Re: Ugly ProRes422HQ export, color banding, pan judder

[Edward Koehler] "The _F proxies I'm working with were generated in REDAlert. "

Unless you re-graded them there, most use the generated in camera verisons.

It is still a 8bit proxy file that needs to be linked to the original R3D thru QT, to get any higher than that quality you need to force the relinking via Color or the like.

Conversion via RedcineX or Red Alert to your working ProRes file offers a simple direct way to control the quality vs from the onset.

You are working a system below RED's recommendation for playback- handling 4K playback over a fw 800 drive- RED suggests eSata as a minimum for storage.
