NAB: Final Cut Server, Final Cut Studio 2, ProRes 422, IO-HD

[Simon R.]

... and no sign of Logic Pro. That sucks.

 

[zap2]

Which is exactly what the NAB is.

Well Pros use MacBook Pros and Mac Pros, so its still possible we'll see updated, as its not over yet. (No updates for Mac Pro because they are so new but you get the idea)

 

[pilotError]

Apple store is still down. Anything else showing up?

 

[wakerider017]

What is 4:2:2 aspect ratio?

 

[SWC]

Well it's not over yet, but...uh...Could have told you so.

It's the National Association of BROADCASTERS convention. It's for Pros only...Duh...

Anyone expecting any sort of consumer announcment was just foolish.

all of what he was looking for are considered professional products by apple....

 

[hyperpasta]

The event is definitely still going. According to Engadget, Apple is now going on to introduce a new application:

Color.

 

[Luis]

Just announced a new app: Color

 

[projectle]

This is clearly an event that is still in progress.

Or atleast, that is what I would assume since Engadget is continuing to report on stuff right now...

 

[Rocket Rion]

Yes! Motion 3 has 3D! Goodbye After Effects.

 

[amac4me]

What about DVD Studio Pro

 

[nuckinfutz]

Ok it's clear to me now.

DVD Studio Pro 5 is not a part of FCS anymore. My guess is there will be a seperate program announced this upcoming week.

DVD SP 5 will add full HD DVD and Blu-ray authoring support and offer perhaps Dolby and DTS surround sound encoding options.

There is no need for FCP Extreme. You have the ProRes codec and IO-HD which gives you access to 4k editing.

Those that thought MBP and Cinema Displays were going to be announced need to wake up. This was Pro event via invite. Not an Apple public tradeshow.

Nice upgrade and I agree with the decision (I'm guessing) to pull DVD SP 5 from the bundle. Some people "just" need the authoring tools. Making them pay $1299 didn't make much sense IMO.

..but, as always the interface for macrumorslive.com is amazing and needless to say every other apple event for the past few years has been me and my eyes glued to macrumors

thanks arn and crew for a great job almost all the time

same here, thanks

one days soon, my first mac will come

I guess Apple missed the memo last year with the 17" MBP

 

[hoop]

I'm sorry for the stupid question, but do you need the IO box to use the new codec?

 

[anubis]

WHAT?!?!?! No wifi widescreen touch-screen 40-GB flash-based full video ipod???????? APPLE SUCKS, I HATE APPLE AND WONT EVER BUY FROM THEM AGAIN!!!!!11

... I'm just pre-empting the stupid comments that are sure to follow on this thread about the lack of consumer product updates at NAB, even though lots of people always seem to think there will be and get let down year after year.

 

[MacNemesis]

Patience

no new dvd studio features?

It's not over yet..

 

[inkswamp]

So FCS isn't due until next month (according to Engadget) which makes me wonder why the Apple store is even closed at all. Do they usually close it down for product announcements that are that far off?

I don't expect any consumer products to be discussed at NAB but I wonder if the iMacs and Minis will see quiet updates once the store is back up, given how overdue they are for it. Does seem curious that it's down for an event like NAB.

Edit: just came back up while I was posting. No new non-pro stuff. Oh well, Tuesday is only two days from now.

 

[CmdrLaForge]

Can't wait to get my hands on Motion 3, I have been looking for a reason to leave AE in the dust, I hope this is the killer update.

Why do you want to do that ?

Anyway - great show (for Pro's)

 

[psycoswimmer]

U.S. Apple Store is back up... Final Cut Studio 2 on the front page.

The products will be there today just wont ship for a month.

New "Color" Application

There's your new Color application to give you the better color correction you are looking for (can't remember who was hoping for that).

good point, could they be taking pre-order thou?

 

[dannyallen34]

They do when you can pre-order the products on the Store

 

[k2k koos]

Where is logic pro 8 ?

Although I feel the same, the event is not yet over, but realistically chances are getting slim.....
