Adobe gets it and Adobe wants you.

 8/24/2011 12:47 AM
When Adobe Premiere Pro CS 5 was launched more than two years ago, the message was clear that Adobe was taking Premiere Pro into the professional market segment. This is not your father's Adobe Premiere, it is a powerful NLE designed to handle the most challenging professional projects. They were the first NLE developer to commit to an all new 64-bit architecture and native HD format support. Adobe harnessed all of the power in your computer, multiple CPU cores, huge amounts of RAM and even you Read More

    Production Hub: Q&A with Gary Bettan from Videoguys
    by: 
    		 8/16/2011 3:33 PM
    Q: What are the latest trends you're seeing in production and post production?
    A: The biggest trend in Post Production is the decision that many Apple Final Cut Pro editors are faced with, now that FCPX is available. We are spending a lot of time talking to our customers about the many options available to them. Adobe and Avid are both offering special "switcher" or "crossgrade" promotions with discounts at 50% or more. We've seen great interest from all levels of customer’s especially po Read More

    Review: Avid Media Composer V.5.5.2 & AJA's IO Express
    by: 
    		 8/15/2011 10:10 AM
    The day has finally come where someone like me — who is always trying to expand his editing skills — no longer has to purchase a used Avid Adrenaline and an old version of Media Composer to really learn the Avid Media Composer suite.

    Avid, AJA and Matrox have come together to embrace Media Composer’s newly developed third-party hardware support. AJA’s involvement, announced at NAB, is the IO Express — a powerful input, output and monitoring solution. Read More

    Avid Support Forum: Building Your Media Composer Suite
    by: 
    		 8/08/2011 12:38 PM
    Choosing a Platform - Mac or PC: The first question a user is faced with is what platform to run Media Composer on. It is possible that your current computer system will meet the requirements for Media Composer but it is also possible upgrades or additional hardware may be required. Avid has tested and qualified specific system requirements on both Macintosh and PC platforms and recommends that you use configurations that meet these Avid-tested specifications for CPU, graphics cards, Firewire Read More

    7 Ways To Make Use of Your Thunderbolt Port
    by: 
    		 7/27/2011 9:52 AM
    It's been five months since Thunderbolt technology arrived on the scene with the latest MacBook Pro refresh. At the time, not many devices were available to make use of the speedy new I/O connection. Since then, the new port has now appeared on new MacBook Airs, iMacs and Mac minis, and with that, the quantity of Thunderbolt-capable devices has improved as well! While some devices and accessories may not be available just yet, many should be arriving shortly. We highlight a handful that could he Read More

    DIY Update: Sandy Bridge - Getting closer with the ASUS P8Z68-V PRO Motherboard
    by: 
    		 7/25/2011 1:52 PM
    Over the past few months we've taken some heat on some NLE user forums for our recommendation to NOT use Sandy Bridge CPUs for building your NLE workstation. We didn't take this lightly and we understood the frustration it would create for people wanting to build a new NLE workstation. You want to use the latest technology and take advantage of the speed and performance per dollar of the Sandy bridge CPUs.

    Our Sandy Bridge concerns where not about the CPU, but rather the available chipsets Read More

    Coming to Avid Media Composer: 64-bit, 4K and higher projects, a new interface
    by:

    Just before an Avid-hosted event last night on the Warner Bros. lot, editors who gathered there were discussing the shortfalls of FCP X as well as the direction of Adobe and Avid. The buzz was palpable. Inside the Steven J. Ross theater, Avid brought the troops together to emphasize its commitment to the professional market, hammering home that their focus is us: the editors. It was good to hear at a time when some industry people and businesses are feeling abandoned after the release of FCP Read More

    Tweets from Avid’s Committed to the Professional event
    by: 
    		 7/14/2011 12:28 PM
    On Wednesday evening Avid held its Committed to the Professional event on the Warner Brothers Studio lot in Burbank California. The event was announced just over a week ago in a blog post by Avid’s CEO. I would have loved to attend the gathering but since it was in California and I’m in Tennessee it just wasn’t meant to be. But there were some tweets that came out of the event by the #livetoedit hashtag. Read More

    Using Matrox MXO2 devices with FCP X and Compressor 4
    by: 
    		 7/14/2011 12:18 PM
    In the first release of Final Cut Pro X, the interaction with I/O devices such as the Matrox MXO2 products is different than with previous versions of Final Cut Pro when it comes to capturing, monitoring, and outputting video. Exporting to H.264 files from the new Compressor 4 using Matrox MAX-enabled MXO2 devices remains up to 5 times faster than software alone. Read More
