Hey everyone,

I am in the process of implementing an AE network render setup for our offi= ce and wanted to get input from other users actively doing this. Oddly enou= gh we really haven't had a real need for one until now.

So far I have been pointed towards:

Smedge: http:= //www.uberware.net/smedge/

Rush: http://seriss.c= om/rush/

Deadline: http://www.thinkboxsoftware.com/deadline/

The ultimate goal and process our house is dealing with will be outputting = 2K-4K DPX sequences. I already know about making sure that all machines inv= olved being uniform software wise across the board. I am more curious about= real world experience with these setups. Looking for recommendations, pitf= alls, etc...

Right now I am setting up our Macs only. I might add the PC's later, bu= t would keep them isolated to prevent PC and MAC issues with variances.

At the moment we have 7 macs available for this setup. I appreciate any inp= ut, thanks.
