Change both sequence settings and preview files to ProRes 422… your funky text files will be a thing of the past.

Are you certain the monitor is capable of displaying your chosen frame rate? If the material is 24p you may have to chose 60i playback through the BM card, if the monitor can’t natively display 24p.

It’s not typical on my 8-core MP 3.1, however I do have an nvidia card running under Cuda.

But Herb, even if the renders were actually ten times faster, would that boost an editor’s productivity by 10X?

I would say that if the job were only rendering then that might be true, but alas most editors actually edit and do a whole of storytelling.

Not so sure your argument is a winning argument Shane – frankly, if Apple can optimize their hardware and software to make the combination work together in a more effective way, that’s just good business.

Meanwhile, Bill’s declaring that faster renders create a 10X increase in productivity is like suggesting that if you drive to the office 10X faster your entire workday will gain a 10X increase in productivity.

You didn’t say how you’re connecting your drives, but more importantly, you will never find a single spinning hard drive faster than the 200MB/sec you’ve already found. If you want faster throughout you’ll need a RAID with two or more drives striped together. A good rule of thumb to remember is, every time you double the number of drives in a striped set you effectively double the throughput.

Please define “productivity boost” in real terms please, if you can. And, what is the source of the 10X number you mention, and how precisely is that calculation quantified?

If they are mixed there is nothing you can do. You can only affect changes in relative levels if you have split tracks with separate music, separate dialogue, and separate sound effects.

Zero difference… And, if that’s what your audience is paying attention to you’ve got much bigger issues to worry about.

Nick is absolutely correct, 7.0 was crap the day it was released. If you don’t update to 7.03 there is really no reason to ask questions here, because no one will be able to help you with the issues you’re having. If you’re afraid to upgrade just clone your system drive to a FireWire or USB hard drive before doing the update using Carbon Copy Cloner. It’s free!!!
