Existing users, 
Wow. 3.0.4 brings a HUGE improvement to the editor.
I bought the 3.0 upgrade when it was released but couldn't stand the cumbersome editor and reverted to 2.x. Now for the first time the editor is usable. In fact, it has finally regained the speed that it lost with the 2.3.3 release back in December 2006.
Thank you, El Gato, for sticking with it and finally restoring smooth, speedy editing to a great product!

midi3e: Have you looked at the 3.0.4 editor yet? If you've used previous versions just the visual differences should be immediately apparent. They were to me anyway. :)Wednesday, October 08 2008 @ 08:14 PM PDT

I'm not sure the actual editing features have changed from the previous version. The huge difference I see is speed.Even on my 8-core Mac Pro, previous 3.x versions have been unbearably slow scrolling through a recorded video to find editing points. (So have the 2.x versions from 2.3.3 on, but not as severely.) Now I can hold down the right or left arrow during editing, and frames zoom past.
I use an EyeTV 500 to record over-the-air digital broadcasts, mostly high-definition, so my recorded files are often quite large, and this has some effect on editor performance. But I've also used an EyeTV 200 to record analog cable programs, and even those much smaller files were very sluggish to edit. I assume the performance improvement I'm seeing with HD files would also be noticeable with smaller, analog files, but I haven't tried that.
