Only Avid Xpress Pro software allows you to combine video and film formats and resolutions in their native form, on the same timeline, in real time. Learn more.

Equally powerful on Mac and PC.

Use the most powerful machine you can find, on the platform of your choice. With both platforms included in every box, you can work on one platform at work, another on the road any way you need it, no problem. Change your platform later? Just take the software with you! Learn more.
