Thunderbolt: One year later
by: 
 2/10/2012 4:05 PM
It’s been almost 12 months since Thunderbolt made its debut on the 2011 MacBook Pro. In that time, just a few dozen Thunderbolt products have shipped, to the disappointment of users eager to take advantage of the fast connection. Read More

Zoom H2n Audio Recorder Review
by: 
 2/08/2012 1:34 PM
For budget friendly, uber audio, check out the Zoom H2n Audio Recorder. We're all familiar with the truism that poor video may be forgiven as long as the audio is great, while the best video will suffer if the audio is lousy. Whether short film or feature, Hollywood blockbuster or local independent, the quality of your audio will make or break your production faster than any other single component. Read More

Pegasus Thunderbolt RAID5 from PROMISE
by: 
 2/01/2012 12:50 PM
The high-performance video RAID5 you need for today’s modern Mac-based video editing systems As many ProVideo Coalition readers may recall, I have written about disk arrays from PROMISE before, although the last time it was primarily to be used with a computer with an eSATA port. Now that all Mac computers (except for the MacPro tower) use a Thunderbolt port, many are looking for a disk array which will have the appropriate connection and that will be at least as fast as what they got previo Read More

Thunderbolt: Ahead of its time or wave of the future?
by: 
 1/24/2012 1:02 PM
Why is Thunderbolt’s crazy fast data transfer a bit slow to catch on? No doubt by now you’ve heard a bit about the new Thunderbolt technology by, a collaboration effort between Apple and Intel in 2011 for Apple’s new line of MacBook Pro laptops (as well as MacBook Air, Mac mini and iMac)—and though the hype and performance boost have editors drooling, a year later, adoption could still be a ways off for many users.

Will 2012 be Thunderbolt's year? Devices arrive in force at CES
by: 
 1/23/2012 10:41 AM
Peripherals that use Thunderbolt, the high-speed interconnect developed by Intel and heartily embraced by Apple, have taken their sweet time coming to market. The options so far include a high-end professional RAID from Promise, an expensive portable RAID from LaCie, a pricey display from Apple, and a $50 cable necessary to connect them all. However, a number of companies in attendance at CES had some interesting products to show us, most of which will hit the market this year. Though Apple laun Read More

Hello, 2012: Here Comes Thunderbolt
by: 
 1/09/2012 1:11 PM
2011 saw the introduction of the next great thing in high-speed-data port connections with Apple’s Thunderbolt. It really is a cool technology that could very well make the multi-cable peripheral-connection spaghetti-mess a thing of the past. The kind of speed that Thunderbolt is capable of delivering would be most at home on the digital professional’s desktop, so it’s video and photography folks who will most likely be adopting this technology first. Here we are at the beginning of 2012 with Th Read More

REVIEW: Fast Forward Video Sidekick HD Recorder/Monitor
by: 
 12/20/2011 9:36 AM
Let’s start this review off by dispelling a long-held rumor. I’m a PC guy, just always have been, and after reviewing just about every PC NLE at least once, I have settled on Adobe Premiere Pro (and the CS 5.5 suite) as my editor of choice. Not too long ago, I had a freelance client that absolutely insisted on Apple ProRes files for the output of a project. Unfortunately, Apple does not allow PCs to write ProRes files, and at the time PC’s couldn’t read them either.

Fast-forward a few mon Read More

Your last chance to get Adobe CS5.5 Production Premium for under $1,000!
by: 
 12/19/2011 3:37 PM
This past summer Adobe was running a Promotion to get both Mac and PC users to Make the Switch from Apple Final Cut Pro or Avid Media Composer to Adobe CS5.5 Production Premium. The promotion was a tremendous success and it was our most successful Adobe sale in years. However, like all good things, the Switcher promotion came to an end in October.

While doing our year-end inventory in the warehouse we discovered that we had some of the promotional inventory left over. We cost-averaged it wit Read More
