Lightworks – As Popular As FCPX?

[Thomas Frank]

I am aware of this, but not sure how this changes that he console kick a$$?
The interface is new feels very linux like has some awesome features that A’s don’t have but still decision where made.
At this moment they where good decision. But when the Mac version comes will pop in the shop and see how it really works in a real live situation. The Demo at the NAB was cool and the EditShare guys are some of nicest people I have meat in this market.

Yes, that’s kind of what I thought. I used to work with Lightworks and that controller many years ago and given what I’m used to now I’d much rather use a conventional keyboard. It was very popular with hardcore Shark users way back when and that’s probably why they are making it available now. But it’s $3000 I definitely don’t need to spend. More than willing to kick in the 60 bucks a year though.
