Hi,
is there any reason I couldn't install a RED ROCKET card on my MacPro 2.26 8 core, running Media Composer 3.5.9 with Adrenaline HD box.
I know the Avid cannot use the Rocket, but I envision doing first light in Rocket CineX, then using the Rocket to convert R3D to Avid DNxHD mxf media with ALE, then importing to Avid as per normal mxf. All on the same box.
Is anyone doing this?

Cheers, KJ

Should be fine, Adrenaline hardware uses the FireWire bus for connection, while the REDROCKET uses the PCIe.
