Final Cut Pro 6, Final Cut Extreme, Xserve RAID

ThinkSecret reports that Apple will be showing off some new products at the National Association of Broadcasters this year which takes place April 22-27, 2006 in Las Vegas.

According to the rumor site, the new products include Final Cut Pro 6, Final Cut Extreme and Xserve RAID Extreme.

Final Cut Pro 6 is said to include 5.1 surround sound editing, 1080/24p and 1080/30p DVCPROHD support. Even fewer details are available about Final Cut Extreme which is said to be "an extremely high end version of its video editing software" and is targeted at current Avid users. The new software will require the highest end hardware and be priced close to $10,000.

Also hinted at is a larger Cinema Display to support 4520x2540 resolution of an upcoming 3rd party digital video camera.

Steve Announces his "One More Thing"

....and intorducing, the Apple Wall...

Curtain goes up to reveal the back wall is one single monitor with a resolution of 120,000 * 98000.

137 Apple journalists pass out and require medical attention.
The rest just sit there and dribble.
And every Apple store manager present wonders how the **** there going to fit this one in the store window.

Some quick math on that display suggests that if the pixels are the same size as those on the 30-inch, this will be a 50-inch display.

You can only guess how much that will cost.

And as Dreadnought pointed out, how do you drive that thing?

This is great news for the industry, but especially for educators like myself, who teach video editing on Final Cut Pro/Express and can tell students a growing number of feature films are being cut on software using the same interface. If this holds true and Final Cut becomes even more prevalent in the professional industry, then...well, I just wish I was a student these days!

My god thats expensive. Not that I know much about this type of thing but all the numbers and letters thrown in make it sound pretty top of the line. 40" Screen? Go Apple.

XServe RAID Extreme? Hilarious. Why don't they just bump the specs on the baseline model? Or will this one have racing stripes?
