About FastTracker Panel
FastTracker Panel connects After Effects and Premiere Pro to the FastTracker server database provided with Facilis shared storage products. The panel lets users search the database, preview proxy clips, and import media into Premiere Pro projects while preserving metadata and proxy file links. Asset security is handled via user account login, and catalogs can be restricted from access. Indexing and preview generation can be automated on Facilis volumes, direct-attached storage, and network storage. Version 3.7.1 (October 2021) adds a Make/Clear Primary option for setting a primary directory for records, automation improvements that accept files from any known location, a Select All action for extended batch processing, and a white status bubble to indicate archive-primary files.
