And, as far as ScopeBox is concerned, I’ve been looking to try this out for a while, and now is the perfect time since EditReady now works with ScopeBox via ScopeLink. You can see the technical results of any compression or LUT you are applying in EditReady through ScopeLink. Here is a quick tip to get ScopeBox talking to EditReady: in EditReady you need to be previewing your file by hitting Command + 3 or going to the Clip menu and clicking Open Preview. Playing in the EditReady window will not transmit the signal to ScopeBox.
EDITREADY REVIEW UPDATE
In this latest update to EditReady (v1.4), we get the ability to run our video through ScopeBox via ScopeLink. ScopeLink, which has been around for a bit, allows ScopeBox to process video through apps like Apple FCP X, Adobe’s Premiere Pro, SpeedGrade and After Effects, and now EditReady. What’s cool about this is that if you need to do a quick quality control check of your video, looking for illegal color values, and don’t have time or access to a hardware scope like a Tektronix, ScopeBox will work quickly and easily with EditReady on the same computer. So now, in addition to using the video scopes, you can batch convert a bunch of clips to an intraframe editing-friendly codec like DNxHR, burn in a LUT and preview it through ScopeBox to see where it hits on your waveform or RGB parade.
EDITREADY REVIEW SOFTWARE
Keep in mind these are two separate software apps and both need to be purchased for this to work. If you were in post production about five years ago, you were probably all about the app ClipWrap, especially when it came to incompatible QuickTime wrappers like today’s often incompatible AVCHD. EditReady has adopted the ClipWrap functionality as well as transcoding. As an added bonus, EditReady automatically joins spanned files like GoPro, AVCHD, MXF (camera MXF not Op1a) and HDV. Something I really love in EditReady is the ability to take high frame rate media and set it to the frame rate you want to edit in. It won’t add or remove frames but it will adjust the speed accordingly. In the past this was a little bit of hassle to get to work right, but now it’s easy with EditReady. Metadata is another strong suit of EditReady.
When using clips from cameras like the GoPro, some NLEs won’t properly read the timecode track. Within the metadata browser in EditReady you can assign timecode to each file. This really helps when making proxy files to be used with an offline/online workflow. If you want some technical speed test results, check out my previous review of EditReady - the same speeds are still present.
