But nothing beats a real-world demo, that's why we are happy that Perig Guinamant gave a sneak-peek of the new MergeX update during the FCP X Tour in Madrid.Recognizing that video skills are more important than ever in today’s media jobs, the Guild is offering free training (a $1250 value) in July in Final Cut Pro X. I have tested this new feature and it works very well. In addition to collaborating on logging and tagging clips, you can use MergeX to modify the metadata of your clips in the Browser after having started your edit, and see all these changes reflect in the instances of these clips on your timeline. But quite a few people have been asking to at least have the option to make changes in the Browser ripple through the timeline. In some workflows, this can be a good thing. of a clip in the Browser after having started your edit, the metadata of that clip on the timeline will not change. E.g., when you change the name, keyword, role, clip note. In FCP X (as in classic FCP), instances of clips on the timeline become independent from their parent clips in the Browser. There are lots of things to like in this application and with version 1.2, Perig Guinamant and his team have taken MergeX to the next level. Another useful feature of MergeX is that it combines the clip notes from different events into a single Note field, separated by a vertical line: "Note from Event1 | Note from Event2". If new media has been added to any of the events, all he media from every co-editor will be combined into a single event. The different events don't even need to have the same media. It works with every type of asset: video, audio, or stills, synchronized, multicam, and compound clips. and then merge their FCP X events without losing any metadata and without creating duplicate clips. It allows multiple editors or assistants to work on the same footage at the same time on multiple systems, logging metadata, keywords, ratings, roles, etc. MergeX is a very handy app that comes from the need of a real-world, easy to implement collaborative workflow. Ronny Courtens takes a look at the new update to Merge X - An application for Final Cut Pro X users that allows the merging of events without loss of logging data or duplication of media.
