I’m actually more psyched about CS5.5 than I was about CS5. Adobe has made a lot of great improvements in a bunch of applications, and have corrected some of the grievous mistakes of the past.
Personally, I’m really glad the cat is out of the bag so that I can talk about those portions of my book which have been under embargo for the past four months. Those chapters that are not available should become available very soon!
So what are the hi-lights for me?
- Flash Builder Premium 4.5 (mobile Flex framework and tooling, enough said!!!)
- Flash Professional CS5.5 (mobile integration, great overall improvements)
- Dreamweaver CS5.5 (jQuery Mobile, PhoneGap, HTML5)
- Audition CS5.5 (Resurrected!)
- Premiere Pro and After Effects CS5.5 (Warp Stabilizer is mind-blowing)
- Adobe Media Encoder CS5.5 (Too many improvements to list)
Yep- they listened to us and are including Flash Builder 4.5 Premium in Master Collection and Web Premium! That was such an oversight for the CS5 release. Shameful!
Soundbooth is DEAD. Long live Audition! I loved having Audition as part of Production Premium CS2. When it was dropped from the CS3 suites and replaced with Soundbooth, I was pretty upset. Well, dancin’ on you grave tonight, Soundbooth!!!
(errr… my condolences to the Soundbooth team)
Great job, Adobe!
