Thanks guys. Just for grins I think I will give the “use render” approach a try and compare render times. Im sure it will slow down the process during the creative phase and that might be the best reason, not to do it.

I just gave up on the track approach. Doing it as a clip approach is way easier. I just make the key frame, go the the audio effects window and enter the db level. Done. I did however put in a feature request to be able to right click on any key frame and enter a numeric that way. Im not sure how many other folks are going to request it, but I sure loved and needed that function in FCP and Avid.

Well, upon further inspections its the CLIP volume key frames that are displayed in the Audio Effects area. When you are trying to do TRACK key frames on the timeline, its necessary to click on the SHOW KEY FRAMES icon at the start of the TL audio track. When you switch to SHOW TRACK KEY FRAMES suddenly the clip cannot be loaded in the SOURCE window (which kind of makes sense) and so the TRACK key frames are not visible for numeric entry.

So the problem with no ability for numeric entry assigning key frames a db still exists.

There is a way to enter numbers in the effects panel for the audio track, but the right click option is still a more efficient and direct way to do this.

That makes sense. That how I used to do it on the Avid DS. I just lay out the takes on 10 video tracks, sync them, cut on the beat (or off) and check each track for the optimal shot. A bit slower than Multicam, but functional.

Alex-“That same friend is currently working on a 75-minute multi-cam project shot simultaneously on six DSLRs and so far Premiere CS5 is performing like a champ. ”

So how is your friend working around the Multicam limitation of only 4 cameras?

I will let others address the Mac vs PC performance issue.

But from my experience (Mac Pro), Prores works wonderfully with Premiere Pro and AE. On a PC you only can buy a playback version of Prorss. Since I have FCP7 on my Mac I can playback and create Prores files. They are the default choice for Mastering at the moment.

I was afraid you might bump into some limitations like that. I suggest you write a feature request to have that ability.

Paul, the reason I thought maybe that Premiere Pro was having issues with the servers were based on things discussed in this link…
