Avid to hold second demonstration tour

Avid Technology Europe are to embark on a second tour of broadcasters in the UK and Ireland from September 23 to October 24 2002.
Avid will be demonstrating their range of broadcast products from a specially commissioned and equipped vehicle, dubbed ‘The Avid Broadcast Bus’. The Bus will be visiting 14 broadcasters in 11 cities during the month.
The Broadcast Bus made its first tour of eight broadcast sites in July 2001 and proved a great success with visitors. This year the Broadcast Bus houses the majority of the Avid product range, including the Avid Unity family, the Avid NewsCutter family, an Avid Media Composer system, an Avid|DS HD system, an Avid Xpress DV v3.5 system and a Digidesign Pro Tools system. A series of Avid Xpress DV workshops will also be run.
Mike Morrissy, Avid UK’s Director of Broadcast, said: "Broadcasters no longer have the headcount to allow them to visit vendors for regular updates, so last year we decided to take Avid’s products to them. It proved so successful that we decided to do it again, extending the tour from eight broadcast sites to 14 and showing a slightly different product mix."
The Avid Broadcast Bus Route is available from www.avid.co.uk.
