you don’t have to upgrade. i have a ten year old avid that runs circles around fcp. if i was content to keep editing standard def, i would never have bothered getting an fcp rig. i can stay with fcp 7 for at least a couple of years and see what happens with fcpx. my clients couldn’t care less what tools i use but if apple proves to be going off in some weird pro-sumer direction, adios baby!

i have to admit this one scares me a lot. i have been very slow at switching from avid to fcp precisely because of trim. i mean you can’t even see picture in fcp when doing audio trims! i sincerely hope that they are going to keep the existing trim tools in fcpx and improve them. if they add precision trim as an addition to fcpx, okay, but they don’t seriously think that a professional editor is going to edit picture and split track audio with that ridiculous thing they demoed. do they? please, don’t me go back to avid…

me, too! now, if i could just figure out a way to scrub audio while trimming, i might actually learn to like editing on fcp.
