  • Premiere cc 2015.3 Multi-cam How to increase speed?

    Posted by Kevin Loh on July 1, 2016 at 12:53 am

    Hey folks!

    I’ve always had a difficult time w Multicam on Premiere. It tends to be shall we say fairly poky to refresh. I’ve had similar speed issues with just 3-4 cams at 1080. Also had similar speed with the older CC2015, and just CC as well. I’ve tried even dropping down render to 1/8 as well, but it seesm to be slow.

    Details on project
    – 3 cams
    – 2 C100s,
    – 1 GH4 4K 30p
    – 1080P timeline

    Machine specs
    PC
    24 Gbs Ram
    Win 10 64 bit
    650Ti Vid Card
    i7 920 2.6Ghz
    Project sits on one SSD
    another SSD for cache
    another SSD for OS
    Renders out to conventional HD, but just for exports.

    Thanks gang!

    If your trying to run multicam off a single SSD your gonna have big trouble. Drive speed is crucial to proper running any kind of multicam, and your hitting it with long gop 4K codecs – any drive speed less than 500MB/s is gonna be a big problem. You either need to buy a high speed raid for your media files or work with the new Proxy workflow of the latest version of Ppro.

    Thanks Herb!

    I just started investigating what was going on w the proxies, and i was using them incorrectly. I did a test last night, and BOOM! Smooth like buttah. But I was thinking if I was using native, I’d need a raid. Or at least split up the media on different SSDs.

    Kinda silly as I have about 4 SSDs on my machine already, but each dedicated to something, like programs, cache, OS, and media.
