Is Premiere CC more stable than CS6?
Posted by Brad Baker on October 25, 2013 at 3:44 pmLong time FCP7 user…made the switch the Premiere CS6 a few months ago. I’m loving the speed and workflow but it’s not near as stable as what I was used to with FCP. I’m crashing at least a couple times every session.
For those of you who went from CS6 to CC, has there been any improvement in stability? If it helps any I’m doing lots of dynamic linking with PP & AE.

October 25, 2013 at 6:22 pmI have been using Premiere Pro since CS3 or CS4 and I’m extremely happy with the newest version that is out. I have yet to run across any issues as it feels comfortable and reliable.
They did a good job streamlining creating new sequences based off a file and allowing you to adjust more settings on the fly (this wasn’t so great in previous versions).
Do you have any specific questions on it?

October 25, 2013 at 7:50 pmBrad, although I have not had stability issues (mac version here)
CC version over CS6 is VASTLY improved.Any of the features that didn’t quite work all the time (render or export hangs occasionally)
were all FULLY fixed with CC version.and the ability to play unrendered sequences smoothly and glitch free with many track layers
was also improved big time. (utilizing gpu acceleration)Highly recommend anyone using CS6 upgrade to CC.

October 27, 2013 at 1:27 pmIn my experience, CC has been about 1000 times more stable – and useful – than CS6.

October 27, 2013 at 11:41 pmLots of unmeasurables in this thread…
Not sure how something is 1000 times more or less dependable…does one cause your computer to burst into flames?
Usually there is a reason that a piece of software crashes “all the time” for one person versus running fine for others…usually due to something other than the software itself.
Does CC have improvements over CS6? Sure it does.
Will Premiere Pro CC run flawlessly on a machine where CS6 crashes “all the time”…I have to question that.

October 28, 2013 at 7:33 amTim is correct, excuse the hyperbole.
My experience with PrP was moving to 5.5 from being a loooong time FCP user [4-7].
I have found PrP maddening in many ways. Some things it does is literally confounding [can’t open more than one project at a time, if you import a project it imports ALL the clips into the new project, how it works with titles, etc,].
That being said, with each successive version, Adobe have ‘un-sucked’ PrP more and more, and it’s evolved into a much more stable and
user-friendly NLE.I’d say, don’t waste time on CS6. There are a great many fixes in CC and there’s a new draft out very soon that will hopefully fix more things.
Also, see the blog retooled.net for tutorials to get the most out of CC.

October 29, 2013 at 5:23 pmVery stable PPr CS6.0.5

If your system is crashing, it’s most likely the hardware or preferences settings. Because the configuration is critical to building a stable system with the fast throughput making CS6 so productive.Starting with CS 6.0.3 I finally have an operating system. I started with Windows 98 and 4.2 and there have been huge bugs most of the way. Today I am finally VERY happy with CS6.0.5.
I see no reason to go to the cloud because If I did my system would definately crash when I stopped paying monthly.
