Message: [QUOTE="Shamiso, post: 84043, member: 160"] Avid is finally dragging their ancient software into the future with AI tricks for NAMM. The audio giant plans to show off shiny new toys at booth 15102 during the 2026 convention. They claim the main goal involves tackling demands for three specific areas: immersive sound, automation utilizing machine learning, and better gear connectivity. Chief Product Officer Kenna Hilburn suggested that artists need workflows that match their creative speed without technical friction. Pro Tools allegedly handles Dolby Atmos, Sony’s 360 Reality Audio, and UWA Audio Vivid natively. Live sound engineers using Venue consoles get compatibility with FLUX SPAT and d&b Soundscape rigs. The S6L system gains high-density Dante capabilities, increasing bandwidth for massive channel counts. Fresh hardware previews highlight the E6LX engines and VENUE 8.1 software. Machine learning features are creeping into everything. Pro Tools grabs Speech-to-Text analysis and macros from SoundFlow, while Sibelius adds automated chord symbol generation. Music creators can expect MIDI Polyphonic Expression support, a fresh MIDI Editing Mode, and Splice integration. Notation nerds finally get a Dark Theme and cross-staff beaming in the upcoming version. A weird modular setup called Nu·Studio makes its debut for portable immersive production. It houses the S6 control surface and room calibration tech. Famous knob-twiddlers like Andrew Scheps, Young Guru, Josh Gudwin, and Leandro “Dro” Hidalgo will hang out at the stand to discuss their process. [/QUOTE]
