Adobe updates?

[Gus Evangelista]

PPro has had copy and paste attributes for years now. On the timeline,rt-click ‘copy’ a clip, select another clip on the timeline then rt-click ‘paste attributes’.

You can still right click and copy the effect you want in the Effects Control window and then click on the clip(s) you want the effect to be applied to and then do a Control V.

Yeah, command click or shift click any or all you want from the Effects Control panel and copy and paste away. Then command click or shift click any or all the clips in the timeline and just paste.

cool thanks. It’s not possible to paste a portion of the assets? you just paste them all. I guess you can always delete later, etc… for example in FCP it launches a window for attributes that allow me to select which ones will be pasted.

Per your original question as well – Adobe seems to be currently on a yearly release cycle with their software. Even numbered years see a major point upgrade like CS5 to CS6 (2010-CS5, 2012-CS6, 2014-CS7, etc.). Whereas, odd numbered years provide a dot update CS5 to CS5.5 (i.e. 2011-CS5.5, 2013-CS6.5, etc.). Releases are usually announced around NAB in April and ship late May to early June.

This has been the past for the past 3 or so years. If past performance is any indication of future performance I’d say that we’re due for Adobe CS6.5 Spring 2013 and Adobe CS7 in Spring 2014. Adobe has been a pretty furious update path the last 5 years…I don’t see that slowing down.

Thanks! Yeah, I’m moving over to PPro kicking and screaming. I’ve been using FCP for 11 years. But I see FCP dying a slow death and frankly I’m kinda po’d about that. FCPX, even with the latest upgrade has not produced anything close to the industry requirements managed by FCP7.. So I’m htinking, do I have with Apple to see if things come full circle and learn the interface of FCPX or do I migrate over to PPRO. Premiere Pro seems to have a lot fo features I like. And adobe seems to be caterign to the professional, that exites and comforts me. Now the big question, do I purchase a windows 8 system as my next editing workstation or stay with MacPro. Heard Apple was coming our with another MacPro offering next year.

Don’t hold your breath for the Mac Pro (though it will eventually come). For many of us, the iMac is plenty powerful enough, though Final Cut X is not. However, the near impossible upgrade path of the new iMac (including RAM or harddrive) is atrocious.

I would stay away from Windows 8 because the new interface is terrible — or get an add on that makes it more like Windows 7. But as I watch what is happening with Apple, I wonder if my current iMac will be my last?
