    I wonder if the foley footsteps were foley’d?

    I believe Raid has been put back in Sierra.

    Maybe the footage was some of that 12bit 32khz 4ch stuff?

    No more permissions repair in El Capitan Disk Utility I’m afraid.

    If you need to transcode, for 4K for example, the MacPro will be helpful. But if you’re dealing with HD you’ll likely not need to transcode h264 footage because the i7 has accelerated h264 handling that the xeons do not. For many people the iMac is overall a better performing machine when dealing with h264 material.

    Does it list all effects, titles, generators and transitions? Even in compound clips? We bought Producer’s Best Friend for this specific purpose and it can’t do it.

    Sounds good. Guess I’ll have to up my postings to get my head back up though. 18th poster of all time just ain’t good enough. 😛

    Or better, simply drag them to a keyword collection in the same event. There’s really no reason to have multiple events in a library the majority of the time.

    You should borrow your daughter’s computer to edit at home too! 🙂

    I have the same 2012 iMac for my home editing. It’s probably been 3 years since I edited a project with anything but X. Flanders LM series monitor for video. BMD ultra studio or t-tap for sdi out to the flanders. A second Dell 22″ monitor for the event browser. Pegasus 4 raid. Variety of other usb 3 drives / raids for backup and such. Old MA-12 speakers that used to belong to an avid suite in the 90s for speakers.

    My wife’s laptop must be our home computer because as far as the IRS is concerned the iMac is for business only. 🙂

    Some weeks/months I’m editing 10-12 hours a day stopping only to pick up kids at school or the bus stop. Often they’re right there next to me on my old 2006 Mac Pro 1,1playing angry birds or watching something horrible on YouTube.

    I don’t edit on the road, but we have a 2012 MacBook Pro that still runs X pretty well even if it is an i5. I can always rely on that as an emergency backup or to edit on a shoot if need be.

    I’m looking for a laptop and a new iMac in the next 6-12 months.

    Isn’t that what we said with El Cap? And Yosemite?
