Now that Avid have pulled the plug what are our options for alternatives to DS?
We're looking at Smoke and think it's a pretty compelling solution. I've heard it's clunkier and slower to work on than DS but that the toolset is impressive. And the fact that you don't have to go in and out of several pieces of software is appealing to me. The new Mac Pros aren't yet out and it may take some time before the software is ready to work with them but I expect I'll continue to run my existing DS for a few more years in tandem with whatever new system we decide on.
Does anyone else have any pros and cons re Smoke?
And what about alternatives? What are people looking at?
