Re: Smoke as an editor
by Chris Borjis (Borjis) on Jun 18, 2008 at 8:16:16 pm


I paid just over $ 250,000 for smoke* 3.6.1 on sgi octane hardware with 1 hour of uncompressed sd storage back around late 90's.

An amazing system for what it did at the time.

Nowadays Final Cut Pro is much more suited to my needs as I can output to dvd, web or tape all within a few mere clicks. Can't do this on smoke* but thats not really what its made for.

smoke* has a much more difficult learning curve if you are used to traditional editing system layouts that everyone else employs:
A Timeline, Bins and source/record windows all on the same screen.

In that regard I can't really say I like the smoke interface, but
I would never question or doubt the stability and real time power it has. For that alone there are studios that have to have that.
