    Speaking for at least some of the Chris’, your posts are brilliant!

    Why am I still here after accepting FCP’s death?

    A few reasons:

    1.) Keeping my eye on whether there is anything I can actually use X for, since it is cheeper than most plug-ins.

    2.) An intellectual interest in the debate over the value of X’s paradigm, and its usefulness as “the future” of NLEs.

    3.) As an available warning to the unwary who have, to that point, read only X advertising and fanboy fawning.

    4) For the sheer joy of the occasional song by Aindreas

    5) Because I hope a deep, LONG conversation about FCP X will be of value to the professional editing community, and bring focus to the years ahead.

    I guess I should ask, what with X being software full of magic beans, psychic powers, and really limited options so that you can’t hurt yourself, why would you need a forum? Why are you still here?

  • Thanks, Jonathan. I’m re-uping to Avid first, but I’m very interested in Premiere, as well. I’m just wondering how far away CS6 is.

  • Hey Tom, I’ve got production suite 5. What are the reasons for going 5.5? Or can I comfortably wait to 6?

    [Bill Davis] “The ISCII code and the clip – that’s all the broadcast industry want.”

    Definitely NOT true. I make regular file deliveries to the US division of a very large International Broadcaster, and they require B&T.

    [Bill Davis] “Look at any current page of modern station delivery standards. They want a content clip only. No bars, no tone, no slate. Just the file please.

    I don’t like it one bit either – but that’s the way it is.”

    True, I have mostly file-only deliveries for the last three years, but a surprising number of broadcast companies still want B&T. And, for many International deliveries, it is still a must.

  • I want my spiral slicer!

    [Ben Scott] “if you like sequences as a way to try things out

    create new compound clips in the events browser

    serves exactly the same function”

    That is not at all what I mean, Ben. But thank you for the suggestion.

  • Oh, and it promised to keep me from having to go “outside.”

  • But it is Professional! They said that so many times in the video! Plus, its got these camera shaky thingys, color-fixy things, and no tracks to get in my way.
