NewTek is now shipping SpeedEDIT 2. This upgrade to the SpeedEDIT video editor offers numerous advancements, including support for additional file formats and enhanced sub-project capabilities for more flexible real-time layering.
“Workflow – it is not like other editors,” says Kristopher DeBolt, owner/chief pixel pusher, Digital Matters Productions. “It is fluid – not rigid and makes it easy to move things around and get things done fast.”
SpeedEDIT 2 works natively for real-time editing with XDCAM HD, XDCAM EX, QuickTime, and AC3 Audio. This update also transcodes additional formats, including selected types of AVCHD. Sub-projects now access all of the Control Tree settings for real-time sizing, rotation, and overlay functions on groups of clips as if they were a single video clip. SpeedEDIT 2 also offers improved slow motion, with options for interpolated smoothing or enhanced sharpness. For animators, image sequences are displayed as clips in real-time, with support extended to PNG, BMP, Targa, TIFF, and JPEG files. SpeedEDIT 2 extends real-time preview and playback with output support for Blackmagic Design and other compatible external video devices.
“The pace of production is faster than ever, and editors appreciate a workflow that is intuitive, flexible, and easy-to-use,” said John Perkins, lead software engineer, SpeedEDIT, NewTek. “SpeedEDIT 2 avoids the unnecessary steps required in other editing solutions, and now offers more versatility with cutting and layering for editors and animators.”
SpeedEDIT 2 is available for $995, with an upgrade price of $249 for SpeedEDIT and VT[5] owners.
