Final Cut Pro “gets” ability to search for words in audio
Steve Hullfish | 04/14
Powerful new search ability uses phonetics to speed media searches
Avid and Adobe both have technology that allows users to search for specific words in the audio of their footage, but to date, that ability has not been part of the Final Cut Pro arsenal. A new piece of software from Nexidia and AV3 called “get” allows users to quickly search all their media based on actual spoken words within their content, rather than just Finder level data or FCP metadata. Once results are found, they can be used by FCP in the edit.

What got me excited about this product is that you can now find spoken words with OUT ever having to log your footage. You can
also add outside metadata to the search string to narrow your focus, for example, if you know you’re only searching Tuesday’s footage, you can tell “Get” to limit it’s search by adding a reel number or any type of file to the search string.
This product was my personal “Hit Pick” of NAB.

This sounds especially cool for doc and reality type work and if it works as advertised it’s well worth $499, IMO.
