Apple NAB Special Event This Weekend
- Thread starter MacRumors
- Start date
- Sort by reaction score
I will be there, here's what I'm thinking:
Final Cut Red - 4k Red editing soulution
Final Cut Super Extreme - High end cards and Macs with control surfaces/breakout boxes, etc. (could be the same as the Red thingy)
Logic Pro update - Final Logic
And I expect Jannard to be there with his new camera and announce the first shipments.

But they were only recently updated.
I'll be way pissed if my 3 month old 17 is made obsolete.
they were updated last october, so it's been a while, and a refresh would be nice. buyers guide shows the current amount of time since update is nearing the average refresh cycle time.
I support this response
I support this response because 64bit architecture (not 32/64bit architecture) running on a lower power 'dual' or 'quad' (insert plural) 64bit chip, could provide a "blow away Demo" for Final Cut, et. al. "followed by, But it needs Leopard so we will ship in Oct."
Having spent a lot of time using various 64bit Dec Alpha machines, 64bit SGI machines, and eventually moving to the Mac and FCP, this would appear to be a possible next step.
I also get the impression laptops would not be 'hardware updated' until October and a low power quad with a display update would be nice.
On another note, one could imagine how Apple TV, iPhone, and 64bit architecture Mac, with a fast 'bus', could 'nicely work together'.
Probably a blow away Demo followed by, "But it needs Leopard so we will ship in Oct."

What could they update besides graphics cards and HD? If I am not mistaken Intel dose not have new mobile chips, do they?
Pro Section
Honestly ... it feels to me like it is time to break this Forum not only into a Page 1 and Page 2 Section but also create a new PRO section ... because it looks like that some members here forget that some of us, use Apple Products also to make a living with it ! It is great that you can get lots of Apple products for the regular consumer ... but in regards to the event on sunday for example ... this is for me much much more important then all this
TV, iPhone, iPod, etc. talk .... it seriously gets on my nerves to be interupted reading some really essential postings about essential products for Pro´s, by loads of home-user comments that are not in regards to the original posting from MacRumours ... and on top ... SHUT DOWN THOSE "SWITCHER" PEOPLE ... WILL YA !!!

SHUT DOWN THOSE "SWITCHER" PEOPLE ... WILL YA !!! I can't wait to see what Apple comes out with. If there is an update to Final Cut Express and it looks like it worth the upgrade pirce, I'll go for it. I need something to ease the pain after the delay of Leopard...

here here. I'm not a Pro user yet but i still get annoyed at peoples lack of ability to recognise the divide!
I'm hoping to see an update to the 15" MBP as well (easier to service hard drives and 4GB ram ceiling are on my wish list) An *option* for a higher res HD screen would be nice as well... (for both the 17 and 15...)
I expect that there will be some kind of FCP Studio announcement, and I would hope that RED support would be involved.. And given the amount of storage needed for that use, I'd expect to see an update to the xServe RAID as well.

Oh, don't worry. Pro users will get their turn, too.
They will expect Pro applications, pro hardware. Instead, they will be treated to iGame. Or perhaps iBlender.
Don't let the conference name fool you.
wow, in 4 years here, I've NEVER seen such whining as is going on right now. The delay to leopard seems to have turned over 50% of this board in to whiny, semi-trolls. So you have to live with Tiger for a few more months. Not exactly the end of the world!
As far as NAB goes, it's my birthday, so I'm hoping apple will give me a nice present of new MBPs. that said, if they just release new final cut products, that's fine by me. It's a professional show aimed at very high end users.

Me too Spooky I've been hanging on and hanging on for new ACDs which will incorporate iSights (whether internal or a new external device) and IR ports for us Mac Pro users. I've been in the fortunate position of having been able to borrow my brother's 20", but having seen how much more productive Aperture and Final Cut Express are on the 30-inch displays in the Apple stores, I know what size I'm hankerin' after
Essentially, nothing really new until October as far as iMacs, Minis, etc. - to coincide with 10.5...

I think this site is confused as it is. It's called MACrumors, but it should beyond doubt be APPLErumors these days, as not much of what is reported is about the Mac. Call it Applerumors and have a Mac-part and a "toy"-part, where the iPhone and iPod-people can do whatever they want.
How about AVCHD support?
For my two cents, I'd like to see Apple announce AVCHD format support in FC and in iMovieHD. There are a lot of us out there with one of the new crop of consumer HD camcorders and no software (on any platform) to edit our footage.

Mmmm......I don't know, not at NAB (of course) however, possibly at WWDC.
The iMacs are overdue for an upgrade and the Mini's are waaaaaay overdue.

pro and consumer sections
Although I recognize that some subjects/stories may be of interest equally to professionals and consumers, I think the time has come for separate sections/threads for pros and consumers.
This would mirror Apple's own evolution from a computer-only company to a computer and consumer electronics company.
Page 3: Pros only?
Perhaps with stricter rules governing outbursts.
