P2 – Billy Gates style
Hi All,
I’m having a decent amount of trouble finding a solid, step-by-step explanation of the P2 workflow for Windows-based Avids (Adrenaline HD specifically). All the info and the posts seem to be for Mac Avids or FCP. With this lack of quick-access online info, I’m being lead to believe that P2 on a Bill Gates Avid is a flawless, no-explanation-necessary process. (?)
Your assistance is grrrreatly appreciated in advance! I’ve been on the horn with Avid Tech Support on this, as well as Avid’s knowledge base. After piecing together information from those (and about two dozen other) places, I’m around 70% sure of the process, but would love to gain that last 30%.
Perhaps I missed the “money” site you all know about?

Hi…
with avid closed, mount the p2 device.
It should show up as a new lettered volume in My Computer.
then open Avid…
it will rescan all the drives seeing the new volume.
then create the appropriate project that matches the type of media you worked with on your P2.
Open the media tool…
Search for all master clips on the newly mounted p2 volume.
then use consolidate to copy the clips on to you local storage array.
Drag the newly conlidated clips into a bin in your current project…
save bin…
edit as normal…
have fun…
