Avid Media Composer 5.5 Academic Edition with Mojo DX (Mac/Win) is a professional hardware/software nonlinear editing system that provides a comprehensive and powerful set of creative editing tools for even the most challenging film or video production. Long a staple of the motion picture industry, this fast, versatile software offers real-time HD editing, file-based workflows, cutting-edge features, and media management you can count on.
Media Composer 5.5 software tightly integrates Mojo DX video hardware with your host computer's CPU and GPU, giving you a high-bandwidth effects engine that delivers without compromise, no matter what formats and codecs you use. Experience faster editing – plus digital capture, monitoring, and output – with Media Composer 5.5 & Mojo DX. The hardware supplies HD-SDI input/output, HDMI output for monitoring, as well as reference sync input for timecode.
Media Composer 5.5 continues to natively support RED and QuickTime formats (including Apple ProRes and .mov files captured by Canon's DSLRs), and Canon's 4:2:2 MPEG-2 codec. There's also direct AVCHD import and expanded support for Matrox MXO2 Mini external monitoring. You can edit practically any tapeless format instantly, without the need for transcoding, and edit mixed resolutions and formats on the same timeline.
There's a huge collection of built-in 2D and 3D effects and transitions as well as tools for motion tracking, keying, compositing, title creation, color correction, and editing & mixing audio. With Media Composer 5.5 you can execute effects, transitions, and color correction with more direct control. Introduced for this version is the ability to manipulate transitions in the timeline directly with the expanded Smart Tool.
Also expanded is support for external hardware such as I/O devices from Avid and other manufacturers, as well as control surfaces to help you edit more comfortably and efficiently.
Ideal for offline, file-based, and mobile editing, Media Composer 5.5 is used for editing films, TV programs, short-form videos, and pretty much any other media you can come up with. Mac or PC, in the studio or in the field – edit where you want and how you want, with the most powerful editing system around.
