Re: FCPX from an Editor who used it on Iditarod 2012

[Bill Davis] "Either we're all crazy - or there is something different about it that makes so many feel that once we've made the full transition - fully jettisoning X and going back to the way we used to edit is the one thing we simply won't seriously consider."

I'd add that some of us have used other NLEs as well.
I spent over 10 years on Avid. I knew it well enough to work as the facility engineer at a major broadcast oriented facility and train the editor as well as maintain the systems. The new Avid MC, while a MAJOR improvement, uses a paradigm I do NOT want to go back to after using FCPX.

FCPX has answered so much of what I've hoped for in an NLE for so many years that, despite its flaws, I have to maintain hope. It is much closer to what I want an NLE to be.
