Software For Your PCSoftware, which you so long searched!

So, its finally November 22nd, release day for Avids newest NLE to hit the shelves, Avid Liquid 7. While its new for Avid, its the latest version of a product thats been very popular for a long time most recently with Pinnacle, and before that FAST. But with new features like native HDV, thousands of realtime effects and its powerful background rendering,
this is a powerful editing application that is sure to turn heads in this market. But what really makes Liquid different is that everything you need editing, surround audio, effects, music creation, DVD is in one application. Not a suite of five or six programs one application.
For this review, I worked with the final beta release of Avid Liquid 7
exactly the same version that theyll be burning to disks ready for shipping on the 22nd of November.
Avid Liquid 7 comes in two versions: a software only version, and the Pro version with the same software plus a breakout box. The breakout box on the Pro version adds analog and digital video and audio I/O, including the ability to monitor Liquids 5.1
surround audio mixing. It also adds HDV/SD preview to an external monitor.
Because I do not currently have the Pro version, my review will concentrate on the software version of the product.
I will start by telling you a little about myself. I am the senior editor for RDS, Le Rseau des Sports, an allFrench sports network based in Montral. I have used Liquid
there for almost 3 years now. For this review I am running this software on a fairly slow computer. I have an Athlon XP 2400+ 1 gig of DDR 266 ram, a slow system drive, and a 7200 rpm video ATA drive. My video card is an ATI AIW 9600XT with 128mb of ram. Not the fastest system on the block. Actually its my family PC! Apart from a slowdown for HDV (see below)
Liquid performed quite admirably on my system.
Now seems like a good time to talk a little about some of the technology that Avid has brought over from their acquisition of Pinnacle. I dont want this info buried in the middle of this review, so here we go. One of the biggest features, in my opinion is background rendering. Mean anything to you??? Basically,
you set up your effects and transitions, then go on working. Liquid renders all of your effects in the background.
Thats really cool you say, well, youd be right. But even more than that, they take advantage of your GPU and let the video card handle some of the effects. The GPU effects are shown in realtime, but are rendered in the background for output.
And to take advantage of this technology, dont go running out to the local PC store to drop a grand on a big fancy NvidiaFX card, nope, Avid recommends using an ATI gaming card. What you say, thats right. Pick up a card like an ATI x800XL, or something of the type and you are good to go.
Did you know that Liquid handles HDV natively??? I didnt think that
you did. Well it does. In fact, Liquid was the first to support native HDV, well over a year ago. I have seen it with my own two eyes, on my system. Sure, my system was choking on it, but look at what I am using. Buy a solid workstation with a PCIe card and youll do just fine. With that same cheap video card I just talked about, you can get four streams of
1080i HDV with realtime effects, no problem. Check the Avid website for recommended systems, which are neatly broken into exactly the kind of work you need to do, whether DV, SD, or 720 or 1080 HDV.
