Multicam Video Recorder

I am going to be working on a project soon that will be using this device (Convergent Design Apollo Recorder)

Will I be able to import the file into Vegas in a similar manner to the way it is handled in Premiere?

I think that an EDL is produced for the line mix file--will this work in Vegas 18?

Thanks in advance for any help or advice

I think it depends on what the recording format is...ProRes should open fine in v18... haven't tried 4444 though. But definitely not RAW or any of the DNx stuff. Vegas supports reading and saving EDLs but haven't ever used them myself... from posts I've seen, folks often seem to open them with a text editor and manually drop the pieces into place.

If you go to 10:25 in the video he explains how it is not a standard ProRes file that gets outputted from the Apollo, the 4 cameras are wrapped together and need to be unpacked before you can work with them. I am unsure what the process to do this would be in Vegas 18? Thanks for the feedback Howard
