I have to agree with Rene here. So the guy got upset and vented a little, he didn’t attack anybody here, he just asked how others reacted to the upgrade price. Why are people launching personal attacks in response?
This is usually a very helpful and compassionate community. I enjoy that. Perhaps everyone is on edge right now. I know that yesterday’s news has me reeling. My daughter attends college in Virginia. Please, let’s get back to treating each other with the usual CCOW respect and insight. That second C stands for COMMUNITY.

I understand your frustration. A couple of thoughts:
If you purchased your present system I assume it will do what you need to be done. I see posts here with people still asking questions about FCP 3, 4, etc. which they are still running. It does what they need to get done. So while there are great new features in V.6, there’s no reason you have to go out and buy it right away.
I used to edit on a Media 100. The annual upgrade/support fee was, if I recall, about 1400 bucks at the time. If you didn’t pay up you got no support, no upgrades. Every year!
I’ve owned FCP 5 since August 05. I’ve gotten what, half a dozen upgrades since, all free except for about $50 bucks for the 5.1 crossgrade. I have no problem with paying 499 for this extensive update.
That being said, a sliding scale based on recent purchases like you suggest would certainly keep folks in your position happier. That would have been nice when they came out with faster, sharper screen powerbooks for less money about six weeks after I bought mine!

[rene hazekamp] “I’ve a very flexible capture tool for fcp (2 to 6), I call him/ her trainee.”
What!? Apple doesn’t provide a Trainee with every FCS2? Those cheap so-n-sos. Avid does, don’t they?
Very funny post Rene, thank you. While the “LOL” acronym is way over used on the web, I really did laugh out loud.
Off to the Espresso bar,

Sure!
Search the final cut pro forum with keywords “scrolling text”. I got 88 hits from that search and I know there have been many posts with suggestions for this.
Hit the Search button above. Set the search parameter for All Active Posts and make sure you choose only the Apple Final Cut Pro forum.

There is logging software that will take an xml file of the bins. They could even watch small preview movies of the clips on a computer, or you can print out the resulting catalog that will mirror the project bins you’ve exported. Clips can have thumbnail frames on the hard copy too.

There are several hours worth of training about audio in FCP done by Larry Jordan on Lynda.com. Here’s a list of their FCP titles:
https://movielibrary.lynda.com/html/modListing.asp?pid=37If that link doesn’t work you can just search by product. FCP is in the pop up list. You can buy a subscription for $25/month, no minimum required. You’ll have access to all of their training libraries.
