Multicam Lite price drop
today lowered the price of its Multicam Lite 1.03 software by 66 percent, from $300 to $100. Multicam Lite is a Mac OS X application that works in conjunction with Final Cut Pro 4.1 or later for the input and output of sequences via XML files. The software boasts a streamlined interface, and can cut up to three cameras in real-time. Multicam Lite can use DV, DVCPRO25 or OfflineRT source clips directly, and offers comprehensive trimming and camera swapping features built-in. When the cut is finished, the XML file is imported back into Final Cut Pro where all the cuts are automatically recreated, ready for further effects work or output. Digital Heaven suggests running Multicam Lite 1.03 on a dual processor G4 or G5 Macintosh when playing three streams of DV footage. [updated]
