I was simply responding to your comment about workflow on FCP and Avid.
FCP's workflow is quite as easy as Vegas, but it also has the advantage of being used in conjuction with its studio, which is a HUGE asset. You can import your FCP project into Soundtrack Pro, edit all the audio, add sound effects, balance everything for 5.1 and then bringing the entire project back into FCP without having to render anything out. Your original timeline stays intact and everything is done in Metadata, which is a huge time-saver and increases your functionality dramatically.
I respect the fact you want to stay with Vegas, I'm simply saying that FCP is a great thing to learn if you're looking to ramp up your skills  |
So the only way to ramp up my skills is to go FCP?
Just messin with you.
I agree, not so much that FCP is the be all end all. I still want to learn Avid, and my connections to mainstream say it still dominates despite what Tony says.
I'm not refusing to learn it, but when I get an extra 20K, I'll think about dropping it into a FC system. Right now it just doesn't make sense financially for me to learn FC if mainstream is hiring Avid. Ideally I'd like to stay in adult but dabble in mainstream.
