[Scott Witthaus] “[Neil Goodman] ” think you’re debating with yourself. Did anyone bring this up besides you? These are two different machine’s – one has a touch screen, one does not. How are they comparable at all?”
Bingo.
Nothing to see here, folks. Move along…”
I don’t think they are comparable. A certain person on this thread think OS X and Windows 10 are are the same but they are not. OS X lacks touch screen support and a mobile mode. I posted about the Surface Studio because Apple has nothing to compete with the Surface Studio when using graphic design software. Keep in mind in another thread they are discussing Affinity and Pixelmator Pro. Those program will probably benefit from the features of the Surface Studio as opposed to an iMac. Does it make sense now? It really is not rocket science.

[Steve Connor] “Yes it’s odd that, people talking about editing, on a video editing forum ☺
“People talking about video editing in this forum is not odd. People only mentioning video editing when talking about the Surface Studio on this thread is odd because for many people graphic design/photo editing software is needed. Having said that people have posted about Affinity and Pixelmator. Are those video editing programs? Do you edit videos with Pixelmator Pro? Obviously people discuss more than just video editing in this forum.

[Shane Ross] “[andy patterson] “The Intensity Shuttle will not capture 1920 X 1080 at 60 FPS. Not sure if 60 FPS is needed or not.”
The only 60fps tape format there is is 720p60. 1080 on tape is always 29.97 or 23.98.”
I am hip. I think the Intensity Shuttle will work OK. I am just hinting that for the price it might be better to get the Intensity Pro 4K because it has a lot more options than the Shuttle. I admit you would need an empty PCIE X4 slot.

[Charlie Austin] “Editing using a touch screen is awful. I’m sure the Surface is a wonderful thing but.. no thanks.”
Who said anything about using a touch screen for video editing? You folks keep mentioning video editing as opposed to Illustrator and Photoshop. That is like saying you wouldn’t use an iMac for skateboarding. Who would? I am guessing the MS Surface Studio might offer the user a better way to interact with the Affinity Design software as well. The surface studio worked well with MS Edge and several other programs. Keep in mind if you want to use a keyboard and mouse with Surface Studio you still can. It is not like it is illegal to use the best input device for the job.

[Brent Marginet] “The BlackMagic Intensity may be a good option for you.
There’s a USB 3 and Thunderbolt version available and they start at $200.”As long as he gets the BNC to RCA adapters I think it should work. The only thing is the Intensity Pro 4K can offer capture of 1920 X 1080P at 60 FPS. The Intensity Shuttle will not capture 1920 X 1080 at 60 FPS. Not sure if 60 FPS is needed or not. I also think you can purchase the BNC breakout cables separately with the Intensity Pro 4K version.
The video below might be worth watching.

You have the playback set a full resolution. Drop it 1/2 or maybe even 1/4. the GTX 750 Ti will work but it is a mediocre GPU. Any Desktop Quad Core i7 at 3 GHZ or higher should work OK as well.

I have the Lone Rhino on vinyl. Having said that you’ve gotta love a man with a Big Muff who is not afraid to use it : )

I see BNC component connectors. Do you need full deck control?

[Tom Sefton] “If you have thunderbolt 3 and an egpu it might do”
I think the Titan might hit a bottleneck with Thunderbolt 3 but maybe not. If the Titian doesn’t hit a bottleneck the Volta GPUs probably will. There is a reason to have PCIE slots. I imagine Canon Lake or Ice Lake will offer PCIE 4.0.

[Oliver Peters] “[andy patterson] “Nor did anyone say it is better than an iMac.”
Then what’s the point of this thread if that isn’t what you’ve been trying to say?”
I never stated The Surface Studio is better. The Surface Studio offers a better interaction with some programs. Some users will get a benefit from the Surface Studio others will not. That is the only thing I have ever stated and it is what other have said about the Surface Studio. The bottom line is Apple has nothing to compete with the Surface Studio for graphic designers. Most of the money for the MS Surface Studio went into the touch and pressure sensitive screen of the MS Surface Studio. Having said that will the Surface Studio 3 in 2020 offer better specs than the 2020 iMac Pro?
