Re: [Avid-L2] Re: A goodbye; Selling my copy of MC7 + Dongle

Yes the Baselight plugin does interface with the Avid Artist panel well
(better than Symphony, not quite as well as Resolve IMHO) but there's some
hoops to jump through in terms of getting it to - it can't share the panel
with Avid.

I had 25fps playback with simple grades using 2-3 layers via my Nitris DX.
