Waiting on 10.2.4 and 10.3

It was raining, I was on my way to meet some friends for coffee. The rain was just a drizzle, suddenly as if I had no choice I was forced under an awning, the rain without warning changed in to a down pour. I almost felt lucky that I had a place to stand as fellow bystanders ran drenched through the storm. A bus sped down the avenue and I realized that I was about to get drenched by that huge puddle in front of me. I opened the glass door behind me, the bell rung and I slipped in to the dark red lit area. The interesting looking lady in the back asked me if I was ready for my reading. As it seemed I had no choice I said, "sure". The session was unbelievable. She knew everything about me. My heart raced, my skin raised on edge when she told me things that I only I knew. She was simply awe inspiring and frightning. When the the whole thing was over, I paid her and said "thanks!?". The rain had stopped. With the exit door half open I twisted my head back and asked her; "ohh, i forgot one more question, the most important one, when will the new final cut pro be released?" she answered "what do you think I'm a f*&cking medium!"

Seems strange that apple would do this a week before.

so 10.3 is the magic number...must be roles based audio mixer, "Richard Taylor tried to download a trial and it was listed as 10.3" according to 9to5mac.com/2016/10/19/final-cut-pro-x-t...pending-10-3-update/

Which page? The URL leads to a mac rumors site. Here's the text, note there's an update form some techie at Bloomberg who seems to violating his NDS:

Richard Taylor, an Apple Certified Trainer for Final Cut Pro, attempted to download the Final Cut Pro X 30-day trial and was met with an unsuccessful download. After looking at the version number of the download, he noticed that it was showing version 10.3, instead of the publicly released 10.2.3 now available on the Mac App Store.

Unfortunately, the download was unsuccessful, so this could mean that Apple jumped the gun on the trial update, or an outright mistake was made. My gut feeling says that a 10.3 update is coming, and the trial download page was updated before things were ready. I independently verified Richard’s findings, as I was met with a incomplete disk image that was only a few bytes in size.

The last Final Cut Pro X update, version 10.2.3, was significant, as it brought customizable default effects, 4K export presets, support for the iPhone 6s series hardware, and a bevy of fixes to the table. The 10.3 update could add official iPhone 7 series hardware support for sharing. It could also add support for the upcoming Mac hardware refresh that’s scheduled for next Thursday or macOS Sierra improvements.

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman chimed in with additional details of what to expect from the Final Cut Pro X 10.3 update. Users can expect improved audio mixing, and subtle flat interface tweaks. An iMovie update is in the cards as well to support the new MacBook Pro OLED function keys.

Whatever the case may be, I’ll just be happy to get a new version. The last Final Cut Pro X update happened at the beginning of 2016 in February, which is basically eons in software update terms. We’ll be sure to let you know if and when version 10.3 goes live.

Ha ha ha ha, a good article

I think my story is more accurate :silly: :blink: :silly: :blink: :silly: :blink:

An old friend, Brian Williams, created the Post Modern Tarot deck (aka: PoMoTaRoT). He updated and replaced the traditional suits of pentacles, wands, swords, and cups with money, TVs, guns, and bottles. In Ye Olde Days when digital video was new, I used a Media 100 rig and Betacam, I often used his deck to create user feedback and otherworldly commentary for AOL messages and Creative Cow posts from the Media 100 developers. Expecting tarot cards to tell the future is silly but the insights into how the M100 management and developers thought were often strikingly accurate.

Ordered the deck for my wife, who is a great tarot reader and collects decks. Thx!

I hope there's significantly more than improved audio mixing based on the length of time since the last feature update. But any update is a good sign.

Now the invitations for the "Hello Again" event has gone out:
www.macrumors.com/2016/10/19/apple-annou...h-mac-centric-event/

So I guess it's a rather safe bet FCPX 10.3 will be released then as well? Wouldn't make much sense releasing it before the event when it's this close, would it?

Releasing it the day before the FCPX Creative Summit, well, then presenters would be using a new version no one was familiar with yet. That would be awkward. Unless presenters have beta copies to prepare with. That would be interesting.

That's cool, who's going to the Summit?

Next week it is then.

On the subject of Tarot cards, I've been collecting them for years - mostly when on holiday I tend to find a pack in some random shop. Think they're interesting visual storytelling devices - which fits well with editing
