R3D's wanted

[Arnold F.]

I would love to get some R3D's to see how they run on Premiere on both my macs (not optimistic). I have of course seen some threads where downloadable R3D's are advertised but none can be downloaded. Post or PM me. Thanks in advance.

Did you try this one yet?

Here's a quick candle light test R3D: http://www.double-bad.com/r3d/A002_C027_01298E_001.R3D

Mind if I ask why you aren't optimistic? Are they old Macs or copies of Premiere? Have you downloaded the necessary installers for R3D Epic footage?

Premiere 5.5 runs decently on my 5 year old Mac Pro with weak video card. Plays R3D files decently at 1/4 resolution, better at 1/8. Usable for now, but will upgrade computers soon.

I'm not optimistic based on the little bit of research I've done. I own a 2008 Macbook Pro 2.4Ghz dual core, 6GB, 500GB 7200, (don't know the video card now) and a Mac Mini 2.0 Ghz, 8GB, 500GB 7200, NVIDIA GeForce 9400. My Premiere is a brand new CS5.5.

If you have any suggestions on tweaking what I have to make it work better that would be superba. I may upgrade one or both to an internal SSD and run video files from an external FW800 or, in the case of the Macbook Pro, via eSata through a card.

I've looked at the RED Adobe installer and it says a Quad Core 3.0Ghz machine is necessary. None of the current Mac Pros have a 3.0Ghz processor. I assume this isn't a hard rule or no one would be using a Mac for this?

EDIT: Downloaded the files from Adobe and followed the replacement procedure for PP5.5. R3D file imports but, when trying to play, it looks like it's struggling to keep up, even at 10% viewing size.

Thank you all for the files.

Arnold, I can give you access to thousands of R3d files. Please sign up in the footage database http://www.iris32.com and I will provide you with free test credits for the R3D files. You can test 5k 4k 2k at all different frame rates.

Are there any R3Ds with audio? I've downloaded a number of R3Ds before, but none has audio.

BTW - here are instructions for getting audio to work with CS 5.5:

That post is for windows, but I believe that it should work on a Mac

Hi Arnold,

Here is a tutorial I put together for people new to RED workflows in Premiere. Hope it helps you

Brad:

Thank you very much; I'm certain it will. Struggling now with what a 2008 Macbook Pro will do for me.

I wouldn't mind some r3ds with sound. Anybody got some?
