    Thanks so much…

    Yes its a thunderbolt iMac. Have I doomed myself from using three different cameras to catch 3 different angles? One reply said its a “nightmare..” ” nothing will match” because of the codecs. what are your thoughts? Is it still possible?

    Are we talking massive amounts of time? how would you set up the external 4TB drive? should i not set anything up until FCPX comes out? i have about 300 gigs of footage from the next 5 and iphone archived.. and the canon footage is still on tape.

    In addition.. its already maxed out at 16gigs of ram.. i guess that will have to do. i only got the iMac instead of the Mac pro to keep the whole project under a $10,000 budget…. perhaps this was a mistake.

    Thanks so much,

    Cheers,

    Thunderbolt iMac 27″ i7 3.4, 1TB internal HD, 16G Ram and AMD Radeon HD 6970M with 2G VRam. WD 4TB and 500G WD External HD
