In my case, VideoWorks running on my 1984 beige original Mac.
Yes, I was “editing” stupid black and white sorta animations – but I WAS editing – timing and attaching one construction to another.And by that time, I’d already been rudimentarily moving graphic primitives around on my learner Timex Sinclair for a few years. That may be stretching the “editing” concept to the limits. But I think it’s totally fair on the beige 128k original Mac side.
FWIW.

[Oliver Peters] “Since Avid came out later than that, just exactly which NLEs are you guys referring to?”
Where was EMC in that timeline? After Avid? That’s my first NLE experience…

I think it was around the same time. I believe each claims to be first. Of course, there were numerous tape and disc-based systems before either.

According to this video by Jeff Krebs, EMC2 was first.

My memories of the old days of NLE systems involves a lot of crashes. It’s probably impossible for the young kids out there to conceive or imagine but at one time Mac computers weren’t very stable.
I worked on Media100 systems for a number of years before moving to Avid and those were glitchy days indeed.

Which seems interesting in the context of this thread. In my mind, the iMac/iMac Pro line is the direct descendent of the original all-in-one Mac.

[Oliver Peters] “No offense guys, and not to quibble, but 33 years ago is 1985. “
HA! In another universe, I can do math. You’re right. Whew! Now I don’t feel so old. Started with NLEs in 1995 (or maybe 1994). Analog video in 1985. Film a few years before that.
