FCP X Design Influences

[Tony West] “David, when you use X on a laptop do you use it in the dual viewer mode or single viewer mode?”
Hi Tony, I used FCPX for ingest and logging only, so single viewer mode works fine. I give most of the screen to the browser so that I can easily enter log notes for keyword ranges. Then Xto7 out to Premiere where I do my cutting. For me this is the best of both worlds! 🙂

[David Lawrence] ” For me this is the best of both worlds! :)”
Sounds good

[Tony West] “X with that single viewer setup seems better suited for a small screen than a 2up that would make the canvas even smaller on a laptop.”
You’re right, FYI Premiere Pro can also be configured for single viewer.

Do you use tracks? 🙂

[James Ewart] “Really superb boots and worth the extra money for sure.”
I will have to check them out, thanks James.

The NLE talk is what gets me in the door, but it’s the puns that keep me in my seat. 😉

So you HAVE heard some guitar stud opine that he could have PLAYED it better on a different brand? Essentially arguing that it’s the flavor of guitar that makles the real difference rather than the talent and training of the player? Strong opinions about gear, sure. But I’ve never heard or read about somebody arguing that a great lick could have been “better” if only Les Paul or Rodrigo y Gabrialla had used a different brand. If they have the talent seems to me people let them play what they like. But maybe you folks know better and secretly watchers are wishing that Clapton had done that swirling genius solo inside the jam dreck that was “Do what you like” on some other box. Seems unlikely to me, but whatever.

Isn’t that the root cause of people having strong opinions about gear though? The firm belief that certain gear makes the end product, and/or the process by which the end product is created, significantly better. Even if everyone agrees that the end result is awesome the supporters will say the gear played a role in enabling the awesomeness to happen while the detractors will say the awesomeness was achieved in spite of the gear being used.

“I don’t understand the point you are trying to make with all this, are you saying people think you can do better edits with other NLE’s?

Steve, when X first came out, Apple really got taken to task for that single viewer (I had to get used to it myself) But did they partly have laptop editing in mind when they did it, and wanting to make that canvas bigger on that small screen?
Was it a smarter move then we first thought in this context and did it influence others
because this[Steve Connor] ” FYI Premiere Pro can also be configured for single viewer.”
Also, those CCs make working on that smaller screen easier also.
