Re: Avid MTRX 2 ?
I think ‘component availability’ which never used to come up at all, is the new inarguable/uncheckable excuse for all sorts of chicanery. While true in some cases, i think that is just a new tool in the PR toolbox.

Eventually there is no need to be concerned about AX64 lifespan at this stage. It is a fantastic box with lots of life ahead of it. With all of the connections already available to AX64, would the digilink even be of interest?

That’s sad for AVID, if they can’t live with a little lower margin because of a trade in deal they eventually end up earning exactly $0,- from the smarter current MTRX customer base.

Re: Avid MTRX 2 ?
So perhaps -perhaps- the MTRX II might have an outdated faceplate even before the day it’s in stock at resellers. Oops

Re: Avid MTRX 2 ?
Blaming missing expectations due to audio hardware sales is quite a twist... Especially after discontinuing a majority of their audio hardware.
Whoever buys them will keep the brand so I don't think there's much of an issue with the MTRX II. Just can't think of any strong contenders for the purchase unless it goes to something awful like Bain.

Re: Avid MTRX 2 ?
Decades of just incompetent senior management comes home to roost. I don't imagine this will be a pretty sale, and I can't think of anybody where it really makes sense to acquire. I'd be surprised if any IB is interested unless an absolute fire sale but even then it's a millstone to have to sort out.. and Blum Capital could not sort out Avid in the past (edit).. and I forgot about Impactive Capital, who I think at least acquired their holdings in 2019/2020 so won't be hurting as much as Blum did. Still I can imagine they have tired of Avid. Innovative product driven companies like Blackmagic, UAD, etc. have already on the path of rolling their own software. Raising the money to do an acquisition is probably just not appealing especially in a down market. And Avid has outsourced so much of it's software development... not buying a strong development team with the product has got to be a huge turn off.
