Since several years editing softwares can Proxy transcode all  imported native Media. It makes things simpler.

The key benefits is that each timeline’s clips has 2 sources : Proxy Media & Native Media.

Advantages

1. Transcoding happens during classify & review the clips
2. Media doesn’t need huge storage ➧ 1  simple Hard Drive is enough
3. Media have a low Bandwidth ➧ 1  simple Hard Drive is enough
4. Native Media (complex) are ONLY used for final Export

Disadvantage

1. Color grading on Proxys media is a nonsense

With 2 software, it has no interest, too unbalanced between the CPU horsepower needed for Editing and Color grading.
