Media preparation

Catalyst Prepare takes care of all of your media prep needs:
  • View your media directly from a camera, deck, or card reader
  • Make a full-volume backup with checksum verification
  • Organize clips into bins
  • Batch copy clips
  • Batch transcode clips
  • Make color adjustments and apply looks
  • Set in/out points
  • Establish multichannel audio assignments
  • Batch upload clips Ci, the Sony video cloud service
  • Assemble a rough cut with the Storyboard feature
Then, when you're ready to move on to editing your project, all of this prep work integrates seamlessly with Catalyst Edit.

Post production

In Catalyst Edit, turn your beautiful footage into a polished, finished product. To save time, access your Catalyst Prepare libraries directly and import existing storyboards to cut your project together quickly and creatively. The focused toolset gives you quick access to all the essential cutting tools as well as effects, titling, and other tools to bring your production from imagination to screen.

Mac OS X and Windows

You use your computer to make great videos, and you run whatever operating system it takes to get the job done. You need powerful editing capabilities whether you run Mac OS X or Windows, and if you use one platform at the studio and the other at the home office, you probably need to work on your projects on both systems. That’s why Catalyst Prepare and Catalyst Edit look, feel, and function exactly the same on both platforms.
