I don't have too great a budget, but I do want to fix some of the outdated parts of my setup. My work is primarily on 3Ds Max and ZBrush, and heavy,…
The sequencer is beating me up, I can't get it to space out the tracks back to back with a 10 frame buffer. So far all I've managed to pull off is have it adjust all the tracks to the same start frame.
