Automatic Duck

What do you like best?

We just starting using automatic duck to convert Apple based projects sent from our clients to Adobe friendly files that we have full control over, and we could not be more excited about how well it works. Sequences from FCP convert usually flawlessly into After effects sequences. Before this plugin, we would have to piece apart renders sent from clients our of FCP and re-sequence projects if extensive edits were needed.

What do you dislike?

Its not perfect, sometimes transitions and effects don't port over perfectly, but for the most part it has saved our team a ton of time when platform mismatch issues do arise.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Definitely consider this plugin if you frequently deal with projects coming from FCP X into an Adobe workflow.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Automatic duck solves the age old problem of platform non-compatibility, and does quite a good job at bridging the gap between the main video software packages on the market.
