[Thomas Nord] “Glad you’re enjoying it. You’re gonna love all the great things coming in this next update!”
What I’m really looking forward to is the greater ability to alter timelines after they are created.

[Lance Bachelder] “I’m loving it too though for some reason it runs so much better on Win 64 than OSX? I freeze up and crash hourly on a pretty fast Mac with GTX 680 and 32GB of Ram yet rarely on the PC?
Hoping the new rev fixes this weirdness…
“That’s a bummer. I’m doing okay on my Macbook Pro, though I do crash now and then. Reasonably rare, though (touch wood.) It could be a little snappier, and I get an intermittent audio crackle when I’m taxing the system with bussed audio, and am doing a lot of external monitoring. My guess is that more RAM and a faster system might cure my very slight woes, though the crackle could also be because of the USB audio device. Media Composer is a bit snappier on the same system, with the same externals. But, that just isn’t much to bitXh about. I love the audio set up. Its terrific to be able to bus several tracks of SFX down to one, and then further control it on the sub.

[Paul Neumann] “Not much debate over on the Creative Cloud thread. You either are totally against it or you’re not welcome.
“Now, that’s not entirely true. If you use CC, or don’t mind it so much, you become food on which to feed, or fuel to be burned. After all, you can’t play darts without the dartboard.

By the way, I’m quite enjoying finding my way through PrCC. I’ve had a very pleasant time cutting with it.

[Thomas Nord] “Sorry for the delay. We just needed a bit more testing time for all the features we’ve got in this release. Should be very soon now. 🙂
“Cool. Just curious about what’s what. I may have a bit of downtime later in the week and it seemed like the right time to play.

[Walter Soyka] “I think it’s worth reiterating that we are constantly talking here about the price of the low-spec systems, but the performance of the absolute highest-spec system.
“Indeed.

[Marcus Moore] “TOTAL- $11,000. If my figures make any sense. More than I thought, but I might be high in some areas and low in others. Very difficult to say with any certainty.
“I agree that they might be able to offer it for 11 or 12, if they were inclined to, but I’ve never known Apple not to charge a premium for everything from RAM to GPUs. Their higher end Mac Pros have always been relatively expensive compared to the cost of components. So, while they might be able to accomplish it, I will be surprised–albeit pleasantly–if they do. Gentleman’s bet, then, eh?

[Andy Branner] “[Steven J Dorr] “Please change this forum title to, “Apple FCPX The Debate,” and drop the, “or Not.””
I completely agree and you actually beat me to the punch. I was going to request the exact same.
The subtext may have had a certain grain of legitimacy to it TWO YEARS ago, but at the very latest since 10.0.6 it just reeks of childish, ad hominem troll bait. Suggesting that FCP X somehow hasn’t found its way into a LOT of studios big and small and using the title itself as some sort of “proof” of FCPs lacking something (yes, I was literally trolled by someone asking exactly that “so why is FCP X the ONLY forum on the Cow with a title like that?? Njeh njeh njeh” as if to legitimize his otherwise extremely weak position).
“Okay. Here’s the thing: the person you want to get in touch with is Tim Wilson. He runs the COW. Over the last couple of years, many of us have agreed the name could use a change. If you look back, you’ll find this conversation is had every few months. Even some of us who are lukewarm about X, have agreed that there are possibly better names for this forum, which has become a general NLE discussion lounge. Over a year and a half ago, I was fully supportive of “Editor’s Lounge” or “The Green Room” or whatever, and letting the Techniques section become FCP X. Tim, however, likes “Or Not,” probably because of the way it drives traffic. There really is nothing to debate, and nothing we haven’t heard before. Email Tim.

[Andy Branner] “TIA
:facepalm:”
Dude, I don’t know how to say this other than to say that you seriously need to look into some breath mints.

[Marcus Moore] “I can’t see it being near that much. I’m thinking closer to 8K, but we’ll just have to wait and see.
“I can’t quite imagine that, with the cost of the upper end GPUs and a 12 core, and 64 gigs of RAM. I think it has to be between 13 and 17.
This guy does a nice cost break down, which I largely agree with:
