Manufacturer Support Grows for Premiere Pro
July 07, 2003
Sarasota, FL - Following the official announcement by Adobe Systems Incorporated introducing Premiere Pro, hardware manufacturers are announcing support and compatibiity with the new product.
Canopus Corporation announced support for Premiere Pro with its DVStorm2 and DVRaptor RT2 advanced real-time editing solutions.
Matrox Video Products Group announced that its Matrox RT.X100 Xtreme and RT.X10 Xtra realtime editing platforms will support the Pro software.
Canopus reports NLE customers will continue to enjoy the exceptional
render-free editing capabilities they are accustomed to with DVStorm2 and DVRaptor RT2, in addition to the advanced features found in Adobe Premiere Pro, including a streamlined interface, multiple nestable timelines and powerful new audio controls. Both feature Canopus's high-quality hardware DV codec chip that relieves the system's CPU from Adobe Premiere Pro's software-based DV renderer, leaving more CPU power available for realtime effects processing - providing an unmatched realtime multi-track editing experience.
Designed for corporate communicators, event videographers,
project studios, educational facilities, and digital filmmakers, Matrox
RT.X100 Xtreme will extend the capabilities of Adobe Premiere Pro to give
professional users an important competitive edge. It will also give a
significant productivity boost to Adobe After Effects and Adobe Photoshop
users with WYSIWYG support for video output on an NTSC or PAL monitor.
Matrox RT.X10 Xtra lets PC users quickly and easily create home movies,
business videos, and school projects they can be proud of, even if they are new to video, Matrox describes.
Canopus will offer Adobe Premiere Pro as a software bundle option to
DVStorm2 and DVRaptor RT2 later this summer.
Matrox has announced its upgrade path, allowing for customers who purchased RT.X100 Xtreme or RT.X10 Xtra bundled with Adobe Premiere 6.5, on or after June 7, 2003, to receive a free upgrade to Adobe Premiere Pro. Customers who made their purchase prior to June 7, 2003 will be able to order their Adobe Premiere Pro upgrade directly from Adobe.
