What is the impact of upgrading the work station from FinalCut Studio 2 (Fcp 6) to FinalCut Studio 2009 (Fcp 7) if you are on a budget line that can afford shooting with an Alexa... You are preparing yourself to waste a lot of time. Compared to the price of the upgrade for the facility it's not worth it.by Francois - Café LA Re: Pro Kit 7.0 update - 12 years agoit seems you need to reinstall external card drivers after update. but there is already a thread about ProKit 7.0 on the forum ! so I guess Michael will suppress this oneby Francois - Café LA Re: Final Cut Pro X - still Pro - 12 years agoyes funny ! I know lots of editors forum where you could have posted it as a response. Of course it doesn't apply to any post here where everybody expect a lot from this (and I quote myself) new exiting piece of editing software.by Francois - Café LA - X Re: Final Cut Pro X - still Pro - 12 years agoI wonder why Apple is still using " Fcp" as a name for this completely new exiting piece of editing software. It's a brand new solution we are dealing with... it doesn't look like Fcp, it doesn't work like it, it doesn't taste like it. As an evoluting solution Final Cut Pro is as dead as... Shake.

And you don't wan't to apply such a transition in Fcp between a Motion project and a clip in the timeline, (specially if there is an fx on it). Or worst : apply a transition between 2 Motion projects in Fcp timeline. Because the render time in that case is a killer.

At the time I applied a "fake" widescreen with black bars up and bottom. Now the Tv channel want's to broadcast it again but in the meantime they went 16/9 !

(I was doing it allready only for projects including large graphics and/or freeze frame) The full remplacement of ProKit by deleting the installed one (and the recepts), then installing 5.0 & 5.1 did not solve that problem. I've lost roundtrip.by Francois - Café LA Re: Quitting on rendering - 13 years agoI have planned to upgrade my GFX to a 1Gb, definitely. One monitor no change because in my case because the culprits turned out to be ... a few Motion projects in the timeline. Like it's been said in an other thread there is a problem there.
