Video Toaster adds a lot of new features, including a new switcher, a new break out box, new editing capabilities, Internet streaming of both a live switch and a produced project, 3D capability with LightWave Express, NewTek’s Aura 2 video paint system, DV native support the Speed Razor timeline editor, the ability to use any camera without external syncing, and Cross Keyer technology that lets users paint right in the vectorscope window. The NTSC version of Video Toaster 2 is scheduled to ship on July 31, 2001, with a suggested retail price of $4,995.
