Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Dear Avid: Baselight and Resolve let's go!

 

You said it Terry, "historically" there hasn't been any R&D devoted to Symphony. So Avid should make a decision - make it better, or ditch it, and fold the existing color functionality into MC. Nothing else makes sense.

Age old argument, but I have to disagree.

If they can sell Symphony at a higher price, and therefore dedicate more R&D
bucks to feature development for it, then that would be great. Unfortunately,
that has not been what Avid has done historically. :-(

without even the Symphony toolset, since I'm working in MC, and believe me, I
could stand to desaturate these highlights, something I can do without extra
plugins in FCP 7. Come on folks! Stop acting like Symphony CC is something users
should have to pay extra for! That much should be standard in every Avid
product.
