So, since it's coming out next Friday, I was wondering if anybody wanted to go into on a Family pack (5 licenses) for $200, rather than paying $120 per license. If so, hit me up- nk1708a@american.edu

Final Cut Pro Preferences

Final Cut often gets corrupt preference files. This results in decks not being correctly recognized, files being saved to strange places, and other annoyances. To remedy this problem you must trash the preferences, and the next time FCP is started it automatically recreates the default settings...but the process of deleting the preferences is time consuming and confusing....

So now we have an alternative.

You will note a new icon on the dock for a program called FCP Rescue. It is a very basic but very useful program that trashes your Final Cut preferences, and allows you to restore them.

So now, if FCP is giving you trouble, open FCP Rescue, click "trash" then click "restore." Now FCP will be back to normal.

Please note that the scratch disks will be set to the Final Cut Pro Documents folder, so if someone is using an external drive, they will have to reset the scratches to their drive.

Visual Hub on all the NMC stations

Due to its wide array of formats and ease of use, Visual Hub has now been installed on all the student accounts in the NMC lab! Because VH doesn't recognize multiple accounts on a single machine, it must be installed separately on any new accounts that are created. The install file and serial are located on the manager station computer in the NMC folder. Enjoy!

Tech needs? Make a list!

After sifting through the cable cabinet and not finding a single 4 to 4 pin Firewire cable (we borrowed one from the Hub), it's high time to make a list of miscellaneous cables/adapters needed in the NMC. There is now a .doc file on the Manager computer called 'SHOPPING LIST FOR NMC' that you are encouraged to add any must-have connections to...

How Much Would You Pay for Radiohead?

I applaud Radiohead for going this route with music - cutting out the label... Although it works to their advantage to already be a music-juggernaut, maybe this will open up doors for smaller artists that want to expose themselves through less traditional avenues... What do you think?
