    The reason that Premiere Pro does not allow you to change the settings is that in Premiere 6.5 there were many many complaints about problems related to settings. People changed things and could not get back to a working setting.

    It is pretty simple to import a project into a new project in order to change settings, and it is the compromise that was settled on.

    There are various differences between FCP and Premiere Pro. You’ll find Premiere Pro has advantages as well as disadvantages. Learn the product and then you’ll be a lot happier. Review all of the preferences and project settings.

    If you create a brand new project and create a new title, can you get it to crash just with two text boxes? Using “normal” fonts like Arial?

    There can be a huge difference or very little, depending on the footage itself.

    If you have the space, go for the 7MB. How long is your movie?

    I am very happy with the setup I bought at the Guitar Center.

    I picked up a little preamp, the brand is TUBEPre and the model TP1. It has drive and gain controls and a VU meter. It allows balanced inputs and phono inputs. It plugs neatly into my Audigy2 sound card line jack.

    The Mic I bought is the MXL 2001 from MXL, a division of Marshall Electronics. It is Cardioid with balanced output to my preamp.

    I find it quite easy to work with. Add a nice stand and a pop screen and you are all set for under $150.

    I write out a DVD without sound, and I have a rather long cord, so I can stand in a room away from the PC fans and watch it on the DVD as I record direct to the timeline to a PC in the other room. I have to set it up and then walk over to the mic, but it is easy enough to deal with a few seconds at the beginning and the end. Notice I said stand, and not sit. You will sound better in most cases.

    Sure. It works fine for most things. Just be far enough away from the PC fans when you record.

    If you need to see the footage, burn it to a DVD and watch it on a TV with the sound muted. A nice quiet room – especially a full clothes closet, works best.

  • Have you use the Audio Mixer to check to make sure your audio never, ever, exceeds 0dB.

    I would put 1 & 4 on one drive and 2 & 3 on another. That makes it easy to delete everything on the preview drive and start fresh for the next project.

    There is no reason you can’t rename them in the Project Window now. It doesn’t change the name on the drive, but it would give you a way to sort.

  • What are your output settings. It sounds like you may have gone too high on the data rate.

    Why not name the files as you capture them into a naming convention that allows an alpha sort by name? I don’t know if secondary sort is possible.
