There are now 3 different product names for the exact same product. If you bought a Ford Mustang yesterday, it is now a Volkswagen Polo. Magix has just rebranded their German made consumer video editor line up and stuck a different label on the box.
Movie Studio 18 Suite = Magix Movie Edit Pro 2021 Premium = Magix Video Deluxe Premium in Germany Movie Studio 18 Platinum = Magix Movie Edit Pro 2021 Plus = Magix Video Deluxe Plus in Germany Movie Studio 18 = Magix Movie Edit Pro 2021 = Magix Video Deluxe in Germany I have my own thoughts as to why this has happened, but I'll leave that for each individual to make their own conclusions as to the "why now?" The Vegas Movie Studio product line has been cancelled and retired - end of story - it's that simple. Vegas Movie Studio 17, Vegas Movie Studio 17 Platinum and Vegas Movie Studio 17 Suite Movie Studio 18, Movie Studio 18 Platinum and Movie Studio 18 Suite Magix Vegas Pro: get real, before the confusion starts and we (the senior members of this forum) have to explain what has happened to the unaware casual users of Vegas.
The basic Vegas Pro 17 Edit ($399) has the software’s full feature set Vegas Pro 17 ($599) adds Boris FX Continuum Lens Flare 3D and Vegas DVD Architect for DVD and Blu-ray authoring Vegas Pro 17 Suite ($799) brings Steinberg SpectraLayers Pro 6 and more Boris FX tools into the mix, and the Vegas Pro 365 subscription offering (from $16.67/month) includes future product updates as well as the Sound Forge Audio Studio 13 audio editing software. Vegas Pro 17 is available in four different versions.
“They’ve been completely clear about what they wanted to see from the software over the past three years, and their suggestions have made this an incredibly robust and feature-rich release.” “More than any other release, our users have directed what our team has developed in this version,” said Vegas Product Manager Gary Rebholz in a prepared statement. Smart Split Edit can be used to hide jump cuts in interviews, and a new planar motion tracking feature now supports tracking and pinning objects that aren’t square with the camera view.
Vegas Pro 17 also has GPU-based open color I/O processing in the ACES 1.1 color space, with support for HDR grading, scopes, preview and delivery using either HDR10 or HLG.ĪVC/HEVC decoding can now run on the GPU for smoother playback from the timeline, and Vegas now supports 8K files, either panned and cropped on the timeline or delivered in full 8K.Ī new optical-flow slow-motion effect has been added for interpolating frames in slow-motion footage, and the Warp Flow transition interpolates frames to “morph” from the tail of one clip to the head of the next. Vegas Pro’s newly unified color-grading workflow integrates the software’s grading tools in one panel and supports LUT exports so that color settings can be reused elsewhere, in other clips or in other projects. Workflow improvements in Vegas Pro 17 start with a nested timeline feature that allows products to be organized into smaller sections, allowing users to move from the master timeline into complex nested timelines that can be shared with assistants as separate project files.
Vegas Pro hit version 17 today, with the release of a new version of the NLE that Magix Software boasts has 30 new features.
