CPU

Based on the Intel Skylake-X, this workstation for EDIUS PRO sets a new standard of performance. Our base CPU is the Core i9 10940X which features an 14 Core-28 Thread processor with a 3.3GHZ clock speed and a boost speed of 4.8GHZ. Bump up to the Core i9 10980XE for an 18 Core-36 Thread processor.

Edius Pro uses all of your available cores when encoding and during playback.

System RAM

For your EDIUS Pro workstation, you can make your System RAM selections below. EDIUS Pro will use all of your available RAM unlike other applications. This helps with timeline playback, etc.

For this system, we offer a 16GB, 32GB, 64GB, and a 128GB option using the latest DDR4 standard. The amount of RAM can impact your workflow. For EDIUS Pro, 32GB is comfortable, but if you use effects or your projects are long, then the more memory the better.

Keyboard Type

In this section, you can make your keyboard and mouse choice. Our standard keyboard is a comfortable slim keyboard from Logitech. You can choose a wireless mouse along with an illuminated wireless keyboard from Logitech.

The LogicKeyboard options give you your application shortcuts imprinted on the key caps. This is the easiest way to lean the shortcuts that will save you time when editing.

System Drive

This DreamStation now comes standard with a nVME SSD for a System drive or your 'C: drive'. The System Drive contains the Windows OS and your program files. Since your DreamStation is a multi-drive system, a smaller system drive is OK since you other drive volumes are used to store media assets and projects. The nVME SSD drives use a special slot on the motherboard and are smaller than a stick of RAM. These drives offer a direct PCI-e connection for up to 3000MBs read and 2500MBs write speeds!

Spare/Render/Cache Drive

The Render-Spare Drive is not required for your EDIUS System, but it's a good idea to have. Having a secondary SSD or hard drive in addition to your Media RAID can be important. This drive can be used as your EXPORT DRIVE for your exports to MPEG-2, Blu-ray, H.264/265, QuickTime, or anything you are exporting.

Using a separate storage for exports will decrease your render times and is recommended by Adobe. If you are a serious power user for Premiere Pro, After Effects, or Photoshop then you should consider adding an SSD drive for your Media cache, scratch disks, and After Effects cache. The SSD drive will considerably speed up those applications, when working with complex projects.

Primary Bay Option

We include a Blu-ray recorder that supports BD-RE at 16x, DVD's at 24X and CD's at 48X.Alternatively, you can choose a standard DVD Recorder that also burns CD's.

Windows 10 Pro includes built in burning functions.

You may also choose not to have an optical drive at all.

Secondary Bay Option

This is where you can choose an option for your secondary bay. Options include a (4) port USB hub, an additional optical drive, or nothing at all.

In some cases, this bay may be unavailable depending on the number of storage options chosen.

Display Adapter/GPU

In this section you can pick your recommended GPU for Adobe Premiere and After Effects. Premiere and After Effects use the GPU to accelerate filters, effects, and new formats in the timeline for real-time playback.

RTX GEFORCE

Our current base card is the RTX 3070ti with 8GB of RAM. This GPU offers 3584 CUDA cores and 12GB of GDDR5 RAM making it ideal for 4k workflows. The RTX 3070ti and 3080ti offer even more performance.

We've got new stock of the latest RTX 3070Ti and RTX 3080Ti cards to boost your system performance with more CUDA cores, and support for 8K.

RTX QUADRO

You can also choose a new RTX A4000 Quadro card for this system. All of the Quadro cards support 10 bit color (about a billion colors) using the DisplayPort connections. 10 bit color is important for accurate color correction using programs like Adobe After Effects CC, Black Magic's DaVinci Resolve when using a broadcast monitor.

Applications which support OpenGL 'only' require a Quadro card (like AVID Media Composer). Quadro cards also offer ECC memory, which translates into fewer render errors and crashes are less likely. NVIDIA Quadro cards are well known for their stability and support for all professional video applications.

Please call us anytime at 1-877-203-0871 x1 if you have any questions about our GPU choices.

Internal Media Volume

In this section, you can choose your Internal Media Volume drive array. Please note that configurations that have 8 drives require the 8 bay case.

The Media Volume (volume) is where you will store your video, audio, stills, and other media for online editing. Although the Media RAID shows up as one drive letter, it is actually made up of two or more spinning hard drives or Solid State Drives.

We offer 2 types of RAID configurations. We use a multi drive RAID configuration for your media storage because one single hard drive is not fast enough to edit the formats used today in most cases. We use a proprietary 'caching' algorithm combined with our RAID configurations to enhance the multi stream performance. The end result is that you don't have to wait for your storage system to catch up to your creativity.

Media RAID-0: for Performance

In a RAID-0, we use 2 (or more) hard drives and combine them together so they appear as one drive letter (volume) in Windows. This is required for SD/HD/4K editing because a single hard drive is not fast enough. If you take the steps to make sure your important video and audio assets are backed up, then the standard (2) drive RAID-0 is perfectly fine. Hard drives are mechanical, and they can fail. Our systems have numerous external ports for easy connection to USB 3.0, optional Thunderbolt drive arrays. There are many options to keep your media online and available.

Media RAID-10: for Performance and Content Protection

In a RAID-10, we essentially mirror a RAID-0. This is all done in the background with no intervention from you. The UPSIDE to this solution is fast speed with data redundancy. If a hard drive fails in the RAID, all of your projects and media are safe. With our RAID-10 configuration, if a drive fails the system continues to operate without a hiccup, and there is no need to rebuild a RAID-10 array to access your projects and media stored on it. Once you replace the failed drive, the array will be protected again. The DOWNSIDE to this solution is that it is more expensive, and doubles the number of hard drives required to implement it.

CHOOSE YOUR ARRAY BELOW in the list. The RAID-10 solutions will protect your data.

NLE Software

We offer two versions of EDIUS X for our DreamStation workstation. This new version of EDIUS has been written from the ground up with a completely redesigned core engine along with a modular concept allowing even more performance for fully customizable workflows.

EDIUS X Pro is the perfect finishing tool for professional productions, including documentary and 4K theatrical productions. With more creative options and real-time, no-render editing of all popac6ular SD, HD, 4K, and even 6K formats, EDIUS X Pro is the most versatile and fastest nonlinear editing software available. EDIUS Pro 9 comes with GV Browser source management to prepare content for subsequent editing in EDIUS.

EDIUS X Workgroup has optional modules to connect to the GV STRATUS video production & content management system and edit-in-place on a Grass Valley K2 SAN .Together with GV STRATUS, EDIUS Workgroup 9 introduces powerful speed and flexibility for broadcast, post-production and multiplatform environments.

Monitors

For interface and preview display monitors, we are pleased to offerÂ Samsung and LG monitors.

Besides amazing accurate color quality and accuracy, each Samsung monitor we offer comes standard with TILT, PIVOT, and HEIGHT adjustments.

The Samsung 32" monitor is a great choice with a lot of screen real estate. This Samsung monitor offers amazing 30 bit color (over a billion), and 30 BIT resolutions up to 2560 X 1600.

4K or UHD monitors are starting to become widely available. However, most of the models priced at less than $600 have very poor refresh rates making them unsuitable for video editing. You may choose a 4K monitor for use as an interface display (or two), or use it as a preview display. After looking at the modelsÂ available, weÂ believeÂ the LG model we offer gives you the best color (nearly 100% Adobe sRGB) and atÂ 4096 x 2160 (17:9). This monitor Â operates at the exact resolution of Digital Cinema 4K and support for 30bit color for over 1 billion colors.

Power Protection

Power Protection is very important to keep your system and your video clips and other media healthy.â€šYour most basic protection is the surge protector that we offer. If you live in an area where your power frequently goes out the 'UPS' is a must haveâ€šaccessory.

We offer a couple of UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) units with the specs needed to keep you system safe in the event of a power outage. The UPS also helps to smooth out your incoming power making your system more stable.

Our UPS solutions will safely shut down your DreamStation gracefully in the event of a power failure even if you are not at home (USB Connection to UPS required). The system will enter into a hibernate mode and power off after the current state is saved. When you restart, you can make sure you saved any changes and then reboot the system.

The UPS options we offer have wattage ratings for the case you have chosen. Choose the 900W for the smaller case, and the 1320W for the larger case.

You will be able to connect monitors (LED/LCD) to the UPS since there is enough head room.

Please note that if you intend to use a UPS that you may already own:

The UPS must have a minimum AVR rating of 1500VA/900W or damage to the system may occur. Let us know the model number and we can tell you if it is suitable for your system.
