Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Symphony owners?

 

I think it's true there have been feature innovations, and many of them make me happy. But the color tool seems to be preserved in amber.

Best,
Shirley

Just to even out the balance a bit I must say I almost totally disagree.

Without going on and on for example..

what other software company is selling 10 year old functionality?

Think Word, excel, outlook, etc etc.

I think it's pretty good at the moment the pace of MC advancement. Almost

too quick for us to keep pace.

Very well put!

We don't seem to have any problem agreeing with each other on this one; now,

if only someone at Avid agreed with us, perhaps something would actually

happen.

Frank, do you still read the list?

Agreed.

It is utterly depressing that in the year 2011 -- the only material

differentiator between MC and Symphony is still Advanced Color Correction

and

Universal Mastering.

It is also utterly depressing that in year 2011 -- both of these platforms

are

still wallowing in obsolete toolsets that are over 10 years old. I mean --

really -- what other software company is selling 10 year old functionality?

I won't go into the gory details of what is wrong with these two products --

except to say that if Avid is unaware of their shortcomings-- we are all in

deep

trouble.

What I will say is my opinion that there is simply no reason for these two

products to not be merged into one.

And for that one surviving product to have herculean developmental resources

thrown at it -- to overcome the past 10 years of squandered opportunity --

that

would have allowed Avid to be an innovative leader -- and not an embarrasing

follower.
