ProRES with PPro CC & Win7 / RODE Pro Mic question

Hi!

I'm pretty new to the BMPCC, so I have a question no one was able to answer yet (googled, searched, etc.):

I want to edit ProRES in Premiere Pro CC on my Windows 7 (x64) machine. Has anyone the same set-up?
What sequence-settings do you use, especially for "Video Previews"? I've set it to "Custom" and "I-Frame Only MPEG". Is that the best possible setting or is there a better one? The most important thing for me is to keep the 10-bit 4:2:2 while editing / doing colors, etc.
Or is there a benifit from using the new "Blackmagic Design" presets? They are all set to "Uncompressed YUV" or "Uncompressed RGB" though..


On another note, I want to use the Rode VideoMIC Pro. What's the best settings in the audio menu / on the mic?
At the moment, I have it at
Mic: 100%
Level: MIC
Line1: 50%
Setting: (checked)
Line2: 50%
Monitor: 0%
and the Rode at +20db.


Big thanks in advance!

Regarding Premiere Pro.. Firstly, I should mention use FCP for my editing..

One time I tried to use Premiere CS6 to edit some of my prores footage and couldn't do it. After a lot of googling I found out that Premiere doesn't have codecs to display the footage for editing. You can export ProRes, but not edit in it... anyway this is what I found (since no one has responded yet to your question).

That's incorrect. I use ProRes from the BMCC for editing in Premiere Pro CS6.

You cannot export in ProRes from Premiere Pro.

This ^^^

If you have issues using the proRes in your Premiere Pro, than double check to make sure you have the latest installation of Quicktime Player installed, this should install the necessary codecs onto your system.

Thanks guys, i'll see if i have the latest QuickTime.

Quicktime for Windows itself does not come with ProRes. You have to install the ProRes decoder:

For the project settings: use the settings for ARRI in CS6.

If you have no idea which settings, just create a project with DV settings, than drag a clip to the timeline and Premiere CS6 will ask you, if it should change the settings to fit to the clip. Let it do that.

You don't really need Video Preview setting since you usually don't need to pre-render anything.
If in doubt set it to uncompressed.

@Robert - never saw an "Arri" setting in PP before. Sure doesn't come with the package.

I think it came with the new 7.2 update for Creative Cloud.

Settings came with CS6 - ARRI and Canon XF.

Thanks guys, I'll test them.

btw: Did some tests with the YUV Uncompressed BMD presets, ran smooth as hell.
