How to repair your Media Composer 3.0 software pricing forMedia Composer

 

AVID Xpress & Media Composer pricing

notes: We recently completed a full Media Composer 3.0 (upgrade) system for a college. In addition to upgrading the Media Composer software from 2.xxx to 3.0, it is necessary to upgrade the third-party plug-ins as well, which is an additional expense that you need to budget for (around $500).

Installation of 3.0 is very complex, including making a lot of modifications to Windows XP, and is definitely not for the weak-hearted. as the expression goes, "Do not attempt this at home."  Of course, when you order a system from VideoEditSystems, all of the installation & set-up is done for you by our engineers before the system leaves the door; and our RED DISK restore kit insures that any re-installation and set-up of your software is fully automated and as easy as popping in a DVD and going away for an hour.

Media Composer 3.0 officially did not support the older standard MOJO, older Avid RAID, nor the Digidesign control surface -- but we were able to make this hardware work together on our VES/Delta 1000 series 2 system. The Tech Support folks at Avid were surprised, yet pleased, that we were able to overcome the obstacles and achieve this level of success!

It took a lot of engineering and some redesign of our initial system, but those changes are now incorporated as standard on all of our machines.
