RE: [Avid-L2] Likely done with Avid

There is a pretty robust Premiere Facebook page. . It functions just like an L.

Probably more familiar to Millennials.

Interesting you mention audio drop outs. I have found when using Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014 to add pulldown to a QT Ref out of Avid with 16 channels of audio I will sometimes end up with entire tracks missing audio. One time is was missing channels 4,6,7,15 IIRC then another time it was just channel 4. Most of the time it's okay but this has happened at least 4 times to me in the last month. I wonder if the underpinnings of that issue are the same root cause of what you are mentioning.

When it happens I don't even quit Adobe Media Encoder or even re import the original QT Ref. I just reset the files status and re bake and all the audio is there. I usually am doing other things in Avid, Photoshop and other apps while AME is baking but not things that would effect the QT Ref file.

There is a Yahoo Group:
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/Adobe-Premiere/conversations/messages
\
As for a Premiere L2 there is this Yahoo Group but it hasn't gained much traction over the last year or two. Perhaps if some of the Avid L2 members joined it we could start to make it a more viable group. Otherwise it seems the Creative Cow has numerous groups, or whatever they call it on the Cow, dealing with Adobe. Personally I've never used Creative Cow much because the signal to noise ratio and just an overall feeling of it being a bit too commercialized. This is not a condemnation of the Cow just my reaction to it. The FCP-L was a fine complement to the Avid L2 when it came to FCP 7, due in large part to the cross pollination of members from this list.

So I'll make a motion to the group that we should collectively add the above mentionedsite as Premiere L2ish. I tend to go to this group with all my questions as we all tend to speak the same language here and have a depth of varied experiences with an eye towards the entire post production process for broadcast and theatrical work.

Besides no one at the Cow has a clue how important OKI Dogs are to the post production workflows of real professionals. ;-)

In UK Freelance world Premiere is certainly pretty active, although broadcasters / facilities tend to be Avid.

Production companies like Premiere because production staff can ingest, string stuff together, organise ahead/instead of us 'expensive' editors. Avid they can never fathom. Usually we'll send an OP1a to grade & AAF to ProTools and get facility to do deliverables.

Sport OBs have replaced FCP7 (finally) with PPro. Avid is missing this market as they insist on Interplay.

That said I'm doing French Open / Euros & (Zika dependent) Olympics and Paralympics on Avid/ISIS/Interplay.

PPro does have some issues (audio drop-outs being the major one) and minor missing features (head/tail fade, adding multiple audio dissolves, grading workflow). Could do with a Premiere-L too.

Does look pretty bad for Avid at the moment though
