January 22, 2013 at 5:45 pm in reply to: CS6 (6.0.2) crashes on quit every time, any ideas?I’m having the exact same problem except after I re-installed Premiere Pro instead of crashing every time it hangs and literally even a day later won’t close unless I force quit it.
I’ve never had this problem before, so it’s really frustrating.
I’m using Mac Pro 2010, OS 10.7.5 with 32 gigs of Ram, Nvidia 4000 Mac.
If you figure out what’s happening please share!

Hi Brad,
Creating that exact look is extremely easy to do in Adobe After Effects with it’s native filter set and once you create a preset that you like, you just save it and then re-use it whenever you want.
However since you were using Vegas, than I am assuming you are looking for a solution that comes native in Adobe Premiere Pro, i.e. the editing program.
Sorry to have to tell you this but as far as I know there is no native plug-in that does this inside of premiere. You could of course create a clip and add all the individual “video effects” and tweak the settings and then any time you want to use it, copy and paste all those effects to the new clip. But this really is a hassle.
However Red Giant Software Magic Bullet Looks does all of this and more and it is just a one click application or a very diverse set of “look” defining tools.
You can download a free trial and check it out if you want.
There are several other similar products but that is my weapon of choice for the last several years.
Best,
Darius

Hi Andree,
No problem…do you happen to know where I could find the configuration file! Sorry, new to the MC Transport device and software.

Hi Andree,
I had the same problem but figured it out, you can see it here https://wp.me/p1hbRg-e
or I’ll paste it here for you as well:
I recently made the switch from PC to MAC for the long-form documentary I’m making. A decision that so far, I definitely regret. But more on that later.
For the moment I thought I’d start posting notes about problems I’ve run into and solutions to them that I’ve found in case any one else runs into these same problems.
I purchased the Avid/Euphonix Transport for use in my editing as having a jog/shuttle definitely speeds things up remarkably once you are accustomed to them.
However I didn’t notice that Adobe Premiere was not supported and this is my editing program of choice at the moment although I do have FCP and Media Composer 5.52.
I googled around and even contacted Euphonix/Avid support and no one seemed to have a solution.
In frustration I then ordered a Contour Shuttle Pro v2 (which is sort of like downsizing from a Porche to a Honda. Both great cars, but which one would you kick out of bed first? Exactly.)
So while waiting for international shipping I tried a bit of a wild idea and I installed the drivers for both the Bella Pro Premiere keyboard (which I don’t have) and the Contour Shuttle and then began customizing the MC Transport commands to match the command keys in Adobe Premiere.
As a note; you might not need to do this on your system. I’m using a Mac 12 core and this workaround only worked once I installed those drivers but logically speaking you shouldn’t need to do it.
And hey! It works!!!!
Some things aren’t as perfect as they are in Avid or FCP such as the shuttle wheel shifting to different speeds smoothly. But damn! The jog wheel works perfectly.
Customizing the Soft Keys just involves ensuring that Adobe Premiere Pro CS 5.5 is open and then choosing the soft key around the wheel and once it is highlighted in the EUCON controller, then assigning a KEY command.
For example your center three keys above the jog wheel should have J, K, and L assigned accordingly.
And however you wish to customize it after that. I use for cutting at timeline (CTRL + K), next edit (page down), previous edit (page up) and it is working like a charm.
All the other soft keys including shift command respond the same.
To program the jog wheel. Select it and choose Command, select Wheel from the drop down, then select jog right and choose special command and pick “right arrow” and then repeat for select jog left and choose special command and choose “left arrow.”
The shuttle you have to choose the shuttle and again add a wheel command and then in choose shuttle and create a new shuttle wheel command. Then from shuttle drop down, choose for Section 0 add key and set it to K (stop), then for Shuttle Section 1 add L key once and for each shuttle section add one more L key. Shuttle section 7 has LLLLLLL assigned to it.
For the shuttle -1 Section choose J and for each minus section following that add one more J.
It’s not perfect but it certainly does what I need it to do!
Hope that helps anyone else out there.
Best,
Darius
