Does Cinema Grade work with the Tangent Ripple colour surface? - Id sent CGC an email last week but they are not retuning an answer!!! Maybe they don't know?! LOL

I'm obviously not getting their emails and they are not in my spam. I did get a reply from support about the openCL error though. I replied back asking for the promo codes and for them to double check to make sure I'm still on their distribution list, but haven't heard back yet.

update on blackfriday would be nice!

Is anyone willing to send me a copy fo the email or promo codes for the Black Friday sale?

I have not been getting emails from CGC for this stuff, although Ama registered user of the apps. I also haven't been getting a response from the guys at CGC support, and I would like to try Cinema Grade and possibly buy it. I just took delivery of an iMac Pro last night and am trying to install the plug-ins so am waiting to hear back from CHC to get them activated as well.

Can anyone send me the promo codes or email?

Thanks.

The email from Denver said they'll be sending the promo code on Friday. I assume it'll be a generic one anybody can use.

Hmm, it might be nice if FCP.CO posted the BlackFriday specials for FCPX plugins and related utilities.

COLOR FINALE UPDATE for 10.4.4 and more NOW available ...

Got the email from CGC. Color Finale 1.9.0 is now available fixes the bug and renders faster as it now uses Metal 2

Delete

Color Finale fix has created a new problem! VIDEO GLITCHES on clips with CF Pro applied.

see video of issue:



All video clips are fine without CF Pro. I am also using The Tangent Ripple Colour Surface (latest f/w and UI)

Clips:
Video Clips: 1920x1080P 24fps ProRes HQ
Audio: 48Khz Linear PCM

System:
FCPX 10.4.4
L2013 MAcPro 32GB RAM G700 Graphics
Ext. HDD G-Tech 8TB 7200rpm Thunderbolt

OS: High Sierra 10.13.6

I suspect that is because the latest 1.90 version of CF is updated to work with Mojave OS and makes use of the Metal technology. The previous version of CF worked fine with High Sierra which is what I think you are testing with. I'll check this later on Mojave when I get back in the studio.

My brand new, two day old imac pro was running super fast with transcoding and rendering with the fresh, untainted install of fcpx, but I feel like it got slower after installing Color Finale's updated plugin. I have Color Finale on my MBP, but after the errors from updating, I resisted installing it on the iMac until I knew it was fixed. Now that I have installed it, I'm not sure it's worth keeping. Since there isn't much difference between it and the tools in FCPX 10.4.4, I finally decided to uninstall color finale and LUT gallery. I also tried cinema grade, but it doesn't do what I thought it would, so am going to pass on that too. I'm not sure if it's possible for the software to slow down FCPX. It could be my imagination, but that's the only thing I changed and importing and transcoding seemed to bog down.

Count yourself lucky!! I'm enslaved to CF Pro because I use the Tangent Ripple Colour Surface (£300) which interfaces the control surface with FCPX.. AFAIK there is no interface alternative. So total bill for using color /finale is £450 !! Thats a lot of your American dollars!

I'm trialing DaVici Resolve (again) and my Ripple interlaces directly with it.. no plugins needed! But I still want to use it with FCPX

If anyone out there knows of another way to use my Ripple surface with FCPX (without the need for CF) PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!!!

You could be right but I'm mid-project at the moment so will 'mojave' my Mac when I'm done with that which will be a few months away!!!

I'm also on High Sierra and get these glitches. Thankfully I'm generally just applying an LUT and some basic curves, so I've now started using the inbuilt FCPX tools. Not sure when I'll be updated to Mojave on this machine either. I generally just use it now as an LUT manager, so may try another plugin for that.

Another update release for Color Finale Pro is out today. Latest version now is 1.91 for those following this thread.

Interesting that the release notes for 1.9.1 mention running on two GPUs.

The Ripple panel does also work when you have CommandPost installed ( www.commandpost.io )
This is a helper program for FCPX with a lot of functionality. To enable the Ripple you have to check this option in the preferences and set it up properly. You can find the documentation on the website.
As soon as you touch your Ripple panel, a native fcpx color wheels is added and you can immediately start grading. Very quick workflow!!!

Thank you so much for this, I had no idea this existed. I’ve set it up and it works great.
