Steve, On Avid's Media Suite Pro, all effects must be rendered. This is their $25,000 system. Their more expensive system Composer, which I believe sells for somewhere in the neighborhood of $80,000. Anyway, this system will do effects in real time. The effects have not taken that long to render on the Avid system I have been using. A 30 frame disolve takes about one minute and five seconds. Most of the slow motion and reverse motion effects have just taken about 2 to 3 minutes. The system allows you to batch these effects so that you could do them all at one time, such as at night – after hours. Fred
