[Scott Witthaus] “I was hoping for a new title tool. Alas”

I get the feeling that’s NEVER happening 🙂

[Scott Witthaus] “Perhaps”

If it works as advertised then it’s definitely much better.

[Scott Witthaus] “Perhaps, but the point was that it seemed that Premiere was taking a “breather” if you will and the emphasis was on other products”

I’m not surprised, they’ve been adding features to Premiere since CC was launched. Hopefully it’s slowed a bit to address some under the hood changes, like its handling of 4K XAVC files 🙂

[Scott Witthaus] “social sharing all seem to be “catch up”

Social sharing is “catch up and accelerate past” it’s far better than the equivalent in FCPX at the moment

[Steve Connor]

This is going waaayyy beyond “publish to YouTube” in FCPX

[Jeremy Garchow] “Feels buggish to me.

Report it!

That’s worrying, all my updated libraries are backing up OK

Is your master color a single file?

[John Rofrano] “Tracks are such a foreign concept to telling a story. Tracks make sense for audio because that’s how you physically worked with audio in the studio. You have a 16 track recorder and you record everything on it’s own track. You have a 16 track audio mixer and it has both tracks and summing busses. This is how we’ve always worked with audio. Now we have something similar to an audio bus in FCP X.

Video has no notion of “tracks” in real life so introducing them was a “forced” approach that always seemed unnatural to me. I guess that’s why I love FCP X. (free from tracks at last) ;-)”

I broadly agree, the only time I missed tracks when working in FCPX was for audio, now with this latest update to Roles I don’t think I’ll miss them at all!

[Mike Warmels] “like the lack of AAF export from FCPX”

Handled very well by a low cost third party plugin, it’s never going to have it natively and nitpicking about it NOT having it makes no sense at all.

[Mike Warmels] “All in all, it’s rather ironic. One day FCPX might actually turn out to be a proper, professional NLE”

Seriously?
