Premiere Pro Workspaces

[Steve Connor]

[Bill Davis] “Yeah, I should start posting over in the Premiere Forums about my edits and how much wickedly faster so many database driven operations and auditions and Roles exports makes repetitive work in X.

I’m sure it will be received in the spirit of open discussion and the free flow of ideas to help everyone improve.

And certainly not seen as any sort of crass X promotion.
“

Sadly Bill, I think you may be the ONLY person left on here who imagines it’s an FCPX only forum. There actually IS an FCPX only forum on here which I can’t help noticing that you hardly ever post on?

Perhaps some of your excellent insight on FCPX would be warmly received there as well?

And if we’re talking about crass promotion, I can’t help noticing that every post of yours has a short ad for your product on your sig?

Thanks Oliver,

This was extremely helpfull for me as I have been forced into using premiere at the shop Im working at the moment.

I was really struggling with the UI because it felt like I never had enough screen real estate to accommodate how I would setup a normal workspace in Avid. Im on dual 24 inch screens and I usually like to have my source records rather small, so my timeline can be most of the screen as I do alot of sound design usually, but I like my timeline and source/record on the same screen.

My standard – “do work” Avid timeline usually looks like this. Doesnt seem like I can get the right screen/ timeline ration PPro but Ive been playing around with some of your configs and i like the tabbed Source/Record Single Monitor setup you got going.

Of course it wouldn’t, It’s a Premiere Forum.

This is not a strictly FCPX forum, its a debate forum and one of the most informational and entertaining forums about NLE’s period and there is one specifically for FCPX so Im not sure what the issue is?

[Bill Davis]

Then simple fix.

If this is to be a place of neutral NLE discussion – Petition Tim and/or Katheryn to Re-brand it as such – and just REMOVE those pesky words Final Cut Pro from the forum title.

Just be honest.

As long as SEARCH brings people interested in FCP X HERE – walls of posts that DO NOT even pretend to relate to X – weaken the forum brand, IMO.

Oh, EXCUSE me.

That “Final Cut Pro – the Debates” string of public-facing characters up there clearly confused me.

I didn’t realize that clear communication is now expected to require a deep knowledge of forum history and tradition – well beyond what the ACTUAL English language can convey.

Maybe this will spread and people will become delighted to go into “The Taco Shop” and find a menu featuring mostly Lasagna?

The forum is titled FCPX Debates. That means we debate the pros and cons of FCXP as opposed to worshiping FCPX. If you want them to start a forum called Lets All Worship FCPX then make a feature forum request.

[Bill Davis] “Maybe this will spread and people will become delighted to go into “The Taco Shop” and find a menu featuring mostly Lasagna?”

What should people expect if they went into a shop called Tacos and More? Should that shop serve only tacos or should they serve more?

Thanks for the article, Oliver. Wouldn’t it be nice if X allowed such customizations?

Now the thread is squarely on topic.

[Bill Davis] “Maybe this will spread and people will become delighted to go into “The Taco Shop” and find a menu featuring mostly Lasagna?”

Said with a straight face on a cow-themed website which has nothing to do with animals in a discussion about a company called Apple that doesn’t sell fruit and another company called Adobe that doesn’t offer any earthen building materials.

[Bill Davis] “I should start posting over in the Premiere Forums”

I did post over on the adobe CC debate forum the other day, commenting on how lousy the upgrade process is (for me). It was a desolate place over there. Even Andy wasn’t there! Only one person came to the “defense of the Adobe flag’: Oliver!

Dude, you on the Adobe payroll now? ????

Lets move these threads over there and see if we can rouse any Pr users out of their GUI-induced comas. ????

(All in jest, of course…)
