In a nutshell: Media 100… Good looking picture cumbersome interface. The time line functions ar buried like subdirectories with buttons. I prefer to see all my options. Lacks some clip "sort" functions I use all the time. Crashes often. The latest version added better resolution and cured some of the…
Fred, The FAST system uses 2 drives as 1 logical unit. It looks at the drives as it would VCR's. You can mix digital video with analog tape, go analog to analog or digital to digital. The effects are real time and editable. You can also create alpha wipes (organic…
Fred, Avid dissolves are real time unless your layering effects.(non media suite pro AVIDS) Also please note my FAST NLE does all 400 efx in real time as well as var forward and reverse play.
Erik, I'm with you. Ham8 is no match for true 24 and SFing to Beta SP. I guess it has it's place for those without the capability/bucks for single frame equipment. I thought it was nice but not a replacement for SFing. Karl

Wayne, The rumor mill (mostly reliable source) says the Toaster for the 4000 will use the ECS mode not the AGA. That source says the new lightwave mod will not be released alone and it will not be on CD rom. This news came supposedly came from the NewTek booth…
Luke, I have seen both th units out there work with the Toaster. The result was "ok"( minor amounts of artifactin). If you're fussy about image quality, see a demo then make your decision. The Toaster can only Luma key and to get a clean key you have to cut…
Wayne, I have 2 2000's linked through a cable using the "parnet" network software. This lets you address another computer as a device. I will try rendering to the other computer and batch processing on the fly. Everyone that has a Toaster has a 2nd 2000 to work on while…
Brad, There are scripts to batch process both framestores and 24bit iffs. There are several scripts for framestore compression. There is also a new (pay) product out called ADP Tools. This will batch process animation frames, preform multiple Adpro operations and allows you to build your own macros. It also…
I'm led to believe it is. A good friend of mine has a Toaster Cozzy with the Video Toaster and the Impact24 board. ( The fool insists on using Calagari instead of Lightwave). I think that qualifies it as a video slot. The specs also claim "2nd video slot". Karl…
Wayne, Why not save the Lightwave frame as IFF24, then use one of the many Arexx scripts out there to batch process to ADPro for manipulation then re-save with compression in Toasterpaint or with JPEG? Most of what you ask is available already. Karl "Only Amiga can make it happen…"
Ron, I have a 2000 with 2 internal drives 1meg Agnus for 500.00 Karl Feltner 74230,750 "Only Amiga can make it happen…"
I have a Supra 500rx controller with 2megs on board and 20 meg Segate SCSI drive for $300.00 "Only Amiga can make it happen…"
Have you tried cleaning the contacts and re-seating your Toaster board? I had a similliar probelm and that was the cure. Also make sure the 2 boards that make up the Toaster have not come apart. Sometimes the tight fit flexs the board and causes the them to separate or…
There doesn't seem to be a common denominator on model of 3000 that could experience PS problems. I suspect that it's due to component tolerance. To some it happens when the 040 goes in, to others it's the Toaster or some other piece of hardware. As I mentioned before Micro…
A wiser choice would have been a Toaster Cozzy. It saves cutting the case, has it's own power supply, internal black burst and a 2nd video slot. Power supplies in the 3000's have been known to have problems when adding power hungry accessories. Micro R & D has power supplies…

Bravo, Mr. Foust! It was starting to remind me of the old complaint department cartoon where the guy says " How about if we close the store, sell the the business, fire the employee's and shoot the manager?" "Only Amiga can make it happen…"
#Burnt Toaster!
Message #48673
Erik, Have you tried removing all the other boards and installed just the toaster? I've heard that the power supplies in some of the 3000's are poorly regulated and crap out when the machine is loaded with other boards. That's one of the reasons the cozzy is so popular. (sep…
Joe, There are a couple of great Toaster/Lightwave BBS's out there with alot of what you request. Karl "Only Amiga can make it happen…"
Eugene, Just tried to call you. I will try again, if you get this message first I have a couple of questions: How many drives 1 or 2? Is it an 020 or 030 machine, I assume it's an 020. Is it a 2090 HDcontroller or 2091. Karl – via…

Glenn, Your going from a high SN/Line Resolution to a much lower one in going to 3/4SP, then through a DA with it's own set of specs, then back to a high SN/line resolution. The quality is limited to the quality of the weakest link. Probably the DA. I would…
