Re: DS and FCP

[Chris Smith <chris(at)sugarfilmproduction.com>]

Yes, I bought it in version 1.0 to finish my movie.  Premiere at the time wouldn't load the timeline when it got longer than around 45 minutes.  I bought FCP when it first dropped and it worked beautifully.  I have used it ever since.  Now I'm trying to unlearn FCP habits and pick up new ones on DS.

Now I use FCP to cut reels and DS for editing.

Agreed, Wes, and thanks for the clarification. Though I tried to gently

pin the blame on DS, I should have also restated your product's

reputation as a fine tool for passing projects around from app to app. I

think everybody knows this sort of situation is not the fault of

Automatic Duck.

But a very experienced editor sent me an FCP>Duck OMF last year which

was,

in every sense, awful.

DS definitely has OMF import problems, this is why our web site

specifically singles out DS as unsupported.  We are hopeful 

that eventually DS might adopt standardized AAF 1.1 import, especially

Edit Protocol, and maybe then things will improve.
