What’s new in Avid Media Composer 2024.10?

IT’S FINALLY HERE!!!

More than anything I am so happy that the fixed Avid Titler has now arrived! I feel like there should be an internationally observed holiday to mark the occasion! Note that I do not say this as a slight on Avid. I KNOW how hard they have been working behind the scenes for years to get this fixed. I celebrate that we can now begin to put this issue behind us and let the Avid development team focus on exciting new features and customer support.
