Yes, many high end post facilities use Smoke. It doesn't really compare to Premiere and FCP. There's a pretty good learning curve to use it.

Also, do you have 15k to purchase it?

I thought Smoke was a program like Shake?

I guess it's more like Avid DS?

Autodesk Flame is more of the comparable app to Shake.

Smoke is a finishing editor like Avid Symphony or Avid DS. It is pretty pricey and IIRC it's used a lot on high-end commercials and short projects.

Finishing editor ? So this will not be the best to use for a project from scratch ?
Would you say it's more capable then FCP 7 or Premiere 5.5 ?
