Re: A few more..

[John Davidson] "1. Does Premiere Pro 6 have an option for adjustment layers similar to how they work in AE?"

Yes.

[John Davidson] "2. Will PPro or AE now allow for multiple open projects simultaneously? Not importing, but actual separate projects open?"

No. We can import part or all of another project but we cannot open multiple projects at one time. We are aware of many FCP users wanting this kind of thing.

[John Davidson] "3. Can independent audio clips in PPro have their levels adjusted as in FCP without affecting the whole track?"

No. Premiere Pro is a track based mixer - not a clip based mixer like FCP legacy. You do have clip based keyframing on the timeline, but the mixer is track based. We know this is a very high feature request among many users. Premiere's automation and audio handling capabilities are very high - I would argue better than anything else out there, but I (and Adobe) definitely know that this is something that is different and potentially troubling to FCP users.

[John Davidson] "4. Do the 6750M AMD enhancements also apply to iMacs containing that card?"

The cards we offically support are listed on the website. If it is not listed, there are ways to work around this, BUT we have to be clear and say that it isn't supported. We want to allow everyone to experience the GPU goodness, but we can't keep ahead of all the new cards that are popping out all of the time. I hope that we'll add some iMac type ATI cards to the officially supported list soon. until then, you can search the web for the workaround which I find to be just fine.
