NewBlue Titler Pro 5 to come free with EDIUS 9
According to this thread on the Grass Valley forum: https://forum.grassvalley.com/forum/showthread.php?t=40934 when the OFX Bridge for EDIUS is released for EDIUS 9 it will come with a free version of Titler Pro 5.
The OFX Bridge is a free add-on for EDIUS which lets you use OFX plug-ins inside EDIUS. With EDIUS 8 it came with Titler Pro 2, but the licence for that only lasted a year. On this thread GV are saying that if you have EDIUS Workgroup 9 you will get a free version of Titler Pro 5, and that it will be a permanent licence, not time limited.
It is not available yet because GV have not released a version of the OFX bridge for EDIUS 9, but that is coming soon. When it does I will have more information on how this deal will work.
My favourite Titler for EDIUS is VisTitle, but Titler Pro is actually very powerful. NewBlue have just released Titler Pro 6 and so will be hoping you upgrade from the free V5; it is also possible there is some limitation to the free version – the version that used to ship with the Bridge was not as “realtime” as the paid for version – but that will not stop it being better than QuickTitler and free!
Why is Titler Pro coming with the OFX bridge? Because NewBlue wrote the OFX bridge for Grass Valley. I will post more information on this when it is available.
If you would prefer VisTitle then I do have a couple of copied left which you can buy from me. In the old DVC company I used to import VisTitle from China and resell it and the plug-ins in the UK. At present I do not have the resources to buy a few thousand pounds worth of stock and resell it, which means there is not really anywhere in Europe where you can buy VisTitle. If you would like to order one of the two copies I have left please contact me on david@dvctraining.co.uk or 07443 512146.
Update
8th December 2017
I have to report I made a mistake in my post on an ulmited version of NewBlue Titler Pro 5 coming with EDIUS Workgroup 9. Titler Pro 5 will come with EDIUS 9 but it will be an unlimited version in both the Pro and the Workgroup versions – not just in the Workgroup version.
You will get NewBlue Titler Pro 5 installed when you install the OFX bridge for EDIUS 9. This has not been released yet but will hopefully be out this month. I will post here when I it is released.
Hopefully, I will also make some quick videos on how to use Titler Pro 5 soon as well. It does depend on how busy I am in the run up to Christmas. There are actually a lot on the NewBlue website anyway, although they are spread out over various versions so there is a lot to get through!
