Aindreas Gallagher “don’t you miss proper waveforms at all in FCPX? I detest those small, vector style interpretations of the waveform.”

I agree 100%. I much prefer the standard way where all the audio is in one part of the timeline, and all the video is in another. I don’t mess with the video section of the clip nearly as much as the audio, so it’s nice to have it out of the way.

I will say, though- one thing I DO LIKE about X’s waveforms, is how they dynamically change on-the-fly when you adjust the levels or keyframe them, and how they turn yellow then red when you raise the level too high. There’s a lot of instant feedback there that you don’t get in other NLEs.

But yeah, other than that it’s garbage.

Jon Barrie For win. Hold ctrl key and scroll 🙂

Is there a way to change it so it scrolls up and down by default, and sideways by holding ctrl? Scrolling up and down seems much more useful- I WOULD like the idea of scrolling sideways if it didn’t move so slow…

Yeah, sub-frame audio editing is nice to have- which is why Adobe added it to Premiere Pro… In 2003. 😉

If you’re transitioning between two contiguous pieces of the same video, you won’t see the dissolve- because the clip that’s fading in looks exactly the same as the one it’s replacing.

Chris Harlan Maybe to help make alien or robot voices or sweeten some other sci-fi sfx.

With that in mind, I’m surprised Apple didn’t put it out in the open front-and-center. It sounds like it would be a great companion to the “Alien Lab” preset in the color corrector. 😉

Tony West “For those who would never know of, or work with the ringshifter they wouldn’t have to look at it.

But maybe they did too good of a job hiding.”

I don’t know what a ‘ringshifter’ is, but it sounds interesting- and if it’s going to help improve the quality of my audio I’d rather it not be hidden from me…

Lance Bachelder “Have not had a chance to try yet on Mac. I still think FCP7 in a better NLE than CS6. Even though it is an old 32bit app it’s just better software in my opinion and I don’t think I would force my facility to switch unless every Editor was 100% on board. Even with the new 3-way corrector in Premiere I’m still gonna have to run Colorista or Looks – the color tools are still sub-par and Speedgrade is just okay.”

Out of curiosity, have you tried the new trim tools yet? What are your thoughts on those compared to FCP7?

I remember seeing this a while back. It was a good one…

WAIT- Doesn’t Fumar mean “smoke”? What is Bob trying to say here? 😉
