[Shane Ross] “SHOW EDITOR with Field story producing experience AND color correction AND audio mixing? Not asking for much are they? Wonder what they pay for this is…AND, I wonder what they mean by “Trial basis.” “
ah yes, welcome to the new world….

[Walter Soyka] “Herb’s personal experience has no bearing on whether his argument is right or wrong.”
I have no problem with anyone voicing an opinion or argument, but my point is the opinion and argument must be taken within the context of experience. Herb clearly stated that. I mean, I could argue nuclear physics, but who the hell would listen to me on that!

[Herb Sevush] “I’m merely stating what to me is obvious, that they are different approaches, each with their own advantages, and the decision of which to use should be based on the individual editors workflow and preferences.”
But Herb, just to be clear, you don’t use FCPX correct? I think that is what I remembered you saying in some post? You have looked at it, perhaps own it, but don’t use it in a real world environment. Is my memory correct on this? I just want to be clear on where you are making your judgment calls. So many times, on this forum and others, you see posts strongly criticizing one thing or another from a person who has never used the product! If I am wrong, I apologize.

[Andrew Kimery] “I think that can just be the difference between a demo artist who’s made the same speech 100 times before and possibly never used/needed the features they are demoing. Where as a user, if they have a really good experience, will have an really good story to go along with it.”
I agree. If this Avid demo artist could have wrapped a workflow, or even a real world project into her demo, it would have been much more effective. As it was, she didn’t sell any MC subscriptions that day.

[Charlie Austin] “The editor described it as “the happiest year of my life”.”
Ddi the editor talk about his/her experience in the past? What platforms, software, etc.. And why this year was so happy?
I was at a Sony /Avid 4k thing last week and the Avid demo artist just went through a list of features. I think she must have been tired. She just read off a piece of paper and it was like “oh this is cool, you can go to this menu and change ratio….” That type of demo. Nothing inspiring. Would be interesting to know why that Focus editor was so happy.

You can adjust the volume in the Inspector’s Audio tab…while playing if you want.

Now, now Robin. You could have stopped right there and we would have all got it! 😉
