Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Symphony CC overview video

 

All very irrelevant for 99 percent of the end users. (arrogant guestimation
from me)
Since we got virtually unlimited video tracks and lots of matting / keying
stuff, all that is needed is there.
Perhaps not as hip as possible, but it gets the job done.
(and probably sometimes even better than the high end stuff where people are
blind to options, just work with the stuff that is in their high end box)
(well, make that a sure thing in my little shop...)
