Overview

Powerful video production, audio editing & disc authoring.

For 20 years, VEGAS Pro has stood for fast, powerful, flexible video production. The latest version comes loaded with powerful new video editing features to help you work faster, smarter, and more creatively. It delivers on every level, with more flexibility, more power, and more professional features. The modern user interface delivers a completely customizable experience that provides the ultimate in flexibility. Designed to directly support your preferred workflow, these UI innovations enhance the fast, organic timeline-editing workflow that VEGAS Pro invented.

Video Editing:

HDR color support
With full support for High Dynamic Range (HDR) color now included with VEGAS Pro 16, you can work with video footage from the latest cameras, preview your work on an HDR reference monitor and deliver stunning-quality HDR work.

Video Stabilization
Turn shaky footage into smooth, pro quality video. The video stabalization engine has been rebuilt on our own from the ground up with state-of-the-art technology, resulting in a feature that is easy to use and one that gets you smooth results every time.

Motion tracking
Sophisticated masking and motion tracking tools let you follow moving objects precisely. You can then easily "pin" text and video to them. You can also apply color grading, special effects, and other video filters that follow tracked objects as they move through the scene.

360° editing
VEGAS Pro 16 includes 360º templates for some of the most popular cameras. Set your project up as a 360 project, stitch dual fisheye files seamlessly, preview your file with complete 360 control, apply 360 filters, and deliver as complete 360 videos. Give your viewers a completely immersive experience with 360 video.

Improved High DPI scaling
As more and more elements of VEGAS Pro become compatible with High DPI monitors, you can change to High DPI mode to take advantage of an even crisper, clearer user interface on your High DPI monitor.

Automatic subtitle creation from timeline regions or a file
Speech from a video that has been transcribed and entered as named regions in your project, a text file, or a spreadsheet can be used to instantly create a subtitle track. Subtitle positions can be automatically synced to project audio events and can be edited for fine tuning.

Add missing stream
Sometimes your project contains either the video or audio portion of a video clip on the timeline and you decide that you want the other portion too. This feature instantly finds the missing portion, creates an event for it and synchronizes it to the existing portion.

Multi-camera Editing
Edit multi-camera productions intuitively and efficiently with VEGAS Pro. Switch between a virtually unlimited number of video sources with a keyboard command or a click of your mouse. Easily transform a multicam track into an individual event for detailed editing.

360° video stabilization
The new OFX plug-in for stabilizing 360° videos allows you to save shaky 360° shots with just a few clicks. It is perfectly integrated into the 360° editing workflow, allowing you to quickly achieve the desired result.

Audio Editing:

Complete multitrack audio environment
VEGAS Pro includes powerful audio recording and editing tools for the most demanding productions. Record audio in a multitrack environment with input buses, professional metering, punch-in recording, unlimited tracks and more. Automate your audio mixes with real-time envelope automation recording, join audio recordings with a variety of automatic crossfade types and create mixes with assignable effects. No other NLE provides a digital audio workstation feature set as robust as the tools in VEGAS Pro.

Surround sound encoding & decoding
Create 5.1 surround mixes directly within VEGAS Pro 16. Use the panner to automate tracks and buses and produce breathtaking soundtracks for DVDs and Blu-ray Discs. Apply surround effects to track level or directly to the sum. This way you can exercise full control over your mix. To finish, export your project for encoding into Surround format. In addition, VEGAS DVD Architect software imports AC-3 files for multichannel 5.1 DVD and Blu-ray Disc creation.

Extensive audio effects
VEGAS Pro supports standard VST interfaces. Apply effects to individual objects, events on a track and buses. Choose from more than 40 included signal and effects processing tools and automate effects with envelope control in real time, including the brand new MAGIX eFX professional audio plug-in collection. Wave Hammer Compression, EQ, and noise gate as well as reverb, chorus and delay are all included. Surround effects for the master bus include EQ, dither and Wave Hammer Surround compression tools.

Input buses
Record, monitor, and mix audio from external devices via input buses to take advantage of your hardware compressors, reverb units, echo boxes, and other outboard equipment. Use the real-time rendering option to mix audio from external audio devices into your final render.

Loudness meters
Optimize your mixes to maximize audio dynamic range. Create compliant renders for any signal path. This helps you achieve the perfect auditory experience for viewers.

Envelope automation recording
Record track envelope and keyframe parameters in real time with a mouse or external control surface hardware. Choose between touch and latch record modes and utilize automatic post-record keyframe thinning. Automation parameter control is available for both stereo and surround tracks and buses, as well as for video tracks.

Workflow and UI Features:

Dynamic storyboard and timeline interaction
The dynamic storyboard workflow might just change the way you edit from now on. Quickly assemble rough cuts and alternate versions in an uncomplicated storyboard environment. Changes made to the main storyboard are reflected instantaneously in the timeline. In reverse, edits on the timeline can be synchronized to the storyboard with only one click, or automatically. Additional storyboards can also be created and used for experimental edits, alternate sequencing, or to keep track of different sections within your video.

Project media hover scrub
Hover scrubbing project media thumbnails gives you a quick way to identify the important points in your video files before you add them to your timeline. Simply move the mouse over a thumbnail in the Project Media window and scrub through the video to find a specific frame.

Project media in/out points
With the ability to place the hover scrub cursor at an exact frame within the Project Media thumbnail, you can now create an In or Out point at that location. When the file is added to the project, the resulting event will then automatically be trimmed down to these defined in/out points. You can set In and Out points for any type of media in your project.

Resizable project media thumbnails
Project media thumbnails can now be enlarged so you can see more detail and achieve finer hover scrub motion. You now see a more accurate location of specific video frames and can edit with much finer hover scrubbing and more accurate in/out marking.

Preview multiple selected project media files
It's now possible to select more than one media file in the Project Media window and preview each file, one after the other, in one continuous operation. This is great when you are working with storyboards because you will quickly be able to preview the entire storyboard in sequence.
