Many steps forward, and I’m happy
Playing with FCPX 10.1 since yesterday. Haven’t used all the new features yet, but I can say it is many steps forward from 10.0.9. Let me count just a few of my favorite ways that I like thee:
The new library. Much better than the old way of separating projects, events, etc. I never understood the advantages of that.
Native .MTS support. I get a lot of DSLR footage, so this a good thing when clients messed up their AVCHD folders.
Improved performance. Who would say this is a step backward??
Hiding the browser and libraries. Yes! gives me more space on my 15′ retina.
Separate audio channel fade handles. Duh!
Show used media. On long projects, this is a time saver!
Just the tip of the iceberg why I love thee, FCPX 10.1.

I am satisfied but still no “Send To Motion” option. Perhaps that will be added soon. Still a very nice update and the best part, it is free!

Most of what Ty mentions is simply getting us back features from FCP7, and while they are appreciated, I can’t help but feel it’s time to move the ball forward of where the goal line was before we went backward with the first release of X.
Are we happy… of course. Could we be happier with new improvements? Of course.
