They will probably make us have to stop our old tired bad habits and see editing in new ways.
Can you name at least 3 old, bad habits I and all other editors have? Setting In/Out marks and believing they are staying permanently with clip untill we delete them? Is that a bad and unneded habit? Easy crrossfade between 2 audios without need to dance woodoo dances with compound, secondary, connected or whatever new paradigming naming BS? I don’t want new way of editing, I just want to do my job and this is not product for me. I have 20 years of experience in editing and I know what to expect from professional editing SW, I don’t see needed functionality and I don’t think it there will be added in this product.
btw. I would like to see how FCPx will perform in one year of extensive editing: startup times, lags, etc. I wouldnt be suprised that after some time there will be some suprises.
