Review Summary
The Avid Media Composer 7 Video Editor Software with Interplay (Student Version, (Electronic Download)) is a single license, electronic download of the 64-bit non-linear editing system for Mac or Windows computers. This version of the software is only available to college/university students and is compatible with available Avid Interplay solutions, allowing it to interface with your existing Interplay system. You receive an activation card that allows you to register the software on one computer. Media Composer 7 allows you to work with most file formats and resolutions, including SD, HD, stereoscopic (3D) and resolutions above HD, using ACE certified editing tools. It also features built-in effects, transitions and titling tools. With Media Composer 7, you can mix and match different formats, frame rates and resolutions in the same timeline without rendering. Media Composer 7 features Full 4:4:4 HD RGB support, color correction tools and ProRes encoding (Mac version only.)
Featuring built-in support for stereoscopic/3D footage, it is a full-fledged stereoscopic editing system. It is also compatible with a wide range of effects plug-ins. It features a multicam editing mode for cutting between 9 cameras simultaneously. For audio support, Media Composer 7 features built-in 7.1 surround sound support and audio mixing of up to 64 audio voices. It also features improved audio keyframing on the timeline and supports Pro Tools RTAS plug-ins. It supports available Avid and non-Avid hardware I/O cards and devices and comes bundled with Avid FX (Boris RED), Sorenson Squeeze and AVID DVD, which allows you to author DVDs.
Accelerate your high-res workflow
More content today is shot with high-res cameras, but the majority of programming is still HD. With the new FrameFlex tools, you can immediately start working in HD directly from high-res sources and maintain full creative control of the image reframing and keyframing, from beginning to end. In addition, 1D/3D Look Up Tables (LUTs) and Color Decision Lists (CDLs) make it easy to perform real-time RAW and LogC to Rec. 709 color space conversions.
Automate your media management
Gain more time for creativity with new features that accelerate and simplify file-based workflows. With Dynamic Media Folders, non-creative media tasks such as transcoding, copying and consolidating can be automated in the background, without disrupting your editorial flow. Plus, you'll get peace of mind as Media Composer now fully manages AMA-linked media as reliably as it does with native Avid media.
Extend real-time production everywhere (Interplay Edition only)
Edit, share, tag, track and sync media and projects with everyone on your editing team-no matter where you are in the world. Media Composer Interplay Edition provides full Interplay Production, Interplay Central and Interplay Sphere support on Mac and PC, making remote cloud-based collaboration easy and cost-effective. What's more, you can edit just as efficiently as you would if you were all at the home facility, using the same tools and workflows you know and trust.
Gain total audio control
Forget wasting time mixing down audio levels by trial and error. With the new Master Audio Fader, you can insert RTAS plug-ins to tweak tones and optimize the overall program loudness, making broadcast regulation adherence quick and easy. You can also now make audio adjustments to any clip directly in the timeline-independently of any track-based automation-with the Clip Gain control.
Streamline the video workflow with Pro Tools users
Video Satellite is now included with Media Composer, enabling audio editors and mixers to play Avid HD and SD video sequences directly in sync with their Pro Tools session, while maintaining full system power. And since Video Satellite eliminates the need to render effects, transcode video or copy files for the audio team, you gain maximum post-production efficiency to turn around projects faster.
Get more value-and options
The industry's most trusted NLE is now more accessible than ever. If you need to collaborate with others around the world, Media Composer 7 Interplay Edition provides additional support for the Avid Interplay family of products.
