Software Reviews of Vegas Pro 8 [OLD VERSION]
Customer Review: Great video editting
Summary: 5 Stars
Program easy to use and all instuctions clear for even the first time user. Amazon has the retail price wrong though. It sells at Sony for 549.99 not 699.00 as they have on there sell for price.Customer Review: Seamless Editing control
Summary: 5 Stars
This is by far the most_stable video editing software out there. Works extreemly well with larger HD files and rendering is seamless. I've had it for over four months and no issues at all. Great interface. ALso comes with DVD architect which alone is great as well.
Customer Review: Best Prosumer NLE Software Available
Summary: 5 Stars
Sony "Vegas Pro 8" is simply one of the best high-end video editing software on the market. The package includes Vegas Pro 8 and DVD Architect Pro 4.5. (Update 1/3/2009: Vegas Pro 8 users can update to DVD Architect Pro 5 for free, providing Blu-Ray support).
We have produced over 20 instruction videos using Vegas (starting with Vegas 4) and could not be happier with the results. Every step from capturing the footage off our Mini-DV Canon GL2 Camcorder to authoring the master DVD is a smooth process.
Here are some general observations:
* The interface has a nice layout right out of the box, but is also easily customized to suite your personal editing habits
* The included plugins are top notch and compare nicely with some of the high dollar add ons for Adobe Premiere Pro and Adobe After Effects
* Easier to use and learn than Adobe Premiere Pro
* Unlimited Video and Audio Tracks
* Great interactive tutorials are actually useful
* Great chromakey (greenscreen) functionality
Home and casual video editors might also want to consider Sony Vegas Movie Studio Platinum 9, which has most of the same features (with a limited number of Video and Audio tracts), but is much less expensive.
Highly recommended!
Customer Review: Vegas Pro 8
Summary: 4 Stars
Having used Vegas Movie Studio and Sound Forge previously, I found the software relatively easy to use. It enabled me to edit my first HD movie and make a nice video the first time. I have not used this program extensively yet. Transitions and fades were easy to add. I could do much of the audio editing in this program without having to export the sound track to another application.
Customer Review: Excelleny Nonlinear Editor
Summary: 4 Stars
I've used a lot of NLEs and this Sony Vegas Pro 8.0 is by far the best. It will do projects Adobe balks at. Excellent features though there are a few things I think Sony could improve, like their titling section. WYSIWYG -- it's been here a long time -- your titler yearns for it.
