[Chris Kenny] “We do deliver material for broadcast. I am entirely aware of this practice. I can also, however, imagine ways of providing this ability without having to rigidly structure audio tracks in the NLE. And I imagine Apple can as well”
Can you just admit that this is a huge flaw right now instead of “I imagine Apple can as well?” Why are audio tracks all of a sudden “rigid”? It works. Has been working nicely for many years. If you can’t add anything constructive don’t reply with nonsense. Please.

I think they don’t care about the uproar. They know the pros will move on and the critics will die off.

It sounds like it would be a nightmare to try and time out an hour long show.

If it’s anything like iMovie than it’s really not that special.

I honestly don’t care if they are deliberately abandoning the Pro market or not. But looking at Final Cut Pro X the way it stands today and with an uncertain future….our facility is switching all of our FCP edit suites to Avid. It was a pretty easy decision actually.

These are basic editing tasks for the broadcast industry. For Weddings, YouTube and Facebook…no.

I remember my first lesson on Avid and watching the instructor create a dissolve with a click of a button. Right then and there I knew linear editing was obsolete.
No “aha” moment with Final Cut X for me either.

I’m having a hard time grasping what you are saying. I think comparing editing to a spread sheet is weird.
All of the work that I do has a beginning, a middle and an end. In the end, the final product is a linear product. I’m not sure how working in a “relational database” creates a better work environment when in the end all I’m trying to do is create a story that is compelling and makes sense.

I don’t understand why expecting a drop in replacement is unreasonable.
I’m working with Photoshop and After Effects right now. Both are 64 bit CS 5.5. Both can open legacy projects. The platforms are the same as the originals. If Adobe did what Apple did, there would be a full blown riot. I don’t know how anyone can defend Apple.
We get it. You like them. I like Apple. But my brand loyalty only goes so far.
