Avid ship real-time HD and SD finishing systems

Avid Technology have announced the worldwide availability of Avid DS Nitris and Avid DS Nitris Editor – the only finishing systems on the market to deliver real-time effects and colour correction with two streams of uncompressed 10-bit HD media and eight streams of 10-bit uncompressed SD media.
The Avid DS Nitris family supports a wide range of high-quality formats, from compressed SD to 2K, and delivers a deep set of video and audio editing capabilities – including Symphony-style colour correction.
“When I sat down at the Nitris system, the first thing I did was digitise uncompressed 10-bit HD media, throw on some colour correction, hit play, and bam! It all played back in real time. It absolutely blew my mind,” said Gus Comegys, lead editor at Digitalize, a Los Angeles-based online facility and Avid DS Nitris beta tester. “Avid|DS HD is rapidly becoming the de facto standard for HD finishing. With Avid DS Nitris on the market, I can’t imagine why anyone would consider using another nonlinear product for completing HD projects.”
The Avid DS Nitris and Avid DS Nitris Editor systems are the most powerful members of the Avid DNA family, the industry’s only hybrid architecture designed to leverage the capabilities of both host-based software processing and hardware-based acceleration, delivering unparalleled performance that scales with the power of host CPUs.
