Person segmentation allows editors to quickly and easily grab and adjust individuals in a scene without tedious manual masking.

AudioDirector 11 now offers even more flexibility and control, empowering users to balance and remove vocals, de-reverb, fix audio ducking, scrub audio and perform 5.1 encoding. ColorDirector 9 rounds out the collection with more precise color controls including a new effects tab, an easy to use green screen creation tool, precision color correct with waveform scope, motion tracking for selection masks and more.
