    7. The FCPX timeline may be frustrating, at times even painful, but no more painful that jamming a fork into an AC outlet (try it now).

    AC!? phi it’s only 110 volts, not painful at all! 🙂

    You want pain? Try going back to edit on Premier. I gotta do that soon for a client and I am dreading it!

    CS6 I understand. In two mini-docs (7-8 minutes) right now in Premiere CC 2014, and it’s quite a wonderful experience.

    It’s not bad. When I’m in Pr I keep X open with the same media. Finding stuff in X and then quickly locating it in Pr is much faster than trying to find stuff in Pr alone.. 😉

    Agreed. FCPX is the best logging tool ever. It’s a great accessory for cutting in Premiere 😉

    It’s not just the logging, but the ability to “visually” audition stuff. And, although we clearly disagree here, X is better to cut in too. ;-p But, if you’re forced to use Pr, you definitely need a copy of FCP X running in tandem to speed everything up. For what it does, it’s a pretty good deal for a Pr plugin. 🙂

    Yep! Along with Xto7 it’s a great way to organize! 😀

    I’ll second that!
