[Bill Davis] “and the same one people who don’t actually edit in X keep saying is “underpowered and lame” all over the internet.”
Could you please link me to such a quote ? It should not be hard since you claimed it is all over the internet. Having said that I don’t see people saying X is under powered. I do see people saying Premiere Pro uses old laggy outdated code. I’ve seen people make those comments right here on the Cow. I have also seen many people claim Adobe needs a total rewrite of the code but I don’t see the same thing said about FCPX. Many people in 2011 claimed you needed a $7500.00 work station in order for Premiere Pro to edit AVCHD in real-time. In 2014 the buzz was that you needed a $7500.00 to edit 4K in real-time using Premiere Pro. Both statements were incorrect. I can show a video of my mediocre $800.00 system editing several layers of 4K with each layer having several filters in real-time using Premiere Pro but when Premiere Pro does it, it just not impressive. Why is it impressive if FCPX does it but Premiere Pro needs a total rewrite of the code when it does the exact same thing?

Kinda doesn’t look all that “underpowered and lame” here – huh?”Who said it was?

I don’t have a high-end camera to test out how the metadata works in Premiere Pro. Maybe someone else will.

It really depends on what you want to do. For some a breakout box and rackmount gear is needed for others it is not. I like to have my BMD Shuttle for working with interlaced video clips but the equipment I have may not be needed for others. Some people need to capture analogue video tapes others do not.
Below is a video of my audio and video gear. Perhaps others will post their setup as well. I have a couple other videos on my channel that explain why I use the A/V gear I have.

If you start watching the video below at 12:40 it might be what you are looking for.

[Jeremy Garchow] “*I hope you don’t use it as an example of the full (or empty) capabilities of FCPX. You asked for a quick demo, I provided without much thought. You can do what you want with it, but make the comparison fair. I would much rather learn about Premiere’s text capabilities, rather than FCPX’s 3D shortcomings. Price does not include tax, title, license, or delivery.”
I think you will happy with the end result. I think other people will like it as well.

Can I use your video clip above in my titling demonstration video? I can do my video without it but it would be nice to use your short video clip as a reference. If you can let me know either way I would appreciate it.

I was wondering if I could include your video clip in a video I am working on demonstrating Premiere Pro’s titling tools?

[Bill Davis] “For either party to get to tell the other that they must change their practices in order to be doing things “correctly” is more about defensiveness than it is about objectivity, IMO.”
I don’t think anyone stated Youtubers should outsource their videos for finishing. You have implied time and time again that FCPX can do everything. For some FCPX is all that is needed but for others that is not the case.
[Bill Davis] “The producer paying big bills for outside expertise may find those increasingly unacceptable as the bottom rises and more grading and audio skills move into the general editing population.”
[Bill Davis] “And the less experienced folk NEED to constantly build appreciation and knowledge about the value of traditional post processes.”
I agree but some folks are stuck thinking FCXP can do everything when other FCPX users have stated Apple should have a graphic design/photo program. Will BMD introduce such a program at NAB 2018? Should Apple introduce 3-D software? The 3-D titling system of FCPX would not cut it for my clients. I could either use FCPX and outsource or learn how to do 3-D animation myself. 10 years ago some projects could be done entirely in FCP and Premiere Pro. Other projects needed more than what either software program had to offer and the same is true today. Keep in mind Avatar made use of InDesing, Photoshop, Premiere Pro, AE and Illustrator because they used the Adobe products for flyers and posters. I agree that one man bands are here to stay but they cannot rely on just one editing program if they want to meet the needs of everyone.

People were doing YouTube videos long before FCPX without the need for handing of to a post production house for finishing. It is nothing new. Having said that why would a YouTuber higher a motion graphics artist or 3-D animator if it is not needed? On the flip side what if Justin Tse was asked to create the the next Avatar movie from start to finish. Do you think he could do it all using only FCPX? It should be easy to see every video project will require different software. Anyone who thinks all video projects can be done from start to finish using FCPX might want to rethink things. Having said that does anyone remember when I stated I thought the FCPX’s 3-D titles looked cheesy and I explained why? I later stated I like to use mattes and masks vs 3-D titles? Something Premiere Pro can do very easy. Having said that I did not see the 3-D titling of FCPX used in the video. Instead I saw some mattes and 2-D titles. So now key-framed 2-D titles and mattes are better than 3-D titles? If that is the case I think Premiere Pro might have and advantage over FCPX.
