Kylee Wall has an article on using Premiere Pro CC.
I have completely lost my aversion to Premiere Pro, and in fact really like it now, and love the After Effects integration. I do agree that Adobe software does get random problems that are hard to solve (I find a complete uninstall usually helps, but is a total pain), but it is a really powerful editor. And honestly being back on Media Composer feels like using a dinosaur. Sure it is mostly stable, but it is not like it does not have issues too.
And FCP 7, well I loved it, and will miss it, but FCP X is not it’s replacement. It is a powerful editing program, but I don’t like it’s timeline or how it forces you to do things in certain ways, so it will never work for much of what I do (though I am sure some day I will have to delve back into it’s dark waters).
