Complete timeline reconstruction flexibility
Whether you're creating very complex multi-layered creations in your Avid, Final Cut Pro or Premiere Pro system for composition in combustion, or simply need to treat a single shot, there is no simpler way to pick up in combustion 3 where you left off in your NLE. In a matter of seconds your edited timeline appears in combustion.
Slip your shots in combustion using media handles
Not only are your edits translated, your media is imported -- All the media referenced by your sequence. This means you can actually slip and trim your shots in combustion without having to go back to your NLE to re-edit and re-export!
Support for common Avid effects including
- Dissolve
- Superimpose
- Picture-in-Picture, with support for nesting inside PIP effect!
- 3D Warp
- 3D PIP
- Submaster
- Flops and Flips
- Speed Changes (constant speed)
- Freeze Frames
- Transfer Modes from Profound Effects' Transfer AVX plug-in
- and more!
Support for common Final Cut Pro effects including
- Dissolve
- Opacity (from motion tab)
- Position ("center" in motion tab)
- Rotation (from motion tab)
- Scale (from motion tab)
- Flops and Flips
- Speed Changes (constant speed)
- Freeze Frames
- Composite Modes
- and more!
Support for common Premiere Pro effects including (Since we import the AAF exported by Premiere, we are limited somewhat in what we can import.)
- Dissolve
- Opacity (from motion tab)
- Position (from motion tab)
- Scale (from motion tab)
- Flops and Flips
- Speed Changes
Layer name maintenance, what you had is what you get
When you import your sequence, the layers in combustion are named after the clips you had in your Avid of FCP timeline. You know immediately what shot is what. No dealing with odd media file names.
Collapsed/nested layers turned into nested compositions
Amazingly, your collapsed layers and nested effects are turned into nested composites in combustion. No need to first explode your nests before you export (from Avid or FCP only)!
OMF or AAF
Pro Import Cmb has the ability to import both AAF and OMF files from Avid editing systems.
Note: Network licenses of combustion are NOT supported

I finished yesterday the Color correction of a french short movie called "Passe Temps".
Automatic Duck let me import in Combustion an OMF exported from an Avid system. That way I did not loose any image information, and I was able to color correct each edited sequence independently, one by one, as the OMF Pro Importer transcribe exactly each footage into layers in combustion.
Without it, I should have ask the editor to export a quicktime movie which would have took a while, then I would had to retrieve and cut each sequence in combustion. Then I would have been able to begin to work. My work on this movie was color correcting, and thanks to Pro Importer I did it the way it should be.

Running Combustion 3 on my Avid Symphony was always a great way to increase my creative capability, but I would never have thought to offer it with clients in the room.
Now I can, Pro Import C3 allows me to switch over with very little effort. My existing Avid media is recognized by Combustion and I am off and running to create, Integrate in 3D space, and render at a much higher bit depth than my NLE can".

The integration of Combustion and an NLE make Pro Import C3 an invaluable plugin for any digital media artist. A MUST HAVE!
After using Pro Import C3 for Combustion I don't think I could work without it ever again.
