    No I’m not ignorant of that fact I deliver tape and file based daily but to me it seems that if this where truly for professionals removing such an important asset like bars & tone doesn’t make sense. I use FCS 3 and FCX every other day and I find that all the things they have yet to implement in FCX like these small factors make x a prosumer program more than apple trying to make a professional edit program easier for us they made a consumer editor, iMovie, more advanced and called it final cut. I have to deal with these small changes all the time and there is always a way around it or no particular need for it but to me it seems absolutely counterintuitive to remove the basic necessities. Even though most of my programs are delivered file based I still get requests for color bars and its frustrating that I had to export bars and tone from final cut 7 and import into x. I have a apple masters in final cut studio and to go from that to x was a serious disappointment it has some powerful aspects but it’s out weighted by the basic processes they excluded. I do not feel like apple took 7 and made it easier they took imovie and made it more advanced rather than meld the two together.

    Final Cut Pro x is not a professional editing system and you can’t tell me otherwise. I edit for broadcast and I need bars and tone why the *&^% is it not in the new fcx. Another reason fcx is not a professional edit system….where is batch render? Why can I not send more than one timeline for export using compressor. No matter what anyone says this is not a professional editing system when they exclude MAJOR things a professional editor needs. I despise this program seriously NO BARS & TONE I need that for every project I do

    Holy crap it’s almost perfect because the title is set to the duration of the audio statement, it’s damn near perfect in timing of the highlight each word. But it’s highlighting the punctuation, I don’t have motion 10.0.5 so I can’t open it yet until the update is done. How did you make that, what perimeter in motion did you set?

    I dont know if I can even add screen grabs but no its not the root of drive. The drive goes as follows…

    Syner(Drive)>Bully/Final Cut Events/Final Cut Projects/Syner>(My files are in Bully)

    Bully>23 folders in that list Final Cut Events & Projects

    My information in in the Projects Folder>21 Folders in this

    Is it possible that if I where to reorganize everything properly because this post house dosen’t know how to media manage this could help? does the fcs events need to be the root
