You’ve opened my eyes to a problem that I didn’t even know existed. Since transcripts are the life-blood of video work I naively assumed that they were freely available in the podcast space. Spotify has an article on their site giving podcasters advice and transcripts are strongly advocated so perhaps this oversight will change.
https://podcasters.spotify.com/blog/your-podcast-needs-transcriptsThis American Life set the standard for audio storytelling many years ago and it’s significant influence permeates across the podcast spectrum.
And for those that want to become better video editors/storytellers, listening to audio storytelling can be very helpful and instructional. The pacing, music, sound effects and overall sound design make all the difference.

I don’t care what’s up with other NLE’s but your statement Tim about your avoidance of podcasts is troubling. Some of the best audio storytelling is happening exclusively in the podcast space. Sadly though, like so many other media forms, you have to wade through an ocean of truly mediocre stuff.
A few gems I’ve had the pleasure to enjoy: “The Clearing”, “Gangster Capitalism, “Running from Cops”, “To live and Die in LA” and the now legendary, “Missing Richard Simmons.”
I was late to the podcast world but I’m very happy to have discovered them because there’s spectacular storytelling happening.

Just don’t expect it to greatly improve the Premiere workflow. NVMe is lightning fast but Premiere doesn’t fully take advantage of that speed. You’re still at the mercy of your overall mobo PCIe lanes, CPU, GPU thruput.

ah, ok. I think you’ll be very happy with the purchase. I have converted to all NVMe for media and it works extremely well.

Out of sheer curiosity, what’s the market for Edius X? I ask partly because in 25 years of working in this business I’ve never come across anyone who’s ever used Edius.

The only thing I would change would be the NVMe. I have the Sabrent 2T and it’s excellent and considerably cheaper than the EVO Plus.

I’m advocating that you convert (transcode) H264 media to Cineform instead of making proxies.

[Yiannis Botetsios] “where Colin says that if your footage is in H.264 which is compressed you should never change it to cineform cause you can not add metadata and that the only thing that it does is to make the file larger with no reason.”
In general Colin makes very informative videos. However, in this case his info is somewhat misleading. He’s correct that if you create proxies there’s no need to convert H264 footage to Cineform since Cineform files take up a lot of hard drive space. But what he neglects to mention is that 4k H264 media is not what you want to be working with in edit at all. And therefore I’d argue that a better workflow is to convert all H264 media to Cineform instead of making proxies. The benefit is that you won’t use the H264 media at any stage of your project and instead, you’ll be able to work with maximum efficiency from rough cut to final delivery.

It’s easier to do VO records in Audition rather than Premiere.

I abandoned the Mac platform five years ago and I have no regrets. There’s a ton of online resources available to help you select the components for a custom PC build. Carey Holzman’s YouTube builds, Linus Tech Tips and many others can give you detailed info on how to do a custom PC build.
