Good points all. I just stumble down the road and try to find something that will do even half of what I want it to do. And most of what a want is mundane, everyday stuff that is just not available (Can’t feather the edge of a wipe in Adobe PP CC 2014. What the hell?) On the other hand there is a thousand times more capability available at a hundreth of the price now as compared to 15 years ago. (And, as a colleague recently pointed out to me Adobe PP CC 2014 has a killer sharpen filter – that’s worth 10 of the 300 picadillos I have to work around.)

Disciplines are merging, to be sure. To be honest there is not a single NLE out there that meets my needs totally. And if I’m going to be honest with myself that is not going to happen anytime soon, if ever. And, Bill, if I am not mistaken, a big point you are making is that these folks who make the tools with which we make our living do not derive a huge profit from NLE’s but make most of their money from other parts of their businesses. If so, point taken.

You may list anything as you like. My present clients have delivery requirements. Do yours?

Bad, Tim. You should be banned from the space time continuum.

Not possible and easy are two very different things. It is possible to do almost anything in FCPX with workarounds. And the first word there is “work.” And in EVERY OTHER NLE I don’t have to worry about primary or connected story lines. Or what that NLE is going to do that I don’t want it to do.

I’m just curious, Jeremy. On an average show I am making between 1000 to 1500 edits. Are you doing similar?

Indeed, we must be.

[Jeremy Garchow] ” Shift-e, set in and out, copy, paste.
It’s no harder, most likely, you’re editing with components open anyway (at least I am).”
How many more steps in Shift-e, set in and set out, copy, paste than mark in mark out?

And I also do not have to copy and paste anything.

I’m sorry, Jeremy. It’s just not that simple. By the time you “open audio components, select range” I have completed my edit in the timeline.
It’s as simple as setting and in and and out. I do not have to open anything.Tim
