Avid Technology Recent Developments
In August 2021, Avid made a major update on the Avid EUCON Ethernet protocol that powers Avid control surfaces used in Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Cubase, Nuendo, and other digital audio workstations (DAW), from the free Avid Control app to the flagship Avid S6. Now, thanks to EUCON 2021.6, audio creators can customize everything from knob layouts for all their favorite plugins to the metering information displayed in the Avid Control app. These features offer unparalleled tactile control and visual feedback over all aspects of a mix. This version of EUCON includes a highly requested feature that enables users of any EUCON-enabled DAW to customize how they interact with all plugins from the control surface to suit their specific workflows and projects. Users can set up custom knob layouts for their preferred plugins, anyway they want, to ensure that the most-used plugin parameters are always right where they want them located, significantly speeding up their mixing workflows.
In January 2021, introduced immediate availability of MediaCentral | Stream, an agnostic and software-only solution that enables the ingest of incoming IP streams for television news and remote live TV production scenarios in both on-premises and cloud-based production workflows.
