This whole “I don’t need anything FCPX is offering and it’s not for PROs” story on every forum on the internet is really funny. I can relate it to a bunch of other stuff happening on this planet. For the example, do anyone remember when digital SLR bodys arrived ? For at least five years there were millions who thought how that is unusable trash and it will never replace film 🙂 The same thing is happening with movies today.
And there are other group of people who acts like they are blind and they need a year in FCPX to see just how everything is faster and more efficient, and “they just don’t see how the magnetic timeline is better ?”….Seriously ?!?! 🙂 It’s like those Americans who thought for 50 years that american cars are the best in the world, and now they drive Hondas and Toyotas 🙂
Tapes are dead for at least couple of years, but for some reason people who work on archaic equipment think that the future of NLEs has to support that. Today, there are much much more profesionals who work with progressive, tapeless file based, large sensor material, so why do I care for those TV guys who edit a footage with 1 mile DOF and need to use their artificial light with a first shadow ? THAT is history and we should move on and start editing far more effectively and much faster than ever. Yes, we need multicam, XML and better network support, but all that will come, and when it comes, AVID and Premiere will be in the same position they have already been in year 2003.
Bottom line, if you don’t want to use FCPX, just don’t. If you don’t want to use FCP 7, just don’t, use whetever you like, just stop complaining like you have no choice.
And just one thing, why the hell you want to import old finished project ever ? Again, it’s some small sensor, 1 mile DOF TV crap. You can use AVID for that, and just leave alone anyone who wants something way more efficient than those lego bricks always on a virge of shattering into pieces…

It turns out there are other software you could use 🙂
