Pinnacle Avid Liquid v7.2

Avid Liquid’s powerful video editor integrates DVD authoring, surround sound audio processing and powerful visual effects.

Liquid features frame-accurate editing of HDV content. Liquid's real-time effects engine provides multiple streams of HDV, video monitoring with Liquid Pro and a smooth workflow for finishing in SD or back to HDV tape.

Liquid supports Avid Open Timeline. Liquid lets videographers edit DV, MPEG I-frame, MPEG IBP, uncompressed, Windows Media, DIVX and MPEG-4 in SD as well as HDV.

Edit, create titles and effects and then dive into a DVD authoring toolset that lets users define the interactivity, create menus, add a Dolby Digital 5.1 surround mix and then burn a finished DVD.

Avid Liquid offers a fully integrated video toolset: editing, audio, DVD authoring and effects in one application.

Native HDV transfer from camera to timeline via IEEE-1394. Frame accurate editing of your HDV 720p or 1080i material. Add any of the Liquid real-time effects to up to four streams of HDV material. Render your effects as needed to MPEG IBP. Preview your HDV timeline on your computer monitor. Easy output back to HDV tape or downconvert to standard definition for output to tape or DVD.

Liquid includes expanded native support for just about any SD and HD format (DV, MPEG-2 IBP, MPEG-2 I-Frame, DivX, Windows Media, MPEG-4, HDV and even uncompressed) in the same timeline. This eliminates the need for untimely and damaging transcoding for HDV output and DVD authoring.

Pinnacle Liquid offers an incredible number of key-frameable, real-time SD and HD compositing effects. Liquid uses the power of the CPU and GPU to provide multiple streams of real-time effects including 2D, true 3D, advanced color correction and chroma/luma key.

Liquid features the Liquid CX Color Correction with both secondary and selective color correction, Dynamic Slow Motion and a host of other resolution independent high precision, sub-pixel software effects.

Create wizard-based DVD/VCD/SVCD with motion menus, motion buttons and automatic links using the same intuitive easy to use interface directly from the Liquid timeline. Over 40 templates are provided to get you started. Furthermore, Liquid's native MPEG-2 IBP editing eliminates the need for time-consuming renders at the output stage.

Advanced real-time audio mixer and full 5.1 surround sound mixing and VST plug-in support with send busses, audio TimeWarp and much more.

Powerful editing tool for demanding multi-camera projects. Liquid supports 16 simultaneous cameras with real-time camera angle selection.

With Liquid, you can continue to drive your creativity while you are rendering high quality format and resolution independent SD and HD output transparently in the background.

Using Liquid Pro, editors can capture DV and HDV via IEEE-1394 or editors requiring analog capture or output can choose Liquid Pro which offers composite, S-video and component video I/O. For audio I/O, choose from stereo or S/PDIF as well as 6-channel surround sound monitoring.Minimum System RequirementsFor DV and MPEG-2 IBP SD Editing
