Software Reviews of Sony Vegas Movie Studio + DVD 7 Platinum Edition [OLD VERSION]
Customer Review: from beginner to pro
Summary: 5 Stars
I've done this stuff years ago on tape...ahh the 1" days, and cutting audio tape with a razor. I got out of the business right about the time things were going digital, hence my present position in the learning curve.
I've read about the skimpy manual that comes in the box; for quick starters and those familiar with NLE's. There is a 400page+ PDF manual that pretty much says it all. Look in the program file. That's a lot of info, but between the quick start manual and the search function in pdf a lot of answers can be had. Go ahead and load something fun and just start pushing buttons; you're not going to break anything and you will find interesting things to learn.
Also, realize Vegas was an audio editor first, then they added video which has pretty much taken over the program (at least so goes the rumor. There are still many audio tools in vegas and ways to edit just the audio track.
Hint: Get a CONTOUR DESIGN ShuttlePRO V.2 . It's worth the money just for the scrub control and frame wheel.
Customer Review: Everything you need to edit and produce a video
Summary: 4 Stars
I have tried the trial versions of several different entry level video editing programs and decided to purchase the Sony Vegas Movie Studio. Vegas Movie Studio Platinum seems to have the best features and is a stable application. It allows 3 video tracks to be set up simultaneously as well as supporting Dolby 5.1 sound. I believe it gives you a little more control over some of the effects although you can set up transitions fairly fast if you want to. The one defect I have found is the rendering speeds (hence the 4 stars). It can take 2-3 times as long to render a video as it did to actually take the video footage. I am also using a trial version of Womble and it renders at roughly 4-6 times faster than Vegas Movie Studio. That is a big difference when you are rendering a 2 hour video. Other than that rendering issue, I think Vegas Movie Studio has more features than most of the other programs and seems to be more stable than a couple of the other video editing programs that I have tried.Customer Review: Great until I messed it up!

Training DVD is a great help for a not so good video editor. Learned a few things fast and was able to input into my video without any problems. I did run into problems where a chapter marker appeared to early and the video did not keep time with the timeline during playback. I'm sure it's my error and will work on it till right.
Otherwise a great program. Be sure you have the hardware and memory to work on video or keep the files short.
Customer Review: Great software...

I loved the product. I am not a computer person and I was able to figure out how to put my video on and add music and still pictures to make a movie and burn it onto a dvd.
