For now it will only have 2 tabs, the color tab shown above, and the cut tab.
The Cut Page also looks much like it’s desktop version
Here;s hoping that the cut page will work with the DaVinci Speed Editor, which is Bluetooth, so that would only make sense.
They have also said there will be a free version and a paid Studio Version from the iTunes Store.
With the M2 Chip in the new ipad pro this should work, though the limited ram might be a bit of an issue, as will storage, so hopefully it will work well with external hard drives.
This will be released in quarter 4 of 2022!
How can Blackmagic Design manage this, when Apple hasn’t manged a version of Final Cut Pro for the iPad.
And I think the problem is obvious. Color bays are too dark and they use too good screens in the dark. That is absolutely fine for films which are meant to be seen in a darkened room, but homes have light, and most people don’t watch television in the dark.
Honestly there should be a higher level of ambient light in editing bays for TV, to take account people have lights on in their house. And have a consumer display to finish to as well, to check how it looks.
I know on these signature shows they want you to turn off the lights and only pay attention to it, but that isn’t an option for everyone.
And if there are significant complaints, you are doing the grade wrong. You need to remember this is going to be viewed by people at home, not in a darkened theater!
Customization is really the best thing about Premiere Pro.
Of course AVID was the start of this because every editor doesn’t want to work the same way or have the same setup to work on, so being able to have your own setup is so important and AVID premiered this feature in the editing space.
The original Apple Final Cut Pro also had this feature.
The new Final Cut Pro, previously Final Cut Pro X, did away with this and wants you to edit their way. You don’t have as many ways to do things and you really can’t do a lot of customization in the workspace.
DaVinci Resolve has added editing to it’s color correction program and it is great, but it also does not let you customize, it is once again how they want you to edit. Yes you can use one or two monitors, but the windows are all very fixed where they are.
Premiere though is like AVID in customization, but adds to it, especially with so many available 3rd party extensions, like from AESCRIPTS, and it’s extensive keyboard shortcut options.
Scott Simmons is so right that Premiere’s customization abilities are it’s absolute best feature and it is a shame that DaVinci Resolve doesn’t allow the same customization.
