Hi there !
R3Dlink is a powerful CONFORMING tool. Very easy to use.
You can download the demo and see it working with your edit projects.
The main advantages of r3dlink over crimson are
A great visual interaction, for example
a) you can load all your tracks and see a visual representation of the FCP timeline where you can select each event and play it in the integrated player.
This way you can easily track errors in your conforming proccess.
b) cropping is very simple you really drag over the thumbnail and box select the area for cropping for each track.
c) visually you can mark just the media you want on your exports, this way you can export only the tracks you need each time. For example the green screen footage.
d ) R3dlink also generetares and HTML report where you have detailed information with thumbnails showing relevant info for each event on your timeline, if you need to me the data to another studio.
e ) As you can see R3Dlink is not just a GUI for the terminal commands of redline, also R3Dlink features an intensive search method that will try to automatically re-link media that was moved from the QT wrapper folders, or with extra characters appended on the .r3d filename.
the workflow is exactly like this
1. Edit online with QT proxies genereated from camera
2. Export the FCP's timeline to XML file.
3. Open the XML in R3DLINK Exporter.
-- here you could visually crop each event
-- and if you want select wich items you want to be exported
4. And finally Export to DPX or TIFF.
As the result you will have the same FCP timeline reflected in a folder strucuture following the same layers and event logic that the one in you FCP software.
I am agree with you about the software is more expensive than the crimson solution but just try it and you will see that r3dlink is a very powerful software with a high investment in software enginerring and User interface experience just to make things easier for you.
another useful information:
-- You can select the resize from 4K, 2K or quarter resolution.
-- And you can visually crop each event to select the zoom for each one. this will follow the resize output you select.
-- The software can deal with multiple layered FCP projects.
-- The debayer is the same algorithm and almost the unique available, the same that uses redcine and redalert. The button where you select the debayer "quality" in other packages is actually affecting the following parameteres.
deatil wich is set to HIGH in r3dlink.
OLPF compensantion set to (post sharpen) OFF in r3dlink.
Noise reduction se to MILD in r3dlink.
All this for $150 / year.
