adding my voice to the mix…. I use vegas a lot, have done since v2 & just bought v10 to run under b/c on this imac. also have FCStudio7. for various reasons, research not the least of them, I’ve done some of the work in each, & at the moment, vegas is winning.
this business of the audio waveform display is the main reason I dislike FCP. I can’t see any reason to use it at all, in fact… I have just this minute talked myself into finishing the project in vegas. damn, that felt good. an actual decision.
much of the footage is HD, from one of those $500 consumer HD camcorders that uses cards. vegas loads these natively, quite happily carving up the mpeg. FCP insists on making an intermediate format, which takes up loads of room.
but most of all- I’m trying to sync up three cameras by examining the audio. I can’t help it- that’s the way I work. but FCP is making this impossible with its constant redrawing.
yes, off to bootcamp & vegas 10.
