Yes AVID has finally added Monterey Support 12.1 as well as M1 Support in AVID Media Composer. Of course M1 support is only through emulation, it is not a native app. Amazing how Black Magic Designs and Adobe have been able to release true M1 support so much more quickly. And getting rid of Dongle support on Mac doesn’t seem like a good idea either.
You would think it would be so much easier at this point, but AVID is still so slow to respond. I mean there won’t be Intel Macs at all soon. Come on AVID, get on the ball. I know they are always slow with updates, but come on. And yes I know that AVID has to have systems that work on so many systems to keep going, but if you get a new license you only get recent versions anyway.
Honestly even with all the recent updated whenever I get on AVID I feel like I have stepped into the past and not in a good way. Even getting footage from DaVinci Resolve is not as simple as it is with Premiere. I know backwards compatibility, but AVID users really need to try out Premiere Pro with Productions and a single compression format (like ProRES) and see how well Premiere runs.
