It's almost here - New Systems
from Avid marketing to my email box - "If you're in the area November 4–7, drop by booth #1018 and say "hi"—you won't want to miss what we'll have in store..." I don't know about you, but this smells to me like the release of whatever TDM systems they have been growing in their darkrooms. AES, not NAMM, is typically where Digidesign released their newest systems. So now we have a possible date...

Not happening.

Re: It's almost here - New Systems
The only stuff they can announce are a new version of Protools, some TDM card addon for the HD Native line, and/or EuCon integration fun for Protools all the current line of controllers/consoles in their lineup.
Personally I think it's the software and EuCon stuff. They've had two years to think about this, so it ought to be big. Let's hope it's not buggy, or this might get flushed down the toilet. |

Studiojimi, if you had knowledge that would affect a purchase of thousands of dollars from my friends and myself, even a strong hunch, then yes, I would find that info helpful. That is why Mac Rumors and other sites are valuable. I don't think Avid would send such info as a general email unless they wanted to stir up interest in the fact that they are FINALLY at a trade show again. And I do feel better, thank you!

You are making assumptions that are not grounded in any fact.

Re: It's almost here - New Systems
I stated here awhile back and I'll state it again....the reason you did not find AVID at a few major tradeshows is that the entire family of companies were in the process of re-aligning themselves, merging their shipping into a single distribution center, and making ONE large, strong company of several lines. It wasn't because they were going away, sales were dying, etc.
As to new hardware---don't expect to see new TDM hardware, don't assume that's what it is. The HD Accel system that exists as it is right now is perfectly capable. BUT who knows, maybe I'm wrong.... |
Re: It's almost here - New Systems
if there is something big coming....
why do the BIG show off thing at AES.... we've all been waiting watching and holding fast you have our attention AVID don't put extra money into a pissing contest with other companies save the money and expense and just release it with better pricing for the thousands of loyal customers waiting for something truly professional....this time. and certainly not another bug filled software release that many of us buy but don't use with love and enlightenment, studiojimi |
Re: It's almost here - New Systems
