Need multicam capabilities, on PC/XP?
 

Hi,

I love how FCP does multi-cam editing. Additionally, I am looking forward to getting the latest version that can do multi-format (hdv, dv...)/multi-cam editing.

So, this is a question for all/only the PC users out there:

What application do you prefer/use when it comes to multi-cam/multi-format editing?

Thanks in advance! This site looks great!

Cheers,
M

I use Vegas with Excalibur for multicam.

Since I am an adobe user, Premiere CS3 here! :-)

Adobe is good. But, imho, it is a bit cumbersome with HDV. I'd say wait a few days for Vegas 8 demo to go online, download it and see if you like it.

Everyone has an opinion, and mine is Adobe with Matrox..

Grass Valley Edius 4.51

Hey all! thanks for the replies!

Sorry to not respond sooner... For some reason I did not get a subscription email (probably cause I forgot to subscribe to this thread!!! Noob mistake.)

Anyway, thanks for all the tips. :)

I am checking out all options now. I prefer Adobe too, but also use Vegas 7.

My buddy and I shoot with SD and HD formats, so it would be great to have the multi-format ability too... My buddy, a Mac user, uses Final Cut Pro, but his version does not support multi-cam edits with the different formats (although, I hear that the latest version does.)

Anyway, thanks again for tips!!! I greatly appreciate the help. ;)

Cheers,
Micky

Vegas Pro 8 --

Just added multicam suport, blue-ray export/burn from timeline, Pro titling, etc. Looks great...

Wow, sweeet!

I looooove shooting with multiple cams. Makes for some fun editing, esp. for live bands.

Thanks all!
