FINAL CUT PRO X now supports native R3D

[Jarred Land]

Apple's been listening.. FCP X just received updates today that provide native R3D support.

Final Cut has a really trick new feature that does proxy generation in the background for all R3D media so you can work in realtime on almost any device while still referencing the full R3D's for all export commands.

This is really interesting...

 

[Bob Gundu]

Color??!

 

[John Marchant]

Simple and slick I wonder if it will live link or batch refresh looks via the rmds when changes are made in RCX? RCX is far and away the better tool for tweaking the basic grade IMHO, but premiere doesn't play ball in this regard.

the plot thickens...

That means FCP 7 also support R3D files?

THANK GOD!

No no, FCP 7 & Color are as they've always been.

FCP X now supports R3D directly.

We just wrapped everything needed for Apple workflow, whether it's for Final Cut Studio or FCP X in to one installer.

So:

* FCP X: native R3D support (NEW)

* FCP 7: QuickTime reference support (as it was)

* Color: native R3D support (as it was)

 

[Rob Lohman]

Sorry for the confusion. See my updated post above. We'll clarify it some more. Color always had native R3D support (and Rocket to some level), so that's nothing new.

And so are you so: THANK YOU, too !

Edit, Never mind.

 

[Filip Vandoorne]

[Adrian T.]

Finally! :thumbsup:
Got tired of some of the quirks and bugs in Premiere... :closedeyes:

 

[Ketch Rossi]

See, I know I did good in keeping FCP X...

 

[Mark Phelan]

Love it!

The idea of cutting a long form narrative on FCPX makes me cringe.

 

[Dylan Macleod CSC]

My love hate relationship with FCPX just slid more towards love! Thanks Red!

The idea of cutting a long form narrative on FCPX makes me cringe.

I agree Paul, but I must say transcoding without a rocket in Avid, then swapping files leave something to be desired in Avid. I'm about to start a big project with a lot of footage, and now I'm wondering if I should think twice about this.

 

[Paul Harb]

As an editor Ill take the pain on the front end. I dont know how anyone can cut long form multicam narrative in FCPX. Id rather spend 4 weeks transcoding and editing on an Avid.
