Avid Artist | DNxIO Now Shipping To Meet the Growing Demands of High-Res Content Production 23 September 2015
Avid (Nasdaq: AVID) today announced that Avid Artist | DNxIO, a hardware interface designed to accelerate high-resolution video production, is now shipping, and that customers can save more than 20% when they trade in select systems between now and September 30. Available standalone or bundled with Avid Media Composer , Avid Artist | DNxIO delivers best-in-class high-res video ingest, editing, monitoring, and output, giving video professionals the flexible, open, and integrated creative tools they need to efficiently create the highest-quality media.
Built on the Avid MediaCentral Platform, Avid Artist | DNxIO is compatible with Avid Artist Suite solutions and many third-party creative tools, including Blackmagic Resolve, Apple Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe After Effects and more. It includes hardware by Blackmagic Design, a new IO Connectivity Partner for the MediaCentral Platform.
Between now and September 30, customers can save more than 20% on Avid Artist | DNxIO when they trade in Avid Nitris DX or Avid Mojo DX, or selected Open IO hardware from AJA, Blackmagic Design, Matrox and MOTU.
Avid Artist | DNxIO enables video professionals to capture, monitor and output Ultra HD, 2K and 4K media, as well as HD and SD formats. Its flexible form factor fits in standard 19-inch equipment racks for easy integration in equipment rooms, and it's quiet enough to place on the desk of an edit bay. The HD display allows editors to monitor media that is being ingested into and outputted from the system, even when the software is not running. A host of connections delivers fast switching among a range of input devices and sources for capture, and among a range of monitors and output devices. Hands-on controls allow users to quickly select video, audio, and timecode inputs as well as deck control.
Avid Artist | DNxIO is bundled with the Fusion Connect plugin for Media Composer giving users access to the best-of-breed node-based effects compositing tool from within the Media Composer user interface. Onboard DNxHR encoding for capture workflows will be enabled on DNxIO via a future no-cost firmware update. Updated software for supported creative editorial applications will be required to take advantage of this capability.
