The more things change the more they stay the same.

People should read this article. Google has it down.. Just read this and insert any product you wish, the lessons remain the same.

This is good reading for all of us, RED, and third parties alike.

I only wish Apple would read this:

...instead of waiting for others like Apple or Assimilate to catch up here.

Catch up to what?

. Btw, SpeedgradeDI did not require an overtuned 8core to decode RAW in realtime, 4core "off the shelf" was more than enough,

Neither does SCRATCH or any of the other programs working on this.

But it is required for the quality level that SCRATCH can decode in realtime for realtime manipulation and realtime output. And that *realtime* quality and stability level with R3D is alone in its class right now.. If it was not the best product out right now for these demands, then other manufacturers and their customers would be shouting it to the rooftops.

Bottom line - the SDK has been released. It will get better.

If you have jobs right now - *today* - then promises of future performance get you nowhere. There is what exists in promises, and what exists today for today's productions.

Caveat Emptor.

Luki,

it was sooo predictable clear that you are going to comment on this

As it has been pointed out before, RED should be as open as Adobe to third parties. Nothing else to say.

All interested poeple are intelligent enough to see and compare products like Scratch, Color, Nucoda, Pablo, SpeedgradeDI, AVID, Adobe (to name a few) and decide on their own which workflow fits best their needs. I encourage every user to evaluate packages deeply before placing any investments. In both cases its always a serious investment and needs to be handled seriously.

There is to much promises and to few existing features out there.

Thanks listening,
Axel

I suppose so... if you implicitly say something misleading about SCRATCH, then chances are I will pop up!

2. A post solution that does not make the editor wish to commit harakiri is just around the corner.

For PC or MAC ?

Luki,

so you are a pop up?

Don't get blocked...
