#TransJammer
7 messages in this thread
I've seen a few posts mentioning "Transjammer". Can you direct me to, or post a
description of that product. Is it PowerMac native?
Thanks,
Mike R.
TransJammer for Macintosh is PowerPC native and will also run on 68k Macs w/
FPU (it is a Fat Binary file) and it also includes a plug-in for Premeire so it
can use the 100 or so effects that come w/ Mac TransJammer

TransJammer Volume 1 is a suite of 100 killer transitional effects which
can be used in Adobe Premiere (on the Macintosh). The Windows version can
be used in in:sync's Razor Pro and in Adobe Premiere. Each of the 100 (actually
slightly more than 100) effects has up to 8 variations, so technically, there
are hundreds of effects in each TransJammer volume.
Volume 1 will be out shortly for both Mac and Windows (yes, the Razor fans
here on CIS have motivated us to get the lead out :-). Additional volumes
will appear on a more or less unpredictable basis.
All of TransJammer's effects are anti-aliased, and are resolution and time
independent. Their performance is slower than Premiere's fastest built-in
effects, but faster than Premiere's slowest built-in effects (to give an
idea). This is actually saying A LOT since programs like Premiere and
Razor typically use hard coded effects plug-ins and TransJammer is more
like an effects interpreter.

Jason,
Great news (I think) about the Transjammer package for Windows. I just have
one tiny little problem (what else is new :D). Not that ER isn't a fantastic
product worth every penny paid for it, but many of us bought ER/TJ for the sole
purpose of being able to use it with Razor Pro. Does this now mean that we
will have to spend more $$$ for yet another package? Will there be an upgrade
version? What about the plugin module that was to allow us to use our existing
TJ stuff? Please help stifle the rampant paranoia brewing here.
Thanks!

Dean,
TransJammer (the Razor and Premiere plug-in) has been highly optimized
since the ER 1.0 release. In fact, its effects now run 2 to 6 times faster
within the new TransJammer plug-in than they do in the ER 1.0. So, a lot
of work has gone on in the intervening time. Also, of course, there are
100+ effects in the plug-in version which is more than was shipped with
ER. And, the plug-in adapter themselves were a challenge to create since
they had to adapt the Razor/Premiere differences with respect to TransJammer
AND also deal with 16 and 32 bit issues since TJ is a 32 bit app and Razor
and Premiere are not.
The plug-in TransJammer will be a seperate product at a $149.95 suggested
retail price. Negotiations with in:sync are in process now which would
result in a very significant offer being made available to registered
Razor owners. While I can't give any details on this, I'm told the offer
will be *very* generous and if you haven't registered your copy of
Razor, this will be a big incentive to do so.
