Intelligent shared storage evolves with Avid NEXIS
By Jim Bask
At the NAB show back in April, Avid (www.avid.com) introduced the next generation of its intelligent shared storage. Avid NEXIS represents an evolution in the company’s offerings, which date back to the mid-90s with its Unity MediaNetwork, and more recently with its Avid ISIS line of ‘infinitely scalable intelligent storage’ solutions.

At Alpha Dogs we do a lot of finishing work on everything from reality shows in HD to features in 4K. Our challenge has always been how to deliver the best quality in the most economically beneficial way to our clients.

I have attended Avid Connect, the world’s greatest gathering of professionals in the media industry, since its inception in 2014. Similarly to previous years, I was quick to save my spot for 2017. As the head of audio post at SpotBot, Inc., and a passionate music composer and engineer, I find this conference valuable for many reasons, but most of all for inspiration, knowledge, and networking.
