Avid Xpress Pro for Windows and Macintosh (Visual QuickPro Guide)
In this article, CreativeCOW.net contributing editor Josh Martin reviews Avid Xpress Pro for Windows and Macintosh (Visual QuickPro Guide) by James Monohan and published by Peachpit Press, 712 pages, Published 2003, Copyright 2004, ISBN: 0321145976. Josh explains why the sub-title, Visual QuickPro Guide works so well with this book, "Coming into this review, I had absolutely no AVID experience. I had done some very minor non-linear editing in Adobe Premiere, but that's where my "knowledge base" ended. I'm happy to report that thanks largely in part to James Monohan's book, I am happily editing on our AVID setup...."

Using Avid Xpress Pro and Mojo by Bob Donlon
Creative Cow's Bob Donlon tears open Avid Xpress Pro and Mojo in this in-depth report. Bob explores Xpress Pro's uncompressed editing options, multi-cam capabilities, the new "DNA" (digital nonlinear accelerator) hardware capabilities found in Mojo and the five streams of realtime available for users working in DV25. Bob also gives readers a look at configuring the system for maximum performance and concludes that the Xpress Pro / Mojo combination is a powerful combination worthy of a 4 Cow rating.

Avid Xpress Pro: 15:1s to DV 25 411
Offline editing started as a way to save disk space when hard drive-based storage carried a considerable premium. These days, although fast hard drives are not very expensive, there are still good reasons to use an offline editing workflow, provided certain conditions are met. Perhaps the most common situation is when so many tapes are involved that you simply don't want to devote so much of your storage to a project that will ultimately be cut to a mere fraction of the sources captured. Another reason is the use of a laptop for mobile editing in the field. A laptop's hard drive does not provide the needed bandwidth or capacity to edit more than a few hours of footage in the field if needed.

Boris Continuum Complete AVX 5: Unleash Your Avid!
Emmy Award-winning editor Vivek Narayan takes a closer look at the latest version of Boris Continuum Complete, a comprehensive set of filters and effects for leading NLEs as well as After Effects. Although it works largely the same in all hosts, Vik digs deepest into BCC operating inside Avid. He finds that the 180 filters here more than give others a run for their money: it beats out some of the industry's favorites. See why he calls buying BCC AVX 5 "a no-brainer."

Avid rolls out lower-priced Media Composer
When most people think of Avid, low cost is not a term likely to be used in connection with the venerable leader in broadcast and film editing systems. But with today's announcements, Avid has both increased their lead in the education sector and has radically dropped the price of its flagship Media Composer software. In this article, Creative COW's Ron Lindeboom explores why we find this great news for both existing Avid customers and those who thought that they could never afford an Avid.
