I am also a little concern about the software performance of Newtek with the
Flyer. I am sure the hardware will be good, but even if the annonced price is
under $5,000, people have to know that they will have to spend at three time
this amount in order to get a comfortable storage and a serious backup system.
I expect to had around $10,000 to $15,000 worth of hardware to my existing
Toaster A2000 and I'll do this to have a system that can compete with high end
non-linear edit systems. I don't expect the Flyer software to quite match the
Avid's one but Newtek has absolutely to come up with something that offer:
- All the standard editing features including split audio editing
- A workable interface for audio editing (audio scrub, waveform etiting,...)
- time code support
- Good integration of CG pages
- EDL output and printout
- Batch digitizing to save money on the storage devices
- Also, motion effects like slomo will ad a tremendous value to the system capacity.
Thierry.
