Speed through integration: Avid Nitris DX effects architecture
The new Avid Nitris DX architecture tightly connects the host workstation and PCI express I/O hardware into a single high-bandwidth, high-performance effects engine. The architecture supports the latest generation of HD codecs, including HDV, XDCAM-HD, AVC-I, and Avid DNxHD.

News editing done right
Fast, flexible editing and voiceover tools, native P2 and XDCAM support, and integrated media management help you stay relaxed and focused on telling the best story - you can even begin editing before the capture is finished. And Avid's Open Timeline lets you juggle formats and ideas with real-time editing and playback of multiple SD and HD resolutions.

Seamless integration into any workflow
Seamless integration with selected newsroom automation systems and play-out servers get the story on air in the shortest possible time. Native integration of P2, XDCAM-HD, and HDV formats lets you focus on editing, not getting data into and out of the system. Need to get your story out to the Web? Sorensen Squeeze is included for fast multi-format output.
