Hake had edited many of the episodes of “Danni Lowinski” with Apple® Final Cut Pro® and a PROMISE Pegasus R4 — and for the fourth season he added the and to his arsenal, which provided him with an unparalleled level of performance and flexibility.
The workflow of “Danni Lowinski” requires Hake to edit rough cuts in his studio in Berlin and then travel to Cologne to finish the final cuts alongside the show-s director, Richard Huber. The Pegasus J4 has proven to be extremely versatile and helpful to Hake, as he can now easily move his edit suite from Berlin to Cologne. As an added bonus — he can take the J4 as carry-on luggage and not worry about drives getting lost or destroyed in the mail. With his laptop, an AJA T-TAP and the Pegasus J4, Hake is provided with the flexibility to take his edit studio along wherever his work may take him.
“The Pegasus J4 with Intel® 520 Series SSDs has been nothing short of amazing,” noted Hake. “It is extremely fast and responsive with Final Cut Pro X. I love the flexibility of the system — the convenience of moving an edit suite from one place to another is truly a great thing to have.”
