[Simon Ubsdell] ” Premiere’s Overlay edit option allows you to do exactly what you are describing here.”
Can you post a link showing it Simon?

One does have to wonder what would have happened, had Apple actually released a vastly advanced FCP8, as well as FCPX. Fast forward 6 years and imagine a refined FCP “legacy” structure with full 64-bit horsepower, contemporary UI design, etc. Since FCP7 did things that you still can’t do in Premiere Pro, I would imagine FCP8+6yrs would also be more advanced than Premiere Pro today.
Under this hypothetical, would the industry have stayed with the legacy design and would FCPX have truly been DOA? Given that, I wonder if Apple also came to that conclusion and decided to only back one horse and force the issue. That would be an interesting topic to explore in the doc, but I doubt we’ll see that.

Some of think that’s exactly what FCPX is 🙂

Well, I can can see how one might think that. However, I was talking about a version that would have maintained things people liked about “legacy”, but also with the standard source/record, non-magnetic, track-based paradigm. Plus maybe roll in a lot of Color, too. (Yes, I know, dangerously close to Resolve 14!)

Did you make that just to answer Tony’s question? Nice!

[Andrew Kimery] “I would’ve loved to have been a fly on the wall for that and other moments such as they first time they showed it to select group of influential industry insiders and editors, “
I was there. One hundred people in the Apple theater on Campus. When the lights came up, Larry Jordan described it best, “Jaw dropping!”. Now that can mean one of two things: OMG or WTF. The debate continues to this day as to which version of”Jaw Dropping” you saw.

[Tony West] “You are leaving out the step of patching a track. “
Sorry for not being clear, that’s what I meant by choosing where audio and video go separately (ex. you have to patch video to V1 and audio to A7 and A8). So you when said you don’t make horizontal and vertical choices in X, you meant you don’t have to worry about track patching?

Partly to answer Tony’s question and partly to promote this feature to Premiere editors who don’t in general seem to know it’s there.
Shame there isn’t a keyboard shortcut for it (why are there so many odd lacunas in the shortcuts system?) because I use it all the time now.
Who wants to bother with patching?! There is nothing good about patching.

Thank’s Simon, I wasn’t aware of that function.
