Megjelent az Avid DS kompozíciós, grading rendszer legfrissebb, 11-es verziója. Mind a vételár, mind az upgrade ár a régebbi változatokról tartalmazza a Media Composer szoftver egy példányát is.
A fontosabb újdonságokról a gyártó honlapján érdemes tájékozódni:
New features in Avid DS 11
- Get Media Composer 6 included with Avid DS (full and upgrades), and edit and color video with speed and ease (3rd party software bundle not included).
- Gain hands-on precision and speed up color correction, grading, editing, and navigation with support for Artist Color and Artist Transport control surfaces.
- Get resolution independence with the canvas, enabling you to customize the size for source generators and visual effects.
- Apply blending operations directly on the timeline to single or multiple clips or containers.
- Conform high-resolution sequences to Avid DS from Media Composer 6 or Symphony 6 (except stereoscopic 3D).
- Connect to and play Long-GOP MXF essence (such as from XDCAM) when conforming from Media Composer or Symphony, eliminating transcoding time.
- Edit high-resolution media in real time-in master quality-using the Avid DNxHD 444 codec.
- Use HDR imagery in your projects with support for the Open EXR/TIFF DCDM format.
- Capture and output up to 16 channels of audio (up from 8) to create bigger, richer audio mixes.
- Work with RED EPIC and SCARLET footage with the new RED SDK.
- Integrate KONA 3G hardware, as well as any hardware supported by Media Composer and Symphony, into your Avid DS workflow.
