Really Real Time, with Digital I/O for Final Cut Pro
Even though Pinnacle tells us its Mac OS X version of CinéWave RT is right around the corner, we couldn't resist taking a look at the Mac OS 9 version of what many say is the best way to edit with Final Cut Pro. And glory be, I wasn't disappointed at all. Even though the $14,185 bundle of hardware and software I tested isn't going to be occupying any bargain basements anytime soon, it's so versatile and powerful, I can see why pros all over are snapping this baby up. It's solid, it's quick, it's stable, and I want one. So let's take a look at this OS 9 version in part one, and in part two, we'll see the OS X version as soon as it's released. Pinnacle says that should happen sometime this summer.
On intellectual property and intellectual improprieties
For most, the issue of intellectual property rights is just a distant abstraction, and probably a dry subject to boot. But for our industry, the issue is at the core of everything we do. It drives our value as content creators--whether in print, on the radio, in film and video or on the Web--and it affects the financial value of our work well after the work is created.
