It amazing how much better things taste when they use real sugar instead of inexpensive corn syrup.

If it’s mainly for graphics then buy it for the program that you create them in. If you’re using it for video treatment, keep it inside Avid. Nesting is a pain but faster than dealing with AE plus better performance. To help with the nesting I routed the command to the up & down arrow. It makes it a lot faster to step in.

If you want the best (and most expensive) go with Firstcom. They have it all. Most of their selections are split tracks. When my Firstcom contract was up I decided to go with someone else and save a few bucks & I’ve regretted it ever since.

According to the Kona manual page 35, it recommends that the ATTO UL4D card goes on top.

>>>Don’t use AVID as an excuse.
I’m not. SDTI was never a thought. I only mentioned Avid to say that I’m not used to configuring your own system with different cards & boxes.

>>>I still don’t understand why you can’t take the RCA outputs of the K Box into your mixer
You don’t know my engineer!

Thanks for the help. From reading your other posts sound like you got a handle on all this.

Hey Bob,

I have the KBOX. RCA will not work for me, I need XLR.

SDTI would be nice but I’d have to convert all 10 decks & a router. I got a price of $30k for that conversion. Right now I’m using SDI & analog balanced audio to go to all the machines.

The I/O looks good but I have 3 more FCPs to add to our facility in the next two months. I’d rather not spend the $9k if I don’t have to.

With Avid, I’ve never had these situations because you can’t choose anything other than how much RAM do you want. This is all new territory. Just trying to figure this all out & be a good steward of God’s money. The problem is we have a big, little setup here and making 1 decision effects a whole lotta other things

Thanks for your input. I’ll figure it out.

On the other side of the water…
Promax says they’ll receive some this week.
B&H photo says that’ll get some in two weeks.
I ordered one from my local dealer, I’m guessing around that time.

All this for $25/month-well worth it. This is a cool site for the beginner, but also for the experienced. How many times have you wanted to do one little thing in a program but don’t have the time to weed through hours of tutorials? Lynda.com breaks everything out into QT clips that are usually 7 minutes or less. Very efficient.
