yeah he is arrogant, but after watching his presentation i had a bit more faith in the program, then i just dove in. And as I stated in my first post, not bad. I’m really doing all that I had done in FCP7 except for a few things. I was big on button assignments and I haven’t even attempted to see if that is a function or not. And I’m a bit concerned about RAM. I’ve got 7 gigs on a 2.8ghz Quad Core Nahalem with a ATI Radeon HD 5770 with 1gig of RAM, yet I’m getting some spinning pin wheels. Not a lot but enough to notice that it is annoying. Probably because I’m just importing my DSLR H.264 directly in without optimization. I”m going to keep at it. It does work. And hopefully BlackMagic & AJA will have some hardware I can use with it. FCP7 will stay installed on my system because I may need to go back to older projects. As much as I love Avid & had fun in the 90’s with PRemiere PRo, I just don’t want to go back to those. 🙂
