    I’ve been over in France editing for Cannes Lions this past week knowing that PPRO CC was coming available. I held off installing bhere ecause I wanted to catch some feedback on the release and not attempt to in these horrendously slow download speeds over here. Anyway, I’m just not finding much out there regarding user response. A couple of complaints about .mov compatibility and not being able to copy and paste transitions.. but not really any substantial positive objective reviews. How is it performing for everyone? Any issues? I plan on upgrading from CS6 when I get back this weekend – if I can find some supportive feedback.

    Thanks!

    My team and I downloaded CC on Tuesday morning and using it ever since. No problems. App is more responsive, exports faster, saves faster….pretty much does everything faster than the previous CS6. All my old projects reopen correctly with no connection issues. The downloading was fast, painless….pretty much the way you’d want a major rollout release to go. No technical issues. No glaring bugs.

    It’s just what Adobe showed at NAB – a more polished, stable, faster version of CS6. No complaints here in Dallas, Texas.

    So far for me no negatives, but admittedly I haven’t really pushed it yet. AVCHD media now plays smoothly at full res, however, CS6 did initially as well, but then later began to require that the playback res be lowered to 1/4 in order to play smoothly.

    Media relinking is sweet now. Absolutely sweet. No more need to rename like named files in order to be able to distinguish them if they go offline. PPro tells you what folder they were last found in.

    The Lumetri engine lets you apply grading LUT’s and maintain a yellow bar. We normally used MB Looks, but since that always caused a red bar, we were reluctant to use it.

    Overall the program seems ‘snappier’, but again, so did CS6 initially.

    Still, still, STILL no ability to save custom dissolve presets. Amazes me that this functionality is being ignored.

    Steve Brame: “Still, still, STILL no ability to save custom dissolve presets”

    We have had great success with the Boris RED transition plug-in. It works nicely with PPCC, comes with presets in gradients, rays, blurs, swish pans, soft wipes, to name a few. Create your own dissolves using the stand alone interface and save them to the same library as the presets. So painless.
    I agree with all you say about the new Premiere Pro features. Regarding editing finesse, Adobe delivered. Much easier to move around on the timeline.

    Nice! $1K just to be able to save a dissolve preset!

    Just kidding…sorta.
