Lion has the Quadro drivers already installed so it’s not that bad. You do need to go to nvidia’s site and download the CUDA drivers. They show up in System Preferences. Once you install, open the panel and check for updates. Once you have that, you should be good to go.

[Jeremy Garchow] ”
But what does this mean for us Mac shlubs?”Mac shlubs still have the Quadro 4000 and I hope that eventually Mac users will have the same options as PC users. As with anything related to Apple, it’s a) complicated b) usually up to Apple to decide what’s best for you.
Creative Cloud…hmmm, I don’t know. why don’t you message me offline.

I also posted a new GPU article yesterday and I was going to do a new post, but thought some people would consider spam so am just putting it here: NVIDIA Maximus and Premiere Pro

I work a lot with the NVIDIA guys and will be seeing Greg Estes later this week. Our partnership is strong and I see only good things coming from this.

[Shane Ross] “Adobe Premiere Pro Cs 5.5 on a QUAD core Mac, is sluggish. I have that at work and have been evaluating it. Doesn’t deal with the NATIVE footage well.”
As Shane knows, CS5 or CS5.5 is all about balance. If you have 1 core and 32GB of RAM, you’re wasting money on RAM. If you have 8 cores and 2GB of RAM, you’re starving your CPU’s for memory. CPU speed, disk throughput, memory, GPu and bus speed are all important components for any 64-bit system.
As for handling native footage, I’d love to hear where it’s not handling well as that is a hallmark of Adobe – handling native footage well.

Hi Bill –
Yes, I agree that this model is more efficient and at face value more profitable.

[Walter Soyka] “Apple created the category.”
I agree in the sense that there wasn’t a single application that combined management (Bridge) and editing (Photoshop). As you mentioned though, Adobe was already hard at work on Lightroom 1.0 and it quickly stole Apeture’s thunder for two reasons (from my POV): First intuitive UI and features, second broad camera raw support.
I wonder where Apeture would be if it hadn’t been dropped to $79.00 and put on the App store. I hear many ASC’s use Lightroom for a quick look of what they want to see on the video by taking a still out from a shot. Lightroom is easily one of my favorite Adobe programs because it is just plain fun!

Thanks David – glad to hear that you’re getting good results.
It is interesting to note, that you can edit via the text in the metadata panel. Mark an in on one word, out on the other. A paper edit of sorts.

Well the Soundbite stuff is a different technology that has a different approach than the technology we put into Premiere Pro. I have a license of Soundbite and will hopefully have some time to give it a try.
Premiere Pro has three ways to associate dialog with video.
1 – Adobe’s speech to text engine analyzes the media and gives you the results. Mileage varies based on a lot of factors – it can be really good or really bad.
2 – You can type up a text file and associate it with the video and then run the speech analyze function and it will turn out very good results.
3 – You can use Adobe Story and associate the dialog of the script to the clip(s). High quality results.Dennis – Adobe guy

[Brent Dunn] “Adobe on the other hand have taken advantage of this opportunity and produced an amazing product that has great workflow and fast transcoding times.”
Thank you Brent. By transcoding, are you talking about rendering final outputs or converting footage to something else to edit?
