Digital Film Tools has announced that all of the company's Avid plug-in product offerings - Composite Suite Pro, PhotoCopy, Rays and zMatte - are now 64-bit and compatible with Media Composer and Symphony version 6.0 as well as NewsCutter version 10.0.

"Releasing 64-bit support for Media Composer v6, Symphony v6 and NewsCutter v10 is a no brainer for us," comments Marco Paolini, Founder and President, Digital Film Tools.
