Summary

By now, you can see that there are many different ways to get source material into Premiere. This chapter also demonstrates Premiere's flexibility and versatility. The point is, no matter what type of source material you have, there are probably ten different ways to get that material into Premiere. Most of your controls and settings are from the capture card hardware and software you install on your system. So if there's any place to spend a bit more money, you might as well put it into a high-end capture card. After all, if you don't capture high-quality source material to begin with and take the time to set it up correctly, your output video will look like garbage.
