Switched…then switched back?

It’s DAW 101. Since STP did this, just copy paste the code into X please. Thanks.

ah fair ball charlie. thanks for digging that out.

he did docs – they started on film (!) – he was never hugely specific, just recalled the steel recorders were seriously crazy machines at the time – rough guess late sixties equipment in irish television.

I was hanging tracks on those beasts as recently as the early-mid 90’s. We had DAW’s, automated consoles, and digital recorders but some people clung to mag film for quite a while. And yeah, those recorders could be terrifying at high speed when the film snapped or a reel flew off if it wasn’t secured properly. Ours were older, and bigger than the pic. Fun!

there you are – to recall, STP even pleasingly animated the bridge curves on the join. adobe does look, as ever, a tiny bit GUI janky.

although if you did have a dream, it would run to the tune of a committed team somehow visibly producing near nothing bar odds and ends with a carefully re-constructed file container media handling system for around two years now?

It seems really hard to believe that that has entirely occupied the minds of a profitable, intellectual mad house bleeding edge pro apps team.
for 24 months.

or this is just pages, and they’re playing cards. Or maybe there’s a pride thing, and it’s a swift situation.

[Aindreas Gallagher] “yes. sweet jesus kids – instead of a functioning edit point operation on the audio – you’ve doubled everything up and are working two separate pieces of audio.”

It looks like this.

Here’s the edit:

Audio Expanded and fade handles added at cut point:

You can also adjust the fade curves on each side of the edit independently:

You can then zip all that back up, and the fade handles will remain in relative position as you trim, roll, whatever else you want to do on the audio:

So, while you don’t have an “asymmetric dissolve” in the traditional sense, you do have a ton of control and capability in the corssfade. It’s a trade off, I guess?

[Charlie Austin] “f you mean he’s right in that you can’t put an asymmetric dissolve transition on an audio cut in X, yes. If you think he’s right in saying audio editing is somehow hobbled in FCP X because of that then both he, and you, are wrong.

EDIT: Not to say you can’t have that opinion, just, well… it’s not true. :-)”

It’s pretty hobbled for some very basic things 🙂

I’ll show you what I mean here: https://forums.creativecow.net/readpost/335/72034
