    I regularly interview freelance editors in the LA market looking for work in Reality TV. I always make a point of asking them about “X”. “Do you know it?”, I ask. “Do you like it?, I enquire. “Do you know anyone who uses it?”

    Inevitably, they make a face like someone just farted!

    That’s a fact!

    This OP is so funny. He actually believes that by airing his own failings with FCPX, he is doing everyone a favor. Thanks, but no thanks. FCPX does EVERYTHING I need in a modern EDL, and I make good money with it.

    LA certainly is a great barometer of the rest of the world.

    Think of it this way… just stop caring about XML, audio levels, standard color correction .. in ANY of the top NLEs and you suddenly gain that same efficiency of FCPX 🙂

    Thanks Mark, as ever, for your stirling and unbiased opinion.

    If you’d asked people the same question about Premier 5 years ago (and maybe sooner) I’d wager you’d have gotten the same response.

    [Daniel Frome] “just stop caring about XML,”

    Seems to work fine to Resolve and logic for me

    [Daniel Frome] “audio levels”

    Are you saying you can’t set correct audio levels?

    [Daniel Frome] ” standard color correction “

    How terrible, the colour board isn’t standard, despite the fact it works as well as other NLE’s CC

    There’s nothing we can’t argue about on the FCPX COW Forum

    [Marcus Moore] “Did I have a stroke? Is this 2011”

    Looks like it

    guess you have never heard of how resolve or pro tools for finishing and you’d use them with FCPX?

    Posts as such from the OP (and a few others) are so far out in that they air their own personal failures assuming the entire industry is in agreement, that I can’t help but think they’re being “encouraged” from other sources to spread FUD.

    I guess one would have to believe Sam Mestman has never used or helped install FCPX anywhere and that Alex Van Hurkman really wants to waste his time at an event for FCPX based services in Los Angeles, where everyone resolutely refuses to use the FCPX “toy.”

    Surely these are misguided people opening in a city that despises this NLE.

    Or maybe they have some idea of the functionality and potential market for FCPX the OP can’t fathom (and the OP tries to persuade others of it).

    I’m no grammatical expert but something isn’t quite right with that sentence.
