Re: How much different is 4 from 6 really,
by David Roth Weiss on Oct 18, 2008 at 12:23:02 pm

There are huge differences in realtime performance that took FCP from a "wannabe" in ver. 4 to the professional app. it has become.

Realtime functionality was greatly enhanced in ver, 5 and then optimized in ver. 6. That includes the ability to preview almost anything on the timeline without rendering now.

As I recall, if you added text or graphics or still photos to the timeline in version 4 you had to render everything just to preview it on the timeline, and you had render every minor change or trim in the timeline as well just to see if it worked.

So, one could easily argue that the changes made since ver. 4 have pretty much improved the workflow of every minute of every edit session in FCP. That's pretty different don't ya think?
