Avid outlines benefits of latest version Media Composer software

The latest version of Avid editing solution Media Composer | Software is now available. This release features faster and more efficient workflows, continuing to deliver on the Avid EverywhereT vision of connecting content creators with their audiences in more powerful, efficient and profitable ways.

As part of the Avid Artist Suite of creative tools, Media Composer | Software is powered by the Avid MediaCentral Platform, giving editors access to an even wider range of tools and expertise for collaboration, production, and monetisation of content.

In direct response to the editing community’s need to deliver high-quality, inspiring content while pressured by compressed project schedules, Avid has introduced time-saving capabilities to Media Composer | Software. These features are available to all new and existing Media Composer | Software customers regardless of whether they are on perpetual licenses or using the recently introduced floating or subscription licenses.

Key new time-saving tools and capabilities for Media Composer | Software enable editors to: speed up editing with new timeline enhancements; toggle clips and tracks on and off in the timeline; create higher quality sound effects and mixes with AAX plug-ins; integrate DPX files directly into workflows; carry out multicam editing in 3D; generate multiple audio mixdowns automatically; create comprehensive reference files easily with Simplified AAF; and more.
