Avid unveils Symphony Nitris as 'new standard' in HD finishing

Avid Technology unveiled the Symphony Nitris system as the new standard in non-linear SD and HD finishing at NAB.
Symphony Nitris offers guaranteed real-time editing and effects for multi-stream 10-bit HD and SD media, as well as HD Total Conform with the industry-standard Avid Media Composer product family.
Building on one of the top online finishing systems used in video and film post production, the Avid Symphony Nitris system brings together the real-time performance of the Nitris Digital Nonlinear Accelerator™ (Avid DNA) hardware with the creative and corrective tools, and multi-format mastering and versioning capabilities, of the Avid Symphony software.
The Avid Symphony Nitris system offers a user interface that is instantly familiar to legions of trained Avid editors, and extends that interface across the entire workflow of any film or video production using Avid systems – from concept to completion.
Avid Symphony Nitris system highlights include: HD total conform; real-time performance with the Nitris hardware; an expansive video and audio I/O for high-quality formats; an industry-leading corrective finishing toolset; Universal Mastering capabilities; and project collaboration through the Avid Unity MediaNetwork.
The Avid Symphony Nitris system, which comprises the Avid Symphony software and the Avid Nitris hardware, is qualified for HP xw8200 workstations.
The system is expected to ship in Q3 of this year, and will be available through Avid’s worldwide reseller channel.
