00:00:00.740 --> 00:00:07.140
on the part of the office where I sit there are a lot of arguments I don't

00:00:05.520 --> 00:00:12.059
care what you say pineapple belongs on pizza real mature it could be about

00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:18.119
YouTubers greatest YouTuber of all time I swear or

00:00:15.299 --> 00:00:22.520
if I get involved it's about the iPad macOS doesn't belong on the iPad

00:00:24.619 --> 00:00:30.060
and apple doesn't even help me make my case

00:00:28.140 --> 00:00:34.680
thanks to the inclusion of the M2 processor on the brand new iPad Pro

00:00:32.220 --> 00:00:40.739
there's technically no reason why it can't run macOS especially when docked

00:00:37.739 --> 00:00:42.239
to a magic keyboard or USBC Hub exactly

00:00:40.739 --> 00:00:47.460
I just want one device for everything yeah that's what I was trying to tell

00:00:44.760 --> 00:00:51.000
you but guys alongside the new hardware Apple announced that DaVinci Resolve

00:00:49.140 --> 00:00:55.260
would be coming to the device if Blackmagic thinks that it's professional

00:00:52.920 --> 00:01:00.840
grade video editing Suite is good enough for iPad OS then maybe I'm right and to

00:00:58.620 --> 00:01:07.939
find out I'm going to edit a whole video on this iPad spoiler though I wasn't

00:01:04.460 --> 00:01:07.939
entirely right

00:01:07.979 --> 00:01:13.260
back when I tried the M1 iPad Pro I had

00:01:11.220 --> 00:01:17.520
many gripes about its capability at the time it couldn't play prores video file

00:01:15.960 --> 00:01:22.560
management was annoying and nothing could fully utilize its impressive

00:01:19.260 --> 00:01:24.479
processor and display since then iPad OS

00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:27.960
Has Changed by so much I'm actually quite surprised how far it's come and

00:01:26.520 --> 00:01:31.860
some of the decisions like putting a powerful PC processor in here makes more

00:01:30.900 --> 00:01:36.299
sense in professional circles DaVinci Resolve

00:01:34.259 --> 00:01:40.320
is best known for its capabilities as a color grading application to help

00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:43.740
transform the look of footage for the rest of us the free version of the

00:01:41.939 --> 00:01:47.579
desktop app is an incredibly powerful video editor for those who want to get

00:01:45.240 --> 00:01:52.140
into it editing on a computer with a big screen and mouse has obvious benefits

00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:57.299
the large canvas and precise controls are essential for translating A Creative

00:01:54.540 --> 00:02:01.920
Vision into a finished product so with only a finger and Tiny screen how does

00:01:59.520 --> 00:02:06.000
that work on the iPad it's a good question and it's why on

00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:10.020
first launch DaVinci presents you with the cut and color pages as opposed to

00:02:08.099 --> 00:02:14.580
the seven pages available on the desktop app if you're used to a traditional

00:02:12.420 --> 00:02:17.879
timeline the cut page has a bit of a learning curve but after a couple of

00:02:16.140 --> 00:02:22.020
days I appreciate why they did it this way especially on this screen I was

00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:27.599
still surprised by how much I enjoyed video editing on the iPad yes it is

00:02:24.780 --> 00:02:33.000
slower don't expect to see edited on iPad in Apple's next Keynote

00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:37.020
but for short social videos rough storylines and quick news stories it's

00:02:35.099 --> 00:02:41.340
not only possible it's even kind of fun there's this delightful satisfaction to

00:02:39.300 --> 00:02:45.180
scrubbing and moving Clips around with one finger

00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:50.340
however if I had to choose between my finger or the pencil I'd use the pencil

00:02:47.940 --> 00:02:53.819
it's particularly great on the new iPad Pro because DaVinci Resolve takes

00:02:51.720 --> 00:02:59.160
advantage of the new hover feature I was initially skeptical about hover I mean

00:02:55.920 --> 00:03:01.379
it's just based off mouse over right but

00:02:59.160 --> 00:03:05.879
in the real world it feels like much more than that it adds a magical new

00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:10.379
layer of interactivity to the interface that just makes sense so as the tip of

00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:14.400
the pencil hovers over a button element it comes to life and when it grazes over

00:03:12.659 --> 00:03:19.860
a video clip in the media window it scrubs through it well this is so cool I

00:03:17.580 --> 00:03:24.720
have to show Ed thank you hey Ed

00:03:21.959 --> 00:03:29.640
oh yeah I know and I'm actually going to set up the iPad in the color Booth what

00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:35.040
you're gonna set up an iPad as a computer here like right now yeah I'm

00:03:32.700 --> 00:03:39.420
speechless let's go it turns out the Ed is so convinced by DaVinci on the iPad

00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:44.940
that he wants to actually set one up in the color correction Booth here at Linus

00:03:41.760 --> 00:03:46.860
Media Group that's what's going in here

00:03:44.940 --> 00:03:50.459
okay so I have to ask is it because DaVinci is now available on the iPad

00:03:48.420 --> 00:03:55.379
that's why you want to deploy here that was the biggest reason yeah I mean like

00:03:52.739 --> 00:04:00.959
the screen's fantastic and our normal systems are expensive so this being like

00:03:57.720 --> 00:04:03.180
under 2 000. we need this anymore no

00:04:00.959 --> 00:04:10.140
okay I'll take that out will we need this anymore no that doesn't work either

00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:13.980
will we need this uh no we have a apple

00:04:10.140 --> 00:04:16.260
pencil right I like clean the whole desk

00:04:13.980 --> 00:04:18.600
yeah I mean this is kind of all you need what have you learned in your time

00:04:17.400 --> 00:04:23.639
playing around with DaVinci on there I've learned that the touch interface is

00:04:20.699 --> 00:04:27.180
fantastic especially with a pencil you know adjusting the curves or using the

00:04:25.440 --> 00:04:32.160
wheels it's it's just a lot more intuitive than like using a mask what's

00:04:29.400 --> 00:04:36.000
this so I found all the stands that are out there for the iPad kind of put it

00:04:33.840 --> 00:04:40.320
like over there and then your keyboards here and if you want to use a pencil

00:04:37.740 --> 00:04:44.880
you're you're reaching over yeah so I made this thing so that it puts the iPad

00:04:43.259 --> 00:04:49.020
over your keyboard so that the distance between your keyboard hand and the

00:04:46.979 --> 00:04:54.300
pencil hand relatively the same awesome it appears that even here in the PCS of

00:04:51.540 --> 00:04:58.740
PC land the iPad is getting a plinth to celebrate its status as a fully capable

00:04:56.220 --> 00:05:02.639
computer I wasn't expecting this but even Ed thinks that there is Merit to

00:05:00.780 --> 00:05:07.860
keeping the macOS interface off the iPad

00:05:04.259 --> 00:05:09.780
oh wow whoa yeah that's worse

00:05:07.860 --> 00:05:13.919
how does this change sort of the way you you grade compared to how you did in the

00:05:11.400 --> 00:05:17.820
past uh in terms of ergonomics it's just a lot better it's a lot more comfortable

00:05:15.660 --> 00:05:21.900
natural feeling but this thing you have to click on a thing and then your your

00:05:20.100 --> 00:05:25.820
whole ARM is under tension while you're moving it right yeah whereas this thing

00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:33.120
I'm just like would you say that this is an example of

00:05:29.340 --> 00:05:36.780
an application where the way the iPad is

00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:39.360
it actually is better not being a PC

00:05:36.780 --> 00:05:43.320
certain features like like all of these they're fantastic it's so touch screen

00:05:41.699 --> 00:05:45.900
is just better so if you're just if you're just using it for color like you

00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:49.139
want to do then this is actually this actually

00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:53.840
works out this actually helps my argument right it does yes

00:05:55.320 --> 00:06:01.380
if you notice not once has Ed mentioned that it should have macOS yes we're

00:05:59.940 --> 00:06:04.740
getting back to that but before I do let me tell you about this video sponsor

00:06:02.940 --> 00:06:08.400
Squarespace can you really rely on social media

00:06:06.419 --> 00:06:12.600
anymore what about taking control of your online presence by making a website

00:06:10.919 --> 00:06:16.139
on Squarespace uh yes like the better days of the

00:06:14.460 --> 00:06:20.400
internet they've got everything you need to get started templates for business

00:06:17.699 --> 00:06:25.100
blog or portfolio Pages marketing tools if you want to take the next step and

00:06:21.840 --> 00:06:27.300
build your business and 24 7 support

00:06:25.100 --> 00:06:31.440
Instagram wouldn't give me any help when my account got hacked so give

00:06:29.520 --> 00:06:37.220
Squarespace A Try by going to squarespace.com Mac Address and you'll

00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:37.220
get 10 off your first purchase

00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:43.979
even without macOS it turns out that you can access what appears to be most

00:06:42.419 --> 00:06:48.360
of the functions found in the desktop DaVinci Resolve by messing around with

00:06:45.840 --> 00:06:52.440
these keyboard shortcuts you can get all the pages except deliver and even audio

00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:57.720
syncing tools it's like there's a whole app hidden

00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:59.340
under here well almost playing around

00:06:57.720 --> 00:07:04.500
with some of the functions it's clear that we weren't really intended to be

00:07:01.080 --> 00:07:06.419
turning any of these dials so let's get

00:07:04.500 --> 00:07:10.680
back to using DaVinci as it was intended with my project

00:07:08.280 --> 00:07:15.360
it turns out that editing a full Mac Address video on the iPad

00:07:12.960 --> 00:07:19.380
is a lot harder than I thought production environments like ours use

00:07:17.340 --> 00:07:22.740
expensive cameras microphones and audio recorders that need to be synced

00:07:20.819 --> 00:07:26.580
together it's already chaotic on a computer and given the audio sync

00:07:24.360 --> 00:07:29.940
function isn't a menu option it just wasn't possible

00:07:27.840 --> 00:07:34.319
okay so I may have been a little too ambitious with this project so I pivoted

00:07:32.400 --> 00:07:38.039
to editing a YouTube short I shot with an iPhone I actually think this is a

00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:43.020
truly excellent use case for video editing on the iPad though the layout of

00:07:40.860 --> 00:07:47.160
DaVinci Resolve isn't optimized for vertical video so we end up with all

00:07:45.300 --> 00:07:51.599
this wasted space space that already comes at such a

00:07:49.560 --> 00:07:55.199
premium that Blackmagic couldn't afford to put labels on many of the interface

00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:58.979
icons so there's no quick way to figure out what they do this was a bit of a

00:07:57.060 --> 00:08:03.380
problem on a Mac you can just hover the mouse over a button and a tool tip

00:08:00.840 --> 00:08:07.860
should pop up explaining its function that would be a great use of the

00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:12.780
pencil's hover feature I should confess that Ed's iPad setup isn't entirely

00:08:10.199 --> 00:08:17.340
perfect either he can output a full screen HDR feed to the external monitor

00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:23.400
but if he switches apps or pulls down the notification drop down

00:08:19.259 --> 00:08:26.340
it resets the output to no longer be HDR

00:08:23.400 --> 00:08:30.780
oh no what was that thing outside of Da Vinci dealing with files on the iPad is

00:08:28.680 --> 00:08:34.440
still a pain Point even just to edit you'll either need to pay for lots of

00:08:32.880 --> 00:08:38.940
storage built in or be willing to deal with an SSD dangling off your single

00:08:36.360 --> 00:08:43.380
precious Thunderbolt Port editing off a Wi-Fi network drive is possible but the

00:08:41.940 --> 00:08:48.660
network speeds aren't fast enough for the professional file formats that DaVinci supports and then if you want to

00:08:46.920 --> 00:08:53.459
copy those files off the network drive you'll be blind finding them for my

00:08:51.720 --> 00:08:56.820
project I needed to find an old clip and the file browsing unfortunately isn't

00:08:54.839 --> 00:09:00.240
available within DaVinci so I have to use the files app in the icon view

00:08:58.440 --> 00:09:05.760
thumbnails don't populate for video clips on network drives

00:09:02.600 --> 00:09:08.459
perhaps it appears that some of the

00:09:05.760 --> 00:09:13.500
arguments for macOS on the iPad remain I'd have no problem seeing thumbnails

00:09:11.040 --> 00:09:17.940
for these video clips in finder or better yet I could simply use desktop

00:09:15.180 --> 00:09:21.959
DaVinci's fully featured media page but would we get the clever hover effect on

00:09:19.980 --> 00:09:27.360
the pencil and would it not be hard to use on the 11 inch form factor

00:09:24.420 --> 00:09:31.320
there are things that make macOS good for certain tasks but if we have the

00:09:29.519 --> 00:09:34.800
imagination to think of them there are things that could make the iPad more

00:09:32.880 --> 00:09:39.660
portable more intimate and maybe even just better than macOS and if Apple

00:09:37.380 --> 00:09:43.920
caves and puts macOS on the iPad we might never see them come to fruition I

00:09:42.060 --> 00:09:47.160
can see why people are getting impatient Apple has been bringing both the

00:09:45.420 --> 00:09:51.600
capabilities and pricing of their Pro Models closer to the max so it's

00:09:49.320 --> 00:09:57.440
frustrating to be asked to pay for potential that maybe will be realized

00:09:54.300 --> 00:10:00.060
two years from now maybe

00:09:57.440 --> 00:10:03.420
along with video editing I tried the new stage manager on an external display

00:10:01.740 --> 00:10:07.380
it's much better than I remember but still odd and glitchy I wrote and edited

00:10:05.700 --> 00:10:10.740
this whole script in word with a magic keyboard and still encountered maddening

00:10:09.300 --> 00:10:14.240
issues like a delay when moving the cursor and unpredictable scrolling

00:10:12.660 --> 00:10:19.620
speeds when attempting to select multiple paragraphs of text

00:10:16.860 --> 00:10:24.540
I'm beginning to realize that most of my frustrations using the iPad come when

00:10:21.660 --> 00:10:30.300
I'm trying to use it like a Mac but I still believe that putting macOS

00:10:28.019 --> 00:10:34.080
on here is the wrong solution as I keep trying to tell my colleagues that would

00:10:32.640 --> 00:10:38.940
come at the expense of how the hardware gets used the tablet would be best

00:10:36.420 --> 00:10:44.100
docked not undocked and that would kill the whole idea of the iPad

00:10:41.160 --> 00:10:48.000
I'm not saying it's perfect iOS and now iPad OS is my Apple's on admission in a

00:10:46.380 --> 00:10:52.019
court of law restricted to be the car kids can drive I think it goes a little

00:10:49.980 --> 00:10:55.980
too far in weird ways file management doesn't need to be this difficult and

00:10:54.420 --> 00:11:00.720
Apple's controlling Tendencies can make it hard for developers to make the most

00:10:57.779 --> 00:11:05.640
of the platform all this has hampered the pace of innovation and possibility

00:11:02.880 --> 00:11:09.839
for the iPad because developers already skeptical of the tablet form factor I'm

00:11:07.920 --> 00:11:12.959
going to invest in creating new uses for this device when there's a gatekeeper

00:11:11.459 --> 00:11:19.019
controlling more than what they feel is reasonable and so we're here waiting to see who's

00:11:16.380 --> 00:11:22.560
going to invest in new use cases for this device and it looks like it's been

00:11:20.579 --> 00:11:27.300
Apple the whole time and they're taking their time

00:11:25.019 --> 00:11:30.540
oh yeah the video well you may have already seen the short I made on the

00:11:28.800 --> 00:11:34.260
iPad it's the one where I plug in a bunch of monitors into an M2 MacBook

00:11:32.339 --> 00:11:39.660
turned out pretty good I think I wanted to try editing on an iPad and

00:11:37.019 --> 00:11:43.380
it's neat and let's keep it that way and keep exploring how these fresh ideas can

00:11:41.640 --> 00:11:48.779
work elsewhere I might not have convinced you but some

00:11:46.800 --> 00:11:53.940
people are clearly responding to Apple's strategy of keeping the iPad iPad I keep

00:11:52.140 --> 00:11:58.260
meeting people who don't want it to be a Mac and talk about switching to the iPad

00:11:55.500 --> 00:12:01.500
on its merits hopefully in due time there are more merits to be uncovered

00:12:00.060 --> 00:12:05.760
and I'll make Believers out of all of you thanks for editing this Mac Address

00:12:03.420 --> 00:12:09.660
with only a finger if you disagree with me and think that macOS should be on

00:12:07.140 --> 00:12:12.899
the iPad give this video a like and if you think the future of the iPad is in

00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:18.540
video editing well you might as well subscribe now I'm curious in the comments what you think the next app

00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:21.180
that the iPad should adopt to really bring its capability up we got video

00:12:20.100 --> 00:12:23.899
editing what else
