Hope the post production guys won't be too upset about the music-oriented features and that it won't interfere with the simplicity it used to be when editing sound for film.


ps: did you notice that they finally introduced the db levels next to the faders after what...10 years? No more guessing!

That goes back to my rhetorical question from earlier--- "what if it just works"...?
