FCPX is getting better, but still has a long way to go. Videoguys' Options for Final Cut Editors
by: 
 10/20/2011 9:00 AM
On 9/20/11 Apple released their first update to FCPX 10.0.1. While it shows some progress, it doesn't address the main issues and reasons so many Pros have left Apple for Adobe and/or Avid. Below is the original blog post, with new FCPX information added to reflect the latest information.

We first published our Options for Final Cut Pro owners back on June 6th. Two weeks before FCPX was released. We had high hopes for FCPX, based on the Sneak Peak at NAB, but as time wore on, and we heard Read More

Videoguys DIY NLE Workstation philosophy and DIY9 thoughts
by: 
 10/19/2011 12:54 PM
We're getting a lot of calls and questions about our latest DIY recommendations - and requests for a DIY9 build! We've also been participating in some very hot discussions an the Adobe and COW forums about this. I wanted to put this article together to give some insight into why we pick the components we do and what our overall DIY NLE workstation philosophy is.

The bottom line is this. You need a balanced system for best results. Too much of one area at the expense of another hurts perform Read More

FCP & The Future
by: 
 9/28/2011 11:47 AM
I finally downloaded the FCP-X trial and explored the application for a full day. Prior to this, I used it briefly for two hours. But now, while spending all day trying to make something with it, I discovered that I disliked just about everything about it. Every minute I spent using it made it worse because it was backwards from the way I like to work. But I guess that is how it is designed…to be unlike any other NLE, and to do things very differently. But is the different way better? Not f Read More

    Apple's Richard Townhill discusses the latest FCP X release
    by: 
    		 9/21/2011 3:28 PM
    The newest iteration of the 64-bit FCP X was made available Tuesday as a free and full 30-day trial version featuring a number of, well let’s call them “requests,” from the professional community. Some of those included XML support, XSAN support, and something new called Roles. Another big “request” was multicam editing, and that is coming in early 2012, along with broadcast video monitoring.

    On 9/20/11 Apple released their first update to FCPX 10.0.1. While it shows some progress, it doesn't address the main issues and reasons so many Pros have left Apple for Adobe and/or Avid. The comments below have been added to our Videoguys' Options for Final Cut Editors blog post, but I felt they were also worth sharing as a new blog post. For me the most important thing in the update isn't actually included in 10.0.1 at all. Rather it is this very important information found at the bo Read More

    Kicking the tires on the Final Cut Pro X 10.0.1 update
    by: 
    		 9/21/2011 1:52 PM
    Today was the day that many of us who’ve been following the Final Cut Pro X saga have been waiting for. An update hit the Mac App Store this morning that took FCPX to version 10.0.1. That update is small in number (more on that in a bit) but rather big in features as there’s quite a lot that Apple has stuck into this first update to FCPX. Chief among those things is XML support that introduces a new FCPX specific flavor of XML. Second would be Roles, a new way to tag and label clips that looks t Read More
