    Audible alert when recording stops

    Is there a way to get a beep or a tone of some sort to let us know that recording has stopped? Have you ever hit the start/stop button and didn't quite press it in all the way only to record a bunch of people standing around or the crew adjusting lights? And to your horror you ended up not...

    FCPX suddenly not reading .RMD file

    I have a video I'm working on and everything is going great. I render a first draft to my client and they love it but want to make some text changes. Cool. I open the project 3 days later and suddenly several of my clips look really weird. I finally figure out FCPX isn't properly reading the...

    21:9 Monitors - Suggestions?

    I need to upgrade from my older Apple Thunderbolt Displays. the TB Displays I have are first generation dos they are TB1. Trying to push 5K R3Ds through them is a pain. I have two monitors but a lot of times I end up unplugging one of them just so I have enough bandwidth to preview 5K R3Ds in...

    Image shift on 85mm lens

    Hi, guys, Yesterday I was playing around with my Milvus 85mm on my Scarlet, on a slider. I noticed that when I made a move the image would shift around as if I had a bad Image Stabilization on the camera. 1. Milvus lenses do not have built in IS. 2. The type work I do I use this slider...

    Am I a fool for Apple?

    I want down and dirty opinions here. Am I a fool for holding out hope for Apple? I know this has been discussed before but honestly is it time to jump ship or am I just foolish to hope that Apple will return to the professional market and stop insulting us with inferior tech at premium prices...

    Battery Jargon: which is best?

    Which of these two batteries is best? 14.8 VOLT - 97 Wh 15 AMP - 93 Wh I get the Watt Hours - that's a no brainer. But what's the difference in a battery with a 14.8 Volts and a 15 Amps? I'm just confused by the AMP vs. VOLT specs

    Can an older Mac be upgraded faster than a new nMP?

    I have an older Mac Pro, the silver tower kind. I'm looking at it and wondering of I can upgrade the GPU, CPU, and RAM to make it faster than nMP for considerably less cash. I was at the Apple store yesterday trying to decide what my next computer will be. Sadly after my experience there I'm...

    Probably a dumb question about 5K

    In anticipation of the arrival of my Scarlet-W I have been having loads of fun downloading R3Ds from around the world just to make sure my setup can handle things efficiently. To my delight it all does. So this may be a dumb question but some of the files I've downloaded are from older Epics in...

    Scarlet-W - faster MiniMag or Larger Screen?

    Hi, guys.... those of you who know me here know that for the past couple years I have lamented not owning a RED yet. Well my day has FINALLY arrived!!! Next week I order my Scarlet-W. I have my package all set up but I've decided to upgrade one of the items. So my question is this. Would you...

    RED Documentary

    How great would hit be to see a documentary about our most-loved company? I love documenteries and with so much talent here why couldn't this happen? I'm especially fascinated with the early days of companies when they were on the cusp of greatness. I love the Apple story when Jobs and Woz were...

    Epic-W

    I'm starting this thread to get the conversation rolling and to start the guessing game we all love so well. Jarred slipped up and hinted at the possibility of a new Epic coming soon. So... let the games begin. I'll begin with a post of mine discussing resolution guess from a different...

    I just want a shot

    Hi guys, I'm not sure the ethics of this or if I am way out of line for asking this on here so please feel free to scold me if necessary. Some of you know me here and know that I am not a Red user YET. But I feel confident that if you dropped a Scarlet or Epic in my lap I could hit the ground...
