New Features Tour 5.0
The video clips contained in the New Features Tour include an audio narration. If you’re viewing these clips on an
Avid|DS workstation, you may need to connect headphones or a second set of speakers to your workstation's audio
jack to hear the narration. Note that you must use the on-board Audio PCI card connectors instead of the Merging
audio card.

To view the PDF files in the documentation library, you must upgrade to Acrobat Reader 5.0. The Adobe Acrobat
install program is available on the Avid|DS software CD in the \acrobat folder.
