing about tracks “missing” in FCP X. 🙂

And while we’re getting tracks in X, lets make sure our cities install barrier style guardrails between the lanes of all our public streets – because requiring everyone to move around in strictly segregated, fixed width and consistent lanes is awesome.

Time to head over to Cafe Press to do some t-shirts emblazoned with “The Magnetic Timeline – edit sans training wheels.”

Or maybe the team has been pulled to work on Aperture Pro X 😉

Very possible. I just made up a rumor that they’re adding an advanced slide show editing timeline!

I would be disappointed to see tracks return. It works very well for me at the moment, but I’m more than willing to admit that improvements need to happen before it’s a “no excuses” alternative to track-based workflows.

I see some really promising ideas with Roles, and I hope Apple follows thru.

Now that compressor has been updated properly- Aperture is the last of the ProApps that needs a serious overhaul. But I haven’t heard a peep about Aperture development for quite some time.

110 days this Tuesday. Apple’s guidance is 3-4 months.

This month, I’d wager. Before WWDC.
