    Why would you want tracks back? That’s crazy talk.

    Bill I agree. There are some features/fixes that I want but not that many.

    1. Loudness control to meet broadcast standards.
    2. When selecting a range and ducking audio, keyframes need to be the same distance whither the range is long or short.

    I know someone else mentioned tracks. I would actually like to see those. I am serious and don’t even think about calling me Shirley! In all honesty, why not video lanes? You can have all the titles and graphics in one with everything else in another.

    Would like to see Baselight for FCP X. Resolve still has several things to iron out. What about a node based way of adding effects?

    That is my list. Oh wait, we could have Tim Wilson show up to give us words of inspiration.

    [Steve Connor] “Seamless integration with Resolve?”

    Out of interest, do you not use Color Finale?

    I would have thought CF was the perfect fit for most FCP X users who wanted Resolve-style control over colour but didn’t want to roundtrip.

    There are a lot of high profile case histories where CF has been used more than successfully for the final grade.

    Color Finale has been conceived very much with advanced professional workflows in mind and it’s very hard to fault. (Much as I would like to …!)

    [David Mathis] ” In all honesty, why not video lanes? You can have all the titles and graphics in one with everything else in another.”

    Because you would then have to come up with a system for compositing, like nodes or some sort of layer order descriptor that wouldn’t necessarily follow the lanes (and would have to reorder when not in lane mode).

    And then you’d have to describe the descriptor in FCPXML so that other programs wouldn’t botch the layer order in layered track system.

    Probably not impossible.

    [Simon Ubsdell] “but I’m finding it hard to discover an effect that doesn’t come with built-in masking, both “Shape Mask” and “Color Mask”.”

    It would be nice to have it in Transform.

    [Scott Witthaus] “More seamless integration with Motion and Logic. Buy Affinity and integrate.”

    Now you are talking but will BMD introduce a photo/graphics program first?

    I was going to give it a try soon. I have heard good things about it

    Wow Bill, if some of those features that Oliver listed were implemented, more people might take X a little more seriously and more people might use X. Good thing no? A lot of those things, like timecode views and UI customizations and dupe detections are basic and would go a loooooong way.

    There’s gotta be something you wish X could do or did differently.
