This IS the Avid L2: Re: [Avid-L2] When do we get bigger-than-HD in MC?

I get that completely. I'm not saying that DS and Symphony are equal. The question was "If I move from Symphony to DS will the COLOR CORRECTION tools be foreign to me?"

That's what I was addressing. What is your take on that as someone who has clearly done both?

Not taking into account the other learning curve issues but sticking to a Symphony guy doing CC on a DS...
