Adobe gets it and Adobe wants you.
Adobe Goes Pro
When Adobe Premiere Pro CS 5 was launched at NAB2010, the message was clear that Adobe was taking Premiere Pro into the professional market segment. This is not your father's Adobe Premiere, it is a powerful NLE designed to handle the most challenging professional projects. They were the first NLE developer to commit to an all new 64-bit architecture and native HD format support. Adobe harnessed all of the power in your computer, multiple CPU cores, huge amounts of RAM and even your graphics processor with the new Mercury Playback Engine to deliver an unprecedented level of real-time HD performance.
Creative Suite 5.5 Introduced
The NAB2011 introduction of Adobe CS 5.5 is yet another step forward into the professional market. All of the Adobe programs in the Creative Suite Production Premium interact and support each other at a level beyond anything else in the industry. You can round trip a clip from Premiere Pro CS 5.5 into the new Warp Stabilizer in Adobe After Effects CS 5.5 with just a few mouse clicks. You can also update graphics in Adobe Photoshop CS5.5 or edit your audio clips in the new Audition CS 5.5 and go back to Premiere Pro just as easily. The Adobe CS5.5 Production Premium isn't a collection of titles, it is an integrated suite of tools that are cutting edge technology and designed for prosumers and professionals.
The World's Most Open Solution
Adobe CS5.5 Production Premium is the world's most open post production solution available today. Do you need 3rd party hardware? If so, Matrox, AJA, BlackMagic and MOTU solutions are fully supported. Do you want to add software plug-ins? There are literally hundreds to choose from that work with Premiere and/or After Effects. The reason there are so many choices is that Adobe works with their partners to insure support for new versions come out in a matter of days, not months after new releases.
Oh yeah, did I mention that CS5.5 runs great on PCs or Mac, desktops, laptops and iMacs? It does, just remember that the Mercury Playback Engine wants all the power you can give it, so we recommend Intel Core i7 processors and nVidia graphics cards for best results. Here is the base system specs that Videoguys recommend to give you excellent performance and optimized Mercury playback.
Mac Pro, Mac Book Pro or iMac

Windows PC Desktop or Laptop

*Although Adobe CS5 officially only supports a handful of GPU for the Mercury Playback Engine, we have provided links on our blog to articles that show you how to enable MANY other nVidia cards for Mercury. |
