If you try to absorb everything it can do in one session it will
completely overwhelm you.
I have a WJMX-50 and seldom use much of the stuff the thing is capable
of doing. I use mine in both production and post production. For
production if you limit it to just simple cut, dissolve and fade to
black it is quite easy to learn. I wouldn't attempt to use if for many
of the fancy special effects in a production setting. Those are much
easier utilized in a post setting.
Couple of quick tips you should know if you are going to use it in
production with 2 or 3 camera inputs. You CAN NOT cut on the same buss
as you will get momentary freeze frames if you do so.
Cuts must be done from the A to the B bus and you do so by setting the
frame rate selection to zero.
