Re: [Avid-L2] Ver. 7 MC with Symphony Option dongle backwards compatibility?

John, I opened a 7.0.2 bin and sequence in 6.5.4 yesterday. It opened
with no real problems. 6.5.4 did insist on making a duplicate of the
sequence and upgrading (downgrading?) the effects. I did not notice any
problems but I wasn't really editing in 6.5.4, just looking at a few
things. Color correction was there but I did not have the 6.5.4 system
hooked to a good monitor so I would not have noticed if the video looked
different. The same 7.0.2 bin would not open in 6.5.2. --J.B.
