Shawn, I think you’re spot on. Historically, we’ve been the bread and butter of people like you and we certainly don’t want to stop delivering great tools to you.
From a business perspective, I think Apple sees this as the larger market and perhaps that’s some of the motivation for their direction. Of course only Apple knows for sure.

[David Roth Weiss] “I gotta say, whoever named Rubadub should get the best name award for an app at Adobe if there is one.”
Hey David – I totally agree! It is a great name!

[Michael Gissing] “Why put this software in an edit tool? It needs to be in the software that is being used to record the ADR sessions so that sync and performance can be checked before sending the fixed files back to the edit.”
Good point. Adobe does make an audio product called Audition. Perhaps it will show up there.

Hey Bill,
Thanks for the response – I appreciate it!
At the basic level, we believe that building the right tool has broad appeal and that focusing on a mix of everyday and high-end features is the right approach for us. Up until recently, you would have said the everyday editor was a Premiere Pro editor as that has been our core for many years. We want to continue to serve them even as we focus on making the tool more acceptable in the high-end. A good feature isn’t necessarily a high-end feature – it’s one that everyone uses. That defines our direction.
Regarding the switcher campaign. Totally accept your input as valid. Our focus is trying to include a right value for lots of different customers. Again it’s customer centric. Old Adobe customers, new ones, competitive switchers, etc. As a result, we do have a lot of options and if that’s a turnoff, I can’t fault you.
Cheers,

I have to agree with Bill on this one (and I am an Adobe employee) that going with Adobe on an unannounced feature doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. 😉
That said, I do think it underscores what Adobe is about and how we’re different: we WANT to COMMUNICATE with our users. This isn’t Adobe’s marketing team being super aggressive, this is Adobe being super open to inform you and allow you to make decisions that benefit you. (Get the emphasis on ‘you’?)
Bill – once we feel the product is so strong, we won’t make any new versions. 😉
As for RED, they were ‘marketing’ for Apple if you recall but we’ve worked with them in the same open fashion as we do with our customers and RED saw the superior RED workflow with us and have gotten behind it because it is good for their customers too.
Dominic – I’m with you, it is a very cool feature and I hope it makes it into a version soon but I don’t honestly know. Fingers crossed!

I think that what Liam was responding to was your statement about frustration with rendering. In that context, Premiere Pro has been the $200k sports car for some time.

I thought FCP 6 had XML export up to type 4?
Premiere Pro will read XML type 4 no problem.

[Davee Schulte] “Does this mean that they will ONLY work with Adobe moving forward, or simply that they are also working with Adobe in addition to FCP & Avid??”
Boy, there is no good way to answer this question…. 😉
I simply don’t know since this is so new. Their products are about interoperability, so I can’t see a scenario where this would change.

MEW is pretty nice and they’re teaching Premiere Pro a lot.

I’ll just chime in and say that we’re very happy to be working with Harry and Wes. We’ve had a long time relationship that we hope to further even more now.
