Their DS product did this. Effects parameters can be changed with the knobs on the MC Color. I do like the Symphony jog/shuttle with the balls and wheels, that's one that wasn't in the DS. But it is pretty nice being able to adjust position/size etc. with knobs

There's something similar in their defunct DS software that they already have patents for. I don't think that's what's stopping them.[quote user="switthaus"] [quote user="smrpix"]I know a number of patent attornies and responsible CEOs who may disagree with you.[/quote] Indeed. If you look at Resolve and FCPX, they

[quote user="French_Editor"] I agree you that Avid is "close to Be the Best" but not for the same reason. except for the undo in bin level, everything you are asking for already exist. for exemple you can sync all your tracks and won't need to select or unselect tracks.

I just hope some of the development team at Avid can get a play with Resolve lite, you know the free software from BlackMagic. To see what a free colour corrector can offer

I'm sure this has been asked many times already, but I'll ask again to bump it to the top. Can we please get a pre-blur and shrink/grow matte in Spectramatte? These are basic features that should have been implemented long ago. Also, if you're feeling generous, could you please integrate trackable garbage mattes? Maybe a color wheel in the

Yes, you could zoom and pan the timeline in DS with x and z keys. The mini timeline that allowed you to navigate, was called the overview area, a really handy feature.
