Review: Premiere Pro CS4

Premiere Pro CS3’s debut on the Mac last year was impressive, especially given the challenges it faced. It not only had to overcome the lacklustre reputation of its previous Mac-compatible predecessor, Premiere 6.5, but it also had to reclaim the territory it had ceded to Apple and Avid editing systems during its long absence. Today, Premiere Pro has more firmly established a reputation with Mac-based editors, and this new version will enhance its credibility.

First Look: Premiere Pro CS4

Although Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 will be the fourth incarnation of Adobe’s professional video editing software, it’s only the second version compatible with the Mac OS. Its debut on the Mac was a laudable, though for many, overdue. By now, Premiere Pro has had time to shed associations with its last Mac-compatible predecessor, Premiere 6.5, and establish a fresh reputation with Mac users. The latest version includes features that should further strengthen its credibility on the Mac platform.
