Apple NAB Media Event Invites

as much as we would all love to get our new OS, Mac Pros, iMacs and so on, just based on the colors and layout-i think it will be most likely new Pro apps

I personally do not think that we will see Lepoard untill WWDC-thats just me

You are probably right but seeing as how there are a number of Leopard specific discussions and classes that are being offered at the WWDC, one would hope that Leopard would be released prior to the conference so that developers could have a chance to see where the problems lie with their existing software.

Even two or three weeks of public release of Leopard would significantly help developers with specific issues that they could site at the conference discussions. This would be especially true if Apple were holding back some secret features as SJ had mentioned at MWSF 07.

Why?
The adult film industry is adopting HD since Sony says no adult content on blur-ray.
Game over.
HD wins. "

OHHH BOY!
I can now look to the porn industry to direct the future of HD and Mac users!

Get real.

When is Apple going to support the next Hotness in compression.

Wavelet Compression

CRC-WVC

Sounds interesting. h.264 is pretty powerful but if this product in it's infancy can be competitive then who knows what power it may contain. I say FCP 7 needs to add some sort of Wavelet Compression. The less data we can send over WAN links yet still keep quality the better. IMO of course

I was using wavelet for broadcast television in 1993 at 12:1 compression and nobody blinked an eye. Looked great. It was used in our editing system, the videocube (version 1.0!)

Also at Musikmesse late this month Apple will announce Logic Pro 8 which will be a huge update and finally LP8 will be a peer application in a Final Cut Pro workflow. So if STP 2 doesn't fit the bill LP8 steps in with perfect roundtrip support.

Very true, and I hope you are right.. I make music that I want to use for my multimedia-projects. Soundtrack is useless for that task, adn I have not yet bought a software package that will help me do this, as I wait for the next revision of Logic, which will be a very important part of Final Cut Studio for a lot of us.

Hmmm... Maybe Apple pulls off a segmenting-stunt and releases several versions of FCS, one for musicians with Logic 8 in it. :)
hehe Wouldn't be very Apple, but I am allowed to dream aren't I?

By the way, this thread is not really about BR vs HDDVD, regardless of how the last two pages contains nothing but that debate..

I'm sorry, what is your point?:confused:

My (rather obvious) point is that the only English-language rumor suggesting a Logic update (or complete overhaul, possibly with a new name) being released at MusikMesse, is based on a translation error and is thus wholly unreliable. That is relevant to this thread because a poster inquired about Logic possibly being released at NAB instead, because he or she was under the misinformed notion that Apple would not be represented at MusikMesse. Several others corrected the latter mistake, while I commented on the former.

As simple as possible: Apple will be at MusikMesse, but rumors about new Logic at this event are as yet totally unsubstantiated (as far as I know).

Sorry to the rest of you for making a redundant post, but someone didn't get it, and/or didn't read all the relevant posts :rolleyes: .

I think the 720p downloads are much more likely. Movies maybe, TV shows likely. They may drop some Leopard hints, though.

I doubt that we see anything consumer related at NAB. This is a pro show and we might see new FCS and Mac Pros / Mac Book Pros. Thats about it. The exciting news will be the new features in Final Cut Studio e.g. RED support or similar things.
 
My Prediction: Leopard with resolution independent UI supporting multitouch and new devices supporting them: the new iMac and new cinema displays
 
Since it is a pro event I think they might upgrade the Mac Pro and the displays. Leopard will not be released but the secret futures might be revealed before its may release ;)
 
What about releasing new iMacs with Leopard on NAB and to show us the new PRO-Stuff at WWDC!? (I think that would be great :D)

Last time, i think, it was the same..first one was a new iMac with Tiger, then the others came a lil bit later.
 
Photokina again

This reminds me of the Photokina event which featured an invite clearly stating that Aperture would be the focus. Everyone still had fantasies of new hardware that did not materialize, creating huge disappointment. I expect the Focus to be on Final Cut, and any new hardware to be orientated around FC, Macpros, ACD's, a raid would be neat.
 
Regarding my wish for an "extended" Final Cut Studio-bundle, Apples recent Phofilmusigner-campaign makes me think of it as a remote possiblity that Logic could be included.. :D With emphasis on remote.. Unfortunately..

No, I read your post and what I was commenting on was that the poster said that Apple is not going to be/have a booth at MusikMesse.
That is obviously wrong. I think maybe you didn't understand my post. :rolleyes:

Take a chill pill or go back to bed.

That's a very good point......Are they really going to announce hardware?

No point launching Final Cut Studio Extreme if there's no super hardware to run it on. HP have had eight-core machines out for a couple of months now, yet FCS doesn't run on HP kit. Apple can plug this hole at the top end of the line very easily. It's a simple processor swap out on the existing MP motherboard.

Eight-core is pretty likely IMO, although the main point of the event will be the software.
 
Just Not True

Please do not post unless you are actually informed. Your information is quite out of date. The porn industry is on both sides and actually may favor blu ray. But saying that there isn't going to be porn for blu ray is just WRONG. educate yourself before you post.
