Final Cut Pro V4
 

is there any PC equivalent software?

You're probably not going to like the answer, but not really.
Not equivalent. You could run Premiere, but that is not as good.
Or you could get an Avid set up, but that is over kill.

For PC the new Premiere pro is pretty good.

Thanks..

thats pretty much what i've heard.. but wanted to see if anyone had any other recommendations...

looks like brad will have to buy some macs

The only thing that can come close is an Avid system. And even most of those guys are switching over.

Premiere will be able to do the same, they are pretty much at the same level. If you have too much money I would look into getting ?Smoke?. Although I am sure it runs in the 30K+ range.

sorry bro.. we already use premiere and it does even come close to what final cut pro offers ;-)

Greg, I think you'll find a close PC-equivalent to Final Cut Pro 4 in Vegas 4, from Sonic Foundry/Sony Media Software. Many of the features in both programs are identical or very similar. If you've got a fast processor (2.4GHz+) and a lot of memory (1GB+), the performance is outstanding.

Good luck.
