So even if previous editions put you off the software for life, take a look - just make a cup of tea if you choose to install all the extras after the main program. Much like scanning technology though, once you’ve actually imported the footage you could use any other software you like to process it if you just can’t live with the Studio update to v9.1.2- provided you stick to standards.
At least when you pick up that DV cam, if you’ve paid the extra for DV In/Out then this box is ready to support those cameras and so the future proofing, combined with the constant round of fixes and patches, make this an improvement on the past. Do you own an analogue camcorder? Then toss it in the dustbin if you want to use this kit because it looks for a DV camera primarily and though it purports to support analogue as well, the software is happiest, naturally, with the newer technology.
