Avid Xpress DV 3.5 for Mac OS X
Tewksbury Titan Rolls Out the Big Guns

A few months ago we took a close-up look at Avid Xpress DV 3.0 for the PC. The new version received a positive review from Digital Media Net, where I highly recommended the software and mentioned how nice it is to have your own personal Avid system. Now, Avid Xpress DV version 3.5 ($1699 standard, $2499 for Power Pack) takes that concept a step further, with more sophisticated color correction controls and an interface that's the closest thing to a Media Composer and Symphony we've seen this side of the $70,000 mark. Best of all, the update now works with both Mac OS X and Windows XP, and versions for each platform are included in the same box. Here's our review.
