The idea that Apple is gonna kill FCP X anytime soon is ludicrous. It’s good to have Aindreas back though. 🙂

Or some people aren’t seeing the same lag. If I was seeing a 1-2 sec lag after hitting playback I’d be going crazy too. Nothing close to that here.

[Shane Ross] “There’s no way Apple will kill it.
“

Exactly. Look at what they’ve got in the content creation space. Logic X and Garage Band. Same app, different skin. Taking that into account, I’d bet more people are using “Logic” than any DAW on the planet. Same deal with Final Cut Pro and iMovie. Same app, different skin. I doubt any other NLE is even is the same ballpark as far as user base. And now, Photos. Which, it seems, can probably cater to both non-pro and pro in the same app. And remember, everyone who has access to Photos is using a beta. The *first* beta. The rest of us are only speculating based on seeing pictures/demos and using the iOS version. I’ll go out on a limb and say that it will have a lot more going on after it’s been out for a while.

As to FCP, if every “Pro” on the planet switched to another NLE today, “FCP X” would likely still have more users than any of them. Maybe more then all of them.

[Oliver Peters] “Who’s to say that Apple doesn’t keep FCP X as the main video tool and dump iMovie?”

iMovie *is* FCP X. And to Aindreas’ comment, as Noah said… Nope.

[Erik Lindahl] “I mean using “A/V Output” via a AJA och BMD interface.”

Ah… gotcha. I use a BMD MiniMonitor and, it’s not as bad as you describe… It’s a bit less responsive than with A/V out off for sure, though I’m also looping the signal through a machine room via a wyrestorm hdmi to ethernet converter and then back to the monitor in my bay,

[Erik Lindahl] ” Let’s hope Apple updates FCPX to make it usable with external video references”

You mean external (shared) sources? That’s all I use and it’s fine FWIW…

FWIW, I have mid-2012 Air that I cut stuff on fairly regularly. Nothing crazy, but it does run X and Pr pretty well. MC will run OK, though I haven’t tested with 8.3. I use a TB drive for media. So… cutting works fine, though the screen is tiny. Encoding/sharing/exporting? Sloooow. Fans kick up to full blast and it heats up.It eventually gets it done, but I’d be leery of using it for a mission critical gig. I Mean, I would, but it’d make me nervous. 😉 Do the MBP given a choice…
