Videoguys DIY NLE Workstation philosophy and thoughts on DIY9
We're getting a lot of calls and questions about our latest DIY recommendations - and requests for a DIY9 build! We've also been participating in some very hot discussions on the Adobe and DVinfo.net forums about our Do-it-yourself editing systems. I wanted to put this article together to give you some insight into why we pick the components we do and what is our overall DIY NLE workstation philosophy.
Our DIY builds have to be able to run the latest versions of Adobe Premiere Pro and Production Premium, Avid Media Composer, Sony Vegas Pro and Grass Valley EDIUS. We also know that folks will use it to run consumer programs like Pinnacle Studio, Vegas Movie Studio, Premiere Elements and more. It has to be powerful enough to allow the software to work with footage in a wide range of formats including but not limited to AVCHD, DSLR, iPhone, XD Cam, P2, HDV and good old DV and standard def analog video. We also try to keep the cost down. We'll offer builds that may be more expensive or cheaper, but Videoguys DIY sweet spot is $1,500.
The bottom line is this. You need a balanced system for best results. Too much of one area at the expense of another hurts performance. So if you have a budget and you can't get the best of everything, you need to make the right choices.
