It is now $595 - was it ever sold at a lower price . I am learning to Love it - but the cost is prohibitive for me - wanted to know if I could expect a sale at any point for a lower price ..
From memory that's pretty close to the "special" price that it was first offered at, and I bought at, so if you do get it at a lower price, I will immediatedly organise a protest march.
Peter Video editors just don’t cut it at protest marches
Here are some reasons why we get confused and get thrown off protest marches.
backup ...A duplicate copy of a file or disk in another location if the original file or disk becomes corrupted.
bin.... A database in which master clips, effects, and sequences are organized for a project. Bins provide database functions to simplify the organization and manipulation of material for recording, capturing, and editing.
convergence.... The proper alignment of the vertical and horizontal lines to ensure that the red, blue, and green signals are correctly registered to produce a proper color image on video displays. Convergence circuits are found on color monitors and projectors.
gang ....Any combination of multiple tracks that are grouped. An edit that is performed on one track is also performed on tracks that are ganged together.
gutter.... The space between columns of text
heads out.... Film or tape wound on a reel with the tail on the inside next to the hub and the head end on the outside
.
handle..... Material outside the IN and OUT points of a clip in a sequence. The handles are used for dissolves and trims with the new, shorter master clips
jogging.... To move through a clip or sequence, frame by frame, forward and backward. See stepping and scrub.
master/slave..... A video-editing process in which one or more decks (the slaves) are set to imitate the actions of another deck (the master). A relationship between synchronized clips in which the position of the slave clips is calculated relative to the master clip.
master shot .....The shot that serves as the basic scene, and into which all cutaways and close- ups will be inserted during editing. A master shot is often a wide shot showing all characters and action in the scene.
monitor...... In video, a picture tube and associated circuitry without tuner or audio sections. The monitor includes the display of source media, clips, and sequences.
negative .....A film element in which the light and dark areas are reversed compared to the original scene; the opposite of a positive.
