Re: [Avid-L2] What's your best Avid Tip/Discovery from 2012?

Upgrading to v6 this year brought an easy way to switch my audio output
setting (stereo/mono/direct). Instead of having to open the Audio Project
setting, navigate to Output, and choose what I want, now it's a button
right up in the Audio Mixer. This saves me a buttload of time, as I'm
always switching to accommodate for QT outputs, ref outputs, and tape
layoffs.

It may have been there the whole time, I don't know, but I didn't find it
there until v6, and I don't even care. It's great.
