Editing done right

  • Editing interface
    Edit faster with the most efficient, accurate, and flexible editing interface available. Work the way you want with the mouse, screen buttons or keyboard shortcuts, with full customization of screen and keyboard layouts to speed things up further.
  • Trimming tools
    Avid's powerful trimming tools set the standard for speed and flexibility. Trim transitions with the mouse, on-the-fly, or nudge frame-by-frame. "Slip" and "slide" clips quickly with a comprehensive two, four or six-frame display.
  • Script-based editing
    Take the work out of editing of scripted or transcript based productions. With ScriptSync, dailies are phonetically synced to the script automatically, so lining up dailies to the script takes minutes, not hours
  • Open Timeline
    Edit multiple SD and HD formats in real time, in the same timeline, without rendering or transcoding. Mix SD and HD, online and offline. Play any mix of resolutions in real time.
  • Media management
    Avid offers the most reliable and accurate media management available. Don't worry about losing media or render files; the software tracks them all. It even allows sequences to relink to multiple resolutions
  • Database management
    Create custom metadata fields to track your material the way you want. Use multi-level sift and sort to find information that goes far beyond the reach of OS-level searches.
