Some of the features I write about below were added in updates previous to Version 4.4. The ability to clip video files with no transition has proved a very useful feature, as you can see in my sample video at the end of this review.

In addition Boinx has opted to join Apple's transition from QuickTime to AV Foundation, which means you will have to convert your legacy movie files or use FotoMagico to convert them. Among the new enhancements are 64bit and Mavericks compatibility, faster export, smoother transitions, and better color accuracy.

#Fotomagico 5 reviews update#

This November update is more about adding finesse to the product than new features. Recently updated to version 4.4, it now works with Lightroom 5 libraries.

#Fotomagico 5 reviews pro#

Both versions of FotoMagico 5 include the ability to build slideshows using snippets, but only the Pro edition now works in timeline view.įotoMagico 5 also introduces a feature called Snippets, a far more powerful way to build custom slideshows.When you need a photo presentation combined with music, video and special effects, FotoMagico from Boinx Software in Germany is a great choice. Stories can be used to create complete, start-to-finish presentations using royalty-free music in a variety of themes like Sightseeing, Beach, or Zoo, each with pre-composed placeholder shots the user swaps out for their own images. You can add, rearrange, edit, or delete individual slides as needed. There are also a variety of other drag-and-drop snippets for intros, titles, split-screens, effects, credits, and music, so even if you choose to build entire slideshows from scratch, FotoMagico 5 helps automate the process without the cookie-cutter look and feel of a template. You can purchase additional snippets from the Boinx website, or create your own to reuse later in other projects.įotoMagico 5 includes a number of export options, but only the Pro version can handle ProRes and custom video files.Īs a result of forking back into two applications, a number of previous features are no longer part of the consumer version, notably timeline view, access to Lightroom or Aperture libraries, and the ability to export ProRes video files. FOTOMAGICO 5 REVIEWS PROīut FotoMagico 5 Pro has several new tricks up its sleeve. Users can now incorporate placeholder text into presentations, such as EXIF metadata stored inside photos, slide numbers, or title and artist information from the currently playing music track.Įditing text in previous versions was rarely a pleasurable experience, but Boinx finally kicked the slow, inefficient OS X font panel to the curb, incorporating native formatting options directly into the Options sidebar. The company also answered the call when it comes to audio, introducing precise keyframe control over volume level-perfect for situations where automatic “ducking” of the music track can’t handle the job.After using the bag for about a week I began to notice a subtle squeak when carrying it around. The source of the sound is the metal snaphook from the strap rubbing against the metal eyelit on the bag. I used some silicon based bicycle chain lubricant and it went away. I spoke with Tom Bihn and they recommend rubbing a graphite pencil on the offending pieces. Tom Bihn reports they are aware of this and are working on it. Over the last six weeks I carried it through the Canadian wilderness and down the Las Vegas strip. Its been thrown in trunks, dragged by kids, and schlepped around everywhere with me. More importantly, it has performed just as advertised. The Ristretto is a great solution for the iPad and just a bit more.

If you routinely use Apple’s Bluetooth keyboard, it’s perfect. I liked it so much, I bought another one for my wife.

Band in a Box Reviewįor guitar players, Band in a Box also includes ‘RealCharts’ with an on-screen guitar display so that you can hear the audio performance and learn from on-screen notation, tablature, or visual guitar fretboard. This application could be extremely useful for students, musicians, singers, and music teachers. For music students in particular it is a fantastic tool teaching chord structures as well as providing an excellent back up band to play along with. It would also be nice for the karaoke crowd in that you could make a back up tape for any song you have chord changes to in the style of your preference. You can learn more about Band in a Box at. They have a variety of licenses starting at $129 and some versions (with the large real tracks and real drums files) ship on a USB hard drive.
