Re: [Avid-L2] Re: MC 5.5 press release

While I'm happy Avid is starting to support more hardware vendors, I'd still
like some MXO2 LE or Kona3 support. Maybe in MC6...

will. So, you open a find window, type in a phrase, and poke 'phrase find.'
The nexidia engine does a phonetic index of everything in your project - not
just the open bins - then presents a list of 'probable candidates,' ranked
in order of probability. So, imagine you've got a squeaky director's chair,
and the interview he says something like 'going to be nominated for an
award' only, he moves his tired bones exactly on the word 'nominated,' and
the chair CREEKS so bad, you can't slice it out, even with X-Click! This
happened yesterday. I simply did a phrase find on the word 'nominated,'
limited the results to my interviewee, and then listened to EVERY SINGLE
TIME he said 'nominated' in all the interviews I had in that project. Found
a perfect replacement. No one will ever know. Your producer have 'producer
memory?' Remembers an actor saying something specific? Phrase find it. This
is NOT a replacement for a good transcription, but it's a hell of a tool in
its own right.

Kudos to the team at Avid - it's been really interesting to be part of this,
and I'm really proud to say we're beta testing (along with a very large,
here-to-fore silent, group.) It's a completely different company than just a
few short years ago.

Analog in. We were already running FCP and Avid in most of our rooms - but
with separate hardware. Now they use the same hardware. Knut is right, I/O
express ain't no Kona 3- if you want that functionality, stick with Nitris
DX (now at significant discount!)
