Combustion vs. A.E.

i use combustion and i think its great! i use boris red some too but i think that combustion is alot better.
 
Combustion v4 is coming out soon with some great new tools including vector paint, the keyer from Flame (diamond keyer), and some other goodies. It's a strong program for sure. That said, I use AE 99% of the time for what I do. Combustion has a harder user interface to learn, but once you learn it, it's not that bad. Combustion is strong in the compositing/roto arenas, as well as particle effects. AE is stronger in the motion graphics/design area, which is why I choose it as my tool of choice.
 
ps: Hey ragdoll, you're in OKC? Sweet another Okie! I think that makes 3 of us so far. :)

Bingo.

And yes, it's true that Combustion has a hell of a learning curve. Once you get the keyboard down, though, it's like butter.

I also think that Discreet is going to add expansion capibilites for more AE plugins than just the standard ones this time around...
