How Do I Renew My Avid Media Composer Perpetual License?

If you do not own an Avid Media Composer subscription or have a Perpetual license that has expired then you can choose from a new Ultimate subscription today.

The Ultimate subscription includes Media Composer editing software plus Avid Symphony for color correction, the PhraseFindand ScriptSync tools and support for network storage and collaborative workflows.

Do you have an Avid Media Composer Subscription License already?

The subscriptions can be easily renewed with these versions. The difference between a Subscription Renewal and a new subscription is that these will easily extend the term of your current subscription license for another year. You can add these at any time and Avid Account Manager will extend from your current expiration date.


What is the Difference between theG-RAID PROJECT 2 & G-RAID MIRROR?

G-RAID PROJECT 2

  • For Pro-Video workflows​
  • Ships in default RAID 0 – full capacity, full performance​
  • RAID 0 (Striping): Data is stored evenly across the number of disks in the array. This process is called disk striping and involves splitting data into blocks and writing it simultaneously/sequentially on multiple disks. It provides improved performance but no redundancy

G-RAID MIRROR

  • For Pro-Photo workflows​
  • Ships in default RAID 1 – full redundancy, half performance, half capacity​
  • RAID 1 (Mirroring): Data is duplicated and stored on each drive. This process is called mirroring, and it ensures you won’t lose your files if a drive fails. It provides redundancy but no performance gain
