Any FCP X users her at all?

...besides me?

No, but after playing with and enjoying it at a local Apple store I'm tempted to test it on my (2007, 4 GB RAM core duo) Imac, just need to update OS first.

No, you will update your iMac. It is not supported, and won't even install (have the same vintage on my desk). Here's a list of machines NOT supported: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4664

Bah! Newer (Mac) hardware is not in the budget, so a proper test of FCPX have to wait .

Tried it, went back to FCE. Maybe in the future, after a few version updates...

One more reason for me to stay with FCE - it runs well on my white 2008 MacBook (which also runs well ); I have no intention to switch as long as I don't have to...

I'm not.. yet. Seriously drooling over FCP X though. A quick question I had though, was if it would work with a modern i5 Mac Mini? (I'm getting desperate as you can tell... ) I assume yes?

[homestar_kevin]

I have had it, along with motion and compressor, for around 2 months now.

I have done some personal projects on it, as I use PP at work, and am still getting acquainted with everything, but I really like FCPX a lot and am excited to see where it goes.


ALSO, thanks for all the interesting/free stuff you dig up and post about FCPX, cgbier, it's really helpful and I appreciate it.

[cgbier]

You're welcome, Kevin.

Timbit, it should work fine. The Mini has developed to a speed monster meanwhile (only half kidding here).

Thanks CG!

-Yeah, part of my workflow
-Still on trial
-Tested and de-tested it

... I don't see one for NO

haha

[cgbier]

Your absence from the poll has been registered as a no

[dearcatastrophe]

yes.


and glad they cared to update it a bit. still lacks features but i kind of like the new layout and workflow. plus, i sold my copy of fcs 3 when the whole fcp community went into panic mode when they announced the end of fcs3.

[cgbier]

i sold my copy of fcs 3

Why's that?
I've taken my FCS out of the Dock, but it'll stay in the Apps folder until the machine dies (still need DVDSP).

[dearcatastrophe]

i had nothing tying me to fcs 3 at home, so i figured a little extra money would be nice, especially since people were paying more then retail for them since they were worried apple wasn't going to offer it anymore.

i'm sure i still have it somewhere in a backup, and multiple hdd's but i won't go back (at least not at home)
figure it's better to keep moving forward and suffer a little.

I was suffering last week when I had to revisit/rebuild an older project in FCP6. Once you are used to FCP X, the old one feels absolutely clumsy and slow.
