Today's eWEEK Labs newsletter has a short piece "Adobe Creative Suite 5.5:
Why developers, Designers Should Adopt" which adds some insight to where
Adobe is going in the future, as follows:
"The new Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 product line enables designers and
developers to target popular and emerging smartphone and tablet platforms,
as the revolution in mobile communications fundamentally changes the way
content is distributed and consumed, Adobe officials said. Creative Suite
5.5, also known as CS 5.5, features substantive advances to HTML5, Flash
authoring, digital publishing and video tools as well as new capabilities
that kick-start the integration of tablets into creative workflows."
Uwe mentions Audition 5.5 and the news bit adds it has a completely
rewritten audio engine. Further, it says Adobe "is opening the doors to
two-way communication between mobile and tablet devices and Photoshop CS5."
with a new Photoshop Touch SDK and has three new example apps for that
purpose: Adobe Color Lava, Adobe Eazel, and Adobe Nav (I didn't research
whether it is part of the suite) - the example apps are for artist-types,
but I'm a hardware and software engineer and am unlikely to use them, but
they're interesting nonetheless.
The point of all this is to note the heavy emphasis on developing for mobile
devices and web sites. Does that mean we need to go out and get a tablet
now?

Hi Kelvin,
The upgrade is for Premiere, After Effects, Media Encoder and a few of
the programmes that come
with the suite but which I am not using and the biggest surprise is they
are bringing back Audition5.5.
instead of Soundbooth.
I looked at the new features and they are just about all for big
producers. That will be the case with most
upgrades that will come out in the future (and not only for Adobe).
The only feature I would like to have is the Warp Stabilizer in AE. My
friend who is a beta tester for Adobe
thinks it beats anything that is available at the moment. One does
unfortunately not get it as a plugin for
CS5. I guess I will have to live without it and still use my three
legged stabilizer.
My friend also told me that Adobe will bring out one update every year.
A major one every two years and a
smaller one every year in between. So next year it will be CS6.
Final Cut Pro have also just announced a new version FCP X and so it
will go on and on.
All these programmes are geared more for professionals than us - so let
them upgrade:-) !
Have a nice day
Uwe
