  • New FCP system Matrox2, BlackMagic Mulitbridge or OTHER

    Looking to install a new system for mostly INDUSTRIAL work. Any thought or advice about the pros and cons of these two converters. BlackMagic Multibridge or MATROX2 and any other suggestions to my plan.

    Here are the basics:

    Taking in mostly HD from P2, DVCpro50 through Firewire Panasonic Deck, and still have to keep my BetaSP active for some content that is still coming to me in that format. So still need some way to bring in analog.

    Most of output is to DVD. I back-up masters to the DV50 deck. Any of the HD projects still being outputted to DVD at this point. In future if need HD output will probably be bringing to outside resource for output.

    Want to be able to monitor to a HDMI Monitor. Any suggestions for Monitors?

    Thinking of:

    Dual 2.8ghz Quad Core
    Not sure about level of Graphics Card (do not do a lot of heavy graphic work, mainly input of AE files from Graphic Artist)
    8GB RAM
    eSPEED raid 4TB
    HDMI monitor
    BlackMagic Multi Bridge or MATROX2

    I always get the greatest feedback here from people putting together new systems.

    Thank you for your help. Don Forschmidt
