Hey Greg

Thanks also for your reply. Yep as much as I can squirm about the windows ecosystem (mainly due to my own massive knowledge gap) I couldn’t agree more that a custom PC would provide some incredible options!

Thanks for the chat (we best not hijack this post any longer haha) 🙂

Yep, I agree Greg. No Cuda on this machine like I had w the Mac Pro Tower.

Am keen to dive deep into Premiere plus Resolve (paid version) plus even FCX now. Just need the time! Really struggling to settle on one…and I’d really like to base my workflows going fed on just one if possible (I don’t freelance as I work direct w clients). I only really use PPro currently as it was a pretty easy migration from FCP7, plus I already pay for it and it seems a majority of post mobs / agencies / in house corporate department etc use it too so it’d be unwise to not be familiar w it.

I also struggle w going w FCX as I don’t trust that Apple won’t again neglect it’s pro app users n not support new codecs / formats etc etc as they are released in the coming yrs…of course the new mac’s they’re touting are sounding promising as we’d all agree…let’s just see what the “Apple Tax” will be on these!????

Resolve as also an NLE would be something I’d love to move to permanently! I really dig that they’ve done a lot of work on the NLE side of things including the level of audio post integration etc, plus even to the extent of how Grant Petty comes across in his preso’s when showing new products n talking about the company n products directions and their thinking…. they think like us, not like a company catering for a broad based consumer of personal products etc. Plus they seem to listen and implement based on feedback n demand n not what they want to manipulate customers into in the way that i.e. Apple forces your hand…(getting WAY off track on a rant here)… anyhow I do like where BMD have been heading w Resolve 14.

Of course to provide more “uncertainty” in the NLE I’d settle on to use predominantly looking forward I also have that gut feeling that FCX will still likely be the most responsive NLE for 4K n beyond as an NLE purely because of the 64bit architecture n code it currently employs (plus the fact that perhaps Apple will tend to favor it’s own NLE integration n supporting code over competitor’s NLE SW packages..

But really this is all speculation n here-say….I really need to just test all NLE’s n their workflows….

Either way, from recent experiences w the new top specc’d iMac I’m def not been wowed by any increase in performance inside PPro unfortunately.

…sorry for getting sidetracked here y’all!????

Worked for me for now.

Premiere is a dog of an NLE, needs a complete re-write.

Adobe need to stop releasing constant updates with frivolous features that most eds don’t need and spend their time making this a stable, BUG-LESS NLE.

I really ONLY need AE otherwise I’d drop my subscription like a hot potato. Every other app I use can be covered by low cost one off payment SW.

Having just bought a new specc’d up machine I can’t believe how much it struggles with 4K media, even with all the updates that were supposed to fix the issues (ie GH5 4K / H.264 and even ProRes to an extent).

SUPER FRUSTRATING!!

(I don’t mind Lumetri though ???? )

Hi All

Has anyone found a solution to this???

FCP7 had this ridiculously efficient functionality from around 2002. Do we really need to rewatch an entire cut in this day and age, or trust PPro to flag an overloading peak when playing back in ffwd! But I guess as long as we can edit VR in PPro all is good right ;-(

All the best,
