good point Aristides,

I suppose you could edit everything as normal, and do your color correcting in a nested BM sequence. would be nice if the acceleration was there though.

so the mercury engine becomes unusable then.

how can yo output to a calibrated broadcast monitor without losing the mercury engine?

Hi there Yarim,

I really like the effect you have on the footage behind them when they’re on stage, I’m trying to do something similar, I’ve tried all night to create that look playing with CC Ball, glow, etc… but can’t get it.

would you mind to please maybe just give the low down on how to achieve that?

I’d really appreciate it!

thanks for your time,
Derrick

I have the Decklink HD Extreme, and I use P2 I’m currently editing a 37fps 720p project, and there are no problems at all in Premiere CS3 or CS4.

thanks,

Aonther question is in CS3 if I installed Colorista to the shared folder it does not show up in PP and AE, just in the one, if I install the PP and the AE installer, after effects keep on complaining about duplicate plug ins, and shows 1 Colorista, and PP shows 2. everything works fine, and redgiant could not give me clearer install instructions. it’s probably gonna be the same for CS4?

anyone experience something similar?

again, thanks for the help,
Derrick

Thanks I appreciate it,

I’ve installed CS4, so far so good. Now for the plugins. I’ll be sure to install them to the CS4 folder.

I guess I’m gonna render more often he he, but the CS4 suite brought so much to the table, it’s time to use it! he he.

thanks for the information!

Hi there,

soundbooth CS4 added the whole multitrack enviroment. It works really well with Premiere CS4, but it’s gonna be more work with Avid.

It also has a descent tool set. It’s not audition, but it will handle most situations. (meaning if your audio does not have major issues, you’ll be fine).

Hi Maurice,

thanks for the reply, I appreciate it.

Where would I get accurate pluge patterns from since my software only generates PAL color bars?

also after searching, I can’t find an article on the ebu site about calibrating a PAL monitor, do you perhaps have a link?

thanks again for the reply,
Derrick

thanks for all the effort to help me with this Bob, I appreciate it,

I’ve got XLR cables and what not, so I will pick up some converters for 1/4″ tp XLR, and RCA to 1/4″.

And wire this up some time today,

So I’m gonna do the following:

1. Take RCA from camera into 1/4″ input 1 and 2 of ALESIS MultiMix.

2. Take the BlackMagic XLR Left/Right OUT into the XLR 4 and 5 of the ALESIS Multimix (it’s got 8 XLR inputs).

3. Take the 1/4″ Speaker outputs of the ALESIS MULTIMIX into the Blackmagic XLR inputs (left/rigt).

4. Take the 1/4″ Control room monitor OUT (left/right) into the M-Audio ProjectMix I/O (which is my MAIN audio interface (ASIO device) for my computer, and goes to my monitors) 1/4″ into say channel 7/8 so that I can hear what’s going on.

I’ll give this a bash.

again, thanks for all the help!

Hi there,

thanks, I actually thought of trying that in the morning. I’ve also got a Alesis Multimix 16 that can operate as a standard mixing desk.

THANKS for the tip Bob I appreciate it. I’ll add it to the chain tomorrow, and give some feedback.

So just to check, I’m gonna use channel 1 and 2 on the mixer for the analog input, and use the speaker out (main mix out) jacks to go to the Blackmagic XLR’s?

thanks again,
Derrick
