The mainstay of Avid workflows is transcoding efficiency, bin locking, and project sharing.
Scale Logic shared storage with Bin Locking is as versatile and efficient as Avid is in handling formats of any resolution and projects of any size. This allows incredibly high-performing multi-stream and multi-cam editing that reduces storage administrative tasks for your creative team.
The included Scale Logic Media Browser’s powerful search, tag and index features make working with large data sets a breeze. Additional transcoding and data movement tools simplify data ingest and archive to LTO, additional disk, or to cloud storage.
At the heart of any Scale Logic offering is data resiliency. Avid teams benefit from unlimited snapshots that allow editors to retrieve deleted files or recover quickly from human mistakes; and administrators can create disaster recovery and business continuity plans to recover from virus or ransomware attacks in a snap.
With its long history and in-depth knowledge of Avid workflows, Scale Logic seamlessly supports everything within the Avid Media Composer environment.
This includes using Scale Logic shared storage for additional capacity for MXF files for the workflow. Camera RAW is huge in size, so using Scale Logic storage for the landing spot for these important files makes the most sense from a cost-savings perspective. High-speed storage is fast enough for Camera RAW to be transcoded in place for pre-edit, and transcoded media for Avid editing can remain on the Scale Logic storage for edit in place. Upon job completion, you have the option to move the content from online to nearline storage, LTO or any private or public S3-compliant cloud or tape with Scale Logic integration tools.
