Will FCX be around for a while?

Yeah, Simon, I totally meant they literally copy/pasted code from one to the other. DAMN! Got me! So brilliant. :-))

But if you didn’t mean that, what did you mean? I’m genuinely interested.
[Robin S. Kurz] ” Shake, Soundtrack, even Color are still alive within FCP X. … The technology of all of the above is factually within FCP X.”
Let’s take Shake. Which parts of Shake are “factually” “still alive within FCP X”? It’s quite a bold claim.

No, you’re of course right Simon. I made it all up. My bad. Just “hearsay”.

[Herb Sevush] “Only if your a newbie,”
Wrong. If you’re an “old-bie” FCPX can still be learned very easily. The tough part is to let the old way go and use the software the way it was designed. Don’t try to learn FCPX by forcing your old Premiere or Avid habits or mindset on it. That is a recipe for frustration

[Bill Davis] “Seriously, OF course there are types of gigs where any one particular strategy will fail.”
This whole sub-thread started when Joe commented on what he perceived as a shortcoming with FCPX’s implementation of multicam. Then, because you can’t have anybody criticize your little baby, you gave him a “strategy” that only fits a narrow range of “gigs” – and now your all sensitive about it. In Ppro you can do it your way, my way, or anybodies way – there is no compromise necessary, but you can’t acknowledge that so you have to come up with a lot of nonsense.
[Bill Davis] “I’ll change everything I do now, because I’ve finally realized that everyone shoots 14 cameras and follows steaming shaky pots in kitchens whilst clinging to a technique that’s usefull sometimes – but I use it always cuz We X editors are just that dumb.”
I’m sorry your intimidated by the idea of shooting pans in a kitchen — such an elitist thing to do. Would you like my example better if I talked about turds in a toilet bowl shot with 2 iPhones – same result.
[Bill Davis] “Herb, you still have NO experience with X. So keep focused on how it will never do what you want it to do. And for sure keep telling the guys that use it daily – how it works – cuz that’s fun to read”
And you apparently have limited experience with stabilizers and how they work – and how they often don’t work. And the guy that was complaining about how X works wasn’t me – Joe is an X editor. And nothing is more fun to read than you blowing your stack as you try to explain why X editors aren’t really pure enough to comment on the software they use because they don’t have the Bill Davis certificate of sycophancy.
