Enabling your team and clients to review your edits in real time is not just helpful, it’s essential in today's fast-paced media environment. By leveraging AWS, Avid Media Composer can run in a fully virtualised cloud setup, integrated with a virtualised version of ClearView Flex (aka VFlex). This cloud-based approach replaces traditional physical review hardware with a scalable, virtualised solution that delivers the  same low latency, high performance, and robust security.

Why Switch to Virtualised Reviews?

Streamlined Collaboration:
Avid is renowned for its robust video editing capabilities. Yet, the traditional workflow often requires physical hardware to capture and share your work. The virtualised version of ClearView Flex (VFlex) allows you to stream your edits in real time over the cloud—eliminating the need for dedicated hardware and streamlining your creative workflow.

Confidence Monitoring from the Cloud:
VFlex enables your Avid on Demand session with real-time monitoring of video and audio signals to ensure they are recorded, processed, and output correctly. It allows editors and post-production professionals to maintain the intended quality and integrity of the media throughout the production process

Instant Feedback:
VFlex allows you to see your edits as they happen, enabling faster decision-making and more agile revisions. This real-time review makes it possible to  catch issues immediately, ensuring that every cut, transition, and effect is as desired and meets the highest quality standards.

Cloud-Powered Efficiency:
With Avid Media Composer in the cloud you are liberated from the constraints of physical infrastructure. Virtualizing your editing and review processes means that resources can be easily scaled on demand, adapting effortlessly to fluctuating workloads. Additionally, remote teams—editors, directors, or clients—can participate in the live review process from anywhere, ensuring cohesive collaboration regardless of location.
