Hi Chris,

On 3 of our 4 FCP stations we use JVC monitors. 2 for SD (TM-H1750CG) with Kona 2 and Dexklink Extreme and 1 for HD (JVC DT-V1710CGU) with Kona LHe. They have been very accurate for CC. Just make sure all the settings match your system specs.

bye,

Jeff

If I’m not mistaken, it is already too late! We want to update our two FCP 4.5 suite at the office. And the response I got from our reseller is;

-If I want to pay the upgrade price, we have to wait until the universal version ships;
-If we want the PPC only version now, we have to buy the full price suite even thogh we are entitled to the upgrade price;

I told my resseller it is BS…to go ahead and talk to his Apple contact to get us the PPC version at upgrade price…it has now been more than three weeks and we are still waiting!

So, on top of that, if we wait for the upgrade price and get the Universal version, I just hope we won’t have to wait for new drivers, because that will really sucks!!!

regards,

Jeff

Hello,

My workaround goes like this; In FCP, capture via firewire in an Apple DV (easy setup) project. When you’re done capturing, change your FCP easy setup to Blackmagic DV. That way you will be able to edit while previewing your work through your BM card in your ref monitor.

regards,

Jeff

As far as I can tell (before we switched to K2) everything was great, except for the framebuffer in After Effect that was not playing real time.

have a nice day,
