“it is looking more and more like a complicated non pro application to me.
Clever ways of keeping a tidy timeline, but with no thought of the intuitive nature of editing, if you know what I mean”
Have you used the Audition feature in FCPX? No other NLE that I know of has that. I’m doing my second feature film on FCPX and very much disagree what you’re saying about the “intuitive nature of editing”. I came from film editing, went to Avid 1991 and to FCP 2001. In between and after have used Media 100, Lightworks, Heavyworks and Premiere Pro. The FCP X is as close to “intuitive nature of editing” as I know. And much more.
