"As the industry's largest showcase, NAB is the perfect location for us to debut and demonstrate our newest production tools," said John Freeborg, vice president of Sony Creative Software. "The Catalyst Production Suite fuses powerful media preparation and fast, focused video editing, providing the backbone for a great video production experience. Catalyst Prepare paves the path from camera to post with robust organizational tools, strong color adjustment and monitoring, and extensive metadata support while Catalyst Edit provides a lean, focused video editing environment making the cutting process fast and fluent. Further, as every filmmaker knows, you cannot underestimate the power of audio in video. Our core audio applications, Sound Forge Pro and SpectraLayers Pro, are among the most powerful audio editing tools available. Offered together as Audio Master Suite 2, this bundle's ability to refine and perfect audio simply must be heard to be believed."

Throughout the NAB show, Sony Creative Software is hosting daily stage presentations, including:

Catalyst Production Suite – Media Preparation and focused, fast cutting for 4K, RAW, and HD video

This presentation of Catalyst Production Suite highlights the streamlined workflow from camera through post. Starting in Catalyst Prepare with confidence checks on set through media offload, attendees will see firsthand the tight integration into Catalyst Edit. The Catalyst team will show how to cut 4K and Sony RAW to take advantage of the amazing resolution of 4K, as well as the high dynamic range and wide color gamut of Sony RAW and XAVC formats. Guests will learn how simple multichannel audio workflow is in Catalyst Edit, and how the program's focused timeline editing tools make production much faster and easier.
