the benefits of using microcosm

Microcosm offers a great way to archive footage. When archiving, maintaining the original image quality is a paramount concern. Due to this, files are often archived with little or no compression.

Microcosm makes it possible to keep the necessary quality but reduce the space and time it takes to archive projects or make backups. This is a great time saver for backups, especially in the middle of a project where there may be many intermediary renders being used for various purposes.
