VEGAS Pro Reviews

Sony Vegas Pro is a very useful program that we often need to use in our projects, as it can be used to edit video clips, and the program is characterized by the fact that it can create or modify videos in very high quality up to 4k and 2k.
The program is characterized by an easy, comfortable and coordinated interface in terms of the tools that are used compared to other editing programs, and Sony Vegas contains a wide range of effects that make a simple video a professional work.
One of the beautiful features in it is the availability of video editing tools and audio editing tools in one program, and this is great for those who want high resolution in the image and sound at the same time.
Vegas is characterized by the ease of using some tools and commands in the editing and video editing operations, such as the processes of dividing events and restoring deleted parts, the ease of using the drag and drop method on the same track or from one track to another, as well as the ease of accelerating and slowing down speeds.
One of the things that I used a lot in most of my videos is adding transitions and effects, the ability to draw masks, add 3D effects, cancel video shakes, provide multiple styles in writing, formatting and moving texts, and add motion blur.

One of the most common problems with Sony Vegas Pro and its recent decline in popularity is the delay in downloading new versions and new features, users are looking forward to new and powerful features to make their work easier in terms of the power of artificial intelligence to save time and effort

VEGAS Pro is considered by me to be one of the most complete video editors that currently exists. I liked the way that Sony Vegas allowed me to completely modify the audio tracks of my videos, I was able to modify the tracks, repeat them, integrate new audio tracks in the same video and also add special effects to each track individually, that it was fantastic. I also liked the wide variety of animations available in Sony Vegas, I can add animations to make the camera follow a specific object, add animations to objects so they move from one place to another and many more animations. I also like the way that Vegas Pro allows me to modify the video quality that my video will have when rendered, this allows me to modify the quality that I want to achieve.

The rendering process will take time depending on the computer you have, this is quite negative since the general consumption of Vegas Pro is quite high, which means that this video editor cannot be used on any computer, since the more objects and the more audio tracks added to a video, the consumption will be higher and it will affect the performance of the computer. Also, Vegas Pro is not available for mobile devices, so the only way to edit videos with this platform is to use it on your computer.

Vegas Pro is excellent for audio editing. A big window for multiple audio tracks makes it quite easy to work. The interface is user-friendly and the tools are awesome. The snapping tool provides great help to accurately place tracks. Likewise, the automatic crossfade gives so many different variations to combine the two audios. I particularly like the auto-ripple option that helps moving tracks and saves a lot of time. You can put markers and insert region, and then render the desired final audio. Batch-render is an excellent way to process multiple files at the same time. Vegas Pro is a must-have for a radio.

We recently upgraded from version 13 to 15 and faced trouble rendering singles files. The new version crashes frequently. Docking panels can be tricky sometimes. We had the Explorer Window undocked by mistake and spent a lot of time figuring out how to fix it.

It’s very flexible and easy to use.
It offers a powerful audio editing function.
Built-in effects are high-quality and suitable for professional use.

It’s a little bit expensive.
Sometimes it crashes while working on projects without clear reasons.
Adding more transitions would be great.

I use Vegas even before MAGIX bought it, the software is really great, and it helped me a lot when it was my only option a few years ago, when my computer wasn't that great. Vegas is the perfect choice for rookies on video edition, you can learn the basics on aspect ratios, cut-and-paste fragments of video, resolutions, audio parameters, etc. The tools can be pretty advanced and useful if you know how to use them, there are solutions for everything related to video edition on Vegas, you can even do some animation and automated effects. The rendering times are pretty great, even on low-end computers.

It's not the best for professional use and commercial projects, it can be kind of clunky and the learning curve is slow and very frustrating. Templates for text and cards on video feels really outdated. Animation and automation tools are not the best, while they work, they require, in fact, a lot of hard work to function properly. The prices for it are really high.

- Easy to use
- Has motion tracking
- Supports the majority of pro video formats
- You can edit audio

Can be slow at times, mostly when rendering.

Quite easy to use, great interface, lot's of effect even on stock, Capable of using green screen effect

Sometimes crash, it needs quite a lots of RAM.

I have been using Vegas since it was Vegas 10. It has consistently gotten better with each successive generation. It converts and renders all the video that I need it to.

Importing live video is somewhat of an issue. It could integrate with daw software better as well. Magix should look at a subscription-based service instead of having to buy outright for upgrades.

It was easy to use from purchase with all the templates at hand. The visual layout isn't crowded and the tools for editing are understandable from the get go.

Sometimes crashes for a laptop edit with big size files of videos but the best thing is it saves from the last point of editing.

I like how easy is to use the timeline and its features with great user interface.

Does not have as many features/is not as powerful as Adobe Premiere
