    Correct. Color Finale does not run on the M1 Macs yet.

    You can get to Logic via FCPXML. Export an FCPXML for the project, open Logic Pro and import it there. Then bounce out the final mix or stem tracks to manually re-import into FCP. The caveat is that any speed adjustments made to sound in FCP (which FCP can handle) will not be adjusted in Logic Pro. So a “varispeed” effect with automatic pitch correction (which is what FCP is doing) has to be re-created in Logic.

    The way to deal with tweaks like that is to compound the project first. Then you can apply effects to an entire lane/role. In the scenario of assigning dialogue, music, effects roles, you would then effectively have 3 submaster lanes and could apply separate effects to each. Unfortunately it gets more complicated if you also need to apply master effects, but then dive back into an individual clip to make some adjustments to it. That’s one of the reasons a “roles mixer” is something many folks have been asking for.

    Never mind. They are where they are supposed to be. After an update for the additional content and waiting a bit, they showed up in the right place.

    All very true. Collaboration with other editors and freelancers is a key for everyone that isn’t working within their own sphere. Depending on the market and/or market segment, that’s still either Premiere Pro or Media Composer.

    Much the same applies to audio. If you are a mixer with experience and have an investment in Pro Tools, then Fairlight won’t convince you to shift – generally for the same reasons.

    Resolve is a great companion workflow tool in addition to being a good color corrector. For some, it’s becoming the primary tool. But I highly doubt that number of users (as editors) is close to that of FCP.

    FCP 10.5 is fine. However, I wouldn’t recommend upgrading to Big Sur, yet. While many have had good results, there are tons of compatibility warnings out there by plug-in, app, and peripheral developers reporting some issues with Big Sur. So it really depends on what software you are running.

    You might want to look at Boris FX Optics. It’s not cheap, but you get a subset of the Sapphire filters. It works with Photoshop, but also as a standalone application. It does way more than just lens flares, because it’s a complete photo processing/effects/manipulation application.

    I think the NLE that fits a person is more than just the fact that the layout is similar or it’s cheap or it’s an all one-in-one package. Some NLEs’ workflow and UI layout simply click better with one person versus another. So while Resolve is closest to Premiere Pro or Media Composer (or maybe FCP if you look at just the Cut page), that still doesn’t mean it will feel sufficiently “natural” to get them to shift over. Veering into Harry Potterisms – it’s the NLE that picks the editor, not the editor that picks the NLE ?
