Awesome Picture Quality
Pan it, zoom it, or manipulate colors - Edition offers the ultimate in quality. All the built-in digital video effects deliver user-configurable sub-pixel image processing. The result is superb picture quality that no other editing tool offers. You can correct colors with confidence - Edition includes powerful adjustment tools with RGB gamma, gain, equalize, luminance, saturation and hue controls for getting the picture right.

Export to MPEG - Burn to CD/DVD
Edition gives you the most flexible way to deliver your project with fast MPEG-2 encoding and the ability to go straight to CD or DVD for distributing work in a digital form to any customer. Sure you can print to tape, but delivery on disc is the most convenient way to deliver your work.

Background Processing
Unlike other systems, Edition is truly multi-tasking - you don\\t have to stop your work just because you have applied effects that need rendering. You can select and play clips, drag and drop effects, create titles, play the timeline -all while effects are processed in the background. Edition squeezes every ounce of your computer\\s speed with dual processor support and Intel Pentium 4 optimizations to finalize your project as quickly as you work.

Advanced Editing
Complex effects can make managing a timeline a chore, but Edition offers Containers that let you collapse tracks into one easy to manage clip, with a dedicated interface for editing multiple tracks. Edition also offers nesting of sequences that gives you a quick way to reuse common elements. You can finish your project with confidence with a fully featured voice-over recording control for narration and multi-track audio mix automation.

Stability
Edition offers the ultimate in security. With its unique InstantSave technology, your work is always in a saved state, which means you will never lose valuable work in the event of a system failure. No other editing system gives you this much peace of mind.
