Hi Rich:

Yup, two fcp w/ one AJA IO, in house and some off site, and one old abvb mc that spends 99% of its time turned off.
good pros' and con's, feel free to call for extended details.

Cettainly ove our DS, but my offline editors are so good w/ fcp, that it just goes that way.
I have gotten very fast at eye matching dve's and motion and live type graphics from fcp off lines.

We'll capture in house on our fcp system and then our offline editor will come in and scoop the files and project to a firewire drive, get a completeed off line done at his place, and email me the XML file on completion, AutoDuckin the OMF for DS, Capture and import any targa anmimations, and stills, and conform away.

Some projects just use fcp the whole way.
Occasionally I'll feed em a grpahic build from DS.

Our old MC mostly does occasional project or omf translation services to feed the DS.

We are 98% SD, no HD yet. FCP is V 5.01. That G5 also does lots of DVD Studio Pro encoding, Bravo-II Disk Publishing, Soundtrax Pro Mixing for the DS, Etc.

Does anyone out there offer FCP at their facility
along with DS? As opposed to DS and another Avid
platform Adrenaline or Express Pro?

Just wondering about the workflow and how successful
it's been for you.
I need and love my DS but looking ahead to the
uncertain future, I also want to incorporate and
develop a FCP suite in addition to the DS.

I am well aware of what each platform can do and
cannot do....I just want to get some feedback on any
facilities that have this workflow in place.

Thanks in advance!

Rich
