[Avid-L2] Re: Hopeful news for Symphony

 

I keep coming back to hardware in this conversation. When Symphony was introduced, it was hardware that differentiated it from Media Composer. Uncompressed video, SDI I/O, chips for color correction and then a chip for Ultimatte. With the Nitris Classic gear - also hardware.

Once things have gone to software and an I/O system that works equally well with MC or Symphony, you end up with a software package that includes all the features, but where some of them are disabled or enabled through software keys or other coding. Such artificial restrictions tend to irritate users.

So *how* Avid moves forward is as important as what it actually adds or changes.
