Avid NewsCutter Effects - In broadcast news, editing speed and efficiency are the priority. That's why Avid developed the NewsCutter Effects system. Combining Avid's famous user interface with several additional enhancements makes the NewsCutter Effects system an incredibly fast and smooth nonlinear editor. With support up to 50Mbit DV* or MPEG* formats, as well as extensive I/O capability, the NewsCutter Effects system fits easily into most news production facilities. Yet what has made it the standard for nonlinear news editing is that we didn't forget about creativity. That's why the NewsCutter Effects system includes a full set of both real-time and rendered effects and all of Avid's incredible editing functionality.
Avid NewsCutter XP - The NewsCutter XP system includes a wealth of visual effects and audio tools that let you create a distinctive look, or give the story more impact, even when time is short. Targeted for the journalist-editor and offering many of the same editing features as the Effects model, the NewsCutter XP system supports DV25 single stream and features fast rendered effects and an IEEE1394 interface. This software-based NewsCutter system is fast, easy to use, affordable and complements the news production process to get your content to air or to the Web faster.
NewsCutter Effects comes with either dual stream DV25+DV50* or IMX** (50Mbit MPEG I-frame), has full component, composite, and audio I/O, SDI and SDTI optional*.
NewsCutter XP, expected to be available in Q4 2000, comes with single stream DV25 support and an IEEE1394 interface.
