    I apologize for the lousy typing skills of my last post. One too many ‘cans’.

    Thank you, Adobe. I can hardly wait to get my hands on CS6! I finally became somewhat fluent using Premiere, and am working hard to learn After Effects (I came from FCS3). CS6 just looks so vastly improved. I’m beyond impressed.

    With CS6, plus Avid’s Symphony upgrade special, and the new Smoke, and…xxx

    2012 will be quite the year to remember for all in the video creation field. Especially for me if Encore can now output a proper BDCMF folder 🙂

    Oliver –

    Have you had a chance to actually play around with PPro, or were you going from a list of specs?

    I’m curious if multicam editing still cuts back to the angle playback started on every time playback stops?

    In CS5.5 if I start playing a multicam sequence with angle 1 active and then live cut to angle 3, then 2, and then pause playback premiere automatically adds another edit back to angle 1 when I click to stop. I would like cuts to only happen if I add them. In this example when I pause, no cut would be added. The cti would just stop with angle 2 still active.

    Is there an option to join through edits as in FCP?

    Based on several in person demos and presentations. A more in depth review will be down the road.

    [Dustin Parsons] “1) Will Premiere Pro 6 have the ability to apply motion blurs to moving objects?”

    No – that’s an After Effects thing for sure. Dynamic link here for sure.

    [Dustin Parsons] “2) Will Premiere Pro 6 be able to keep folder/file hierarchy when importing a folder that has subfolders?”

    If I understand you correctly, I’ve seen the answer be both yes and no depending on the version. I haven’t checked yet on CS6. Remember, if you’re using file-based media, you want to use Premiere Pro’s media browser to bring in the media as it will be a more efficient workflow for most people.

    [John Davidson] “1. Does Premiere Pro 6 have an option for adjustment layers similar to how they work in AE?”

    Yes.

    [John Davidson] “2. Will PPro or AE now allow for multiple open projects simultaneously? Not importing, but actual separate projects open?”

    No. We can import part or all of another project but we cannot open multiple projects at one time. We are aware of many FCP users wanting this kind of thing.

    [John Davidson] “3. Can independent audio clips in PPro have their levels adjusted as in FCP without affecting the whole track?”

    No. Premiere Pro is a track based mixer – not a clip based mixer like FCP legacy. You do have clip based keyframing on the timeline, but the mixer is track based. We know this is a very high feature request among many users. Premiere’s automation and audio handling capabilities are very high – I would argue better than anything else out there, but I (and Adobe) definitely know that this is something that is different and potentially troubling to FCP users.

    [John Davidson] “4. Do the 6750M AMD enhancements also apply to iMacs containing that card?”

    The cards we offically support are listed on the website. If it is not listed, there are ways to work around this, BUT we have to be clear and say that it isn’t supported. We want to allow everyone to experience the GPU goodness, but we can’t keep ahead of all the new cards that are popping out all of the time. I hope that we’ll add some iMac type ATI cards to the officially supported list soon. until then, you can search the web for the workaround which I find to be just fine.

    I’ve tried dealing with the devil using CS 5.5, which also “should” have worked. If no baseline changes were made to file handling, I’m not sure how that could have been addressed. I’ll be interested to get my hands on a trial copy, though – especially since my testing with 5.5 went so poorly. If it’s more of the same, I’ll probably continue the trend of warming up to FCP X.

    With all deference and due respect to Dennis do you mean something other than right clicking on a clip and changing its audio gain?
