Do you work for Magix and or Vegas?
No I do not. I am, however, affiliated with them, which means
I get the software for free and get a kick back if someone buys through my link.
Why do you like VEGAS so much?
It's the right price; it's really powerful; it's ahead of the game sometimes.
How did you learn Vegas?
I've been doing video production since middle school, and in Highschool I started using Movie Studios to edit with. I went to College for Video Production Tech and weren’t happy with the “industry standard” editors I used there. I’ve used VEGAS ever since.

PLEASE READ: MOVIE STUDIO has had a change and it's not the same as when I made this video. It's imperative that you know this. I'm releasing and update to this video ASAP
I just read this comment NOW AFTER I purchased Movie Studio 17 Platinum. Could you tell me basically what has changed?
It's really none of your business which I should buy. Isn't it literally your job to answer questions like this?
Thanks! I have Platinum 13, and I've been needing to upgrade, so this really helped!
Perfect!
Hi Adam, last year I used your affiliate link and WAS able to upgrade movie studio to vegas pro. Thank you for teaching me how to edit videos!
Good deal!!
And thank you!
This video showed up just in time for me!
Fantastic! This is the explanation I have been looking for. Nice to know I am not the only one who thinks Vegas is great but the versions are confusing. And thanks for including the fact that your details in your info will probably be out of date by the time I read it. I am using Platinum 13 at the moment and thinking of upgrading. My Platinum 13 keeps telling me I can upgrade, and at the moment it is saying an upgrade to Pro would be 99 (can't remember whether that is £, $ or €). I am planning to tell friends about the video.
vegas pro is my favourite video editor it’s perfect for me!
will thanks a lot for this video man
you saved my life & my money
Thanks found it very helpful
I recently decided I needed to take a stab at both Video and Sound editing for some streamers/VOD creators, and had a bunch of software keys already that I hadn't bothered with. Thanks for sorting out the versions for me. I have platinum and soundforge keys, which seems like it will be plenty. There are a daunting number of options/versions out there just for this software, and it's boggling if you consider more than one editing software name. Anyhow, thanks for clearing this one up!
Got lot' o tutorials too!
Great explanations! I wish I'd seen this video when I bought my vegas pro! One correction I'd like to make though is that you actually can get an upgrade price to vegas from movie studio... at least they offered it when I bought mine.
Holy shit that first minute read my mind nearly verbatim. You are a Godsend my dude, thank you!
Well, as long as I have your attention (thanks for the heart!), is it possible to upgrade from Vegas Pro 365 to Post 365? I'm just curious for budgetary reasons.
I'm like 99% sure that's a yes.
Very useful 👍 Thanks!
thank you for this! i had adobe for editing my CZcams videos but i realized its alot to be doing subcriptions especially because i do more simple videos, i tried filmora and it was terrible with it lagging and crashing every minute, I was looking for an inexpensive one time license purchase and i think vegas platinum is perfect for me!
Great Video!
A question, if you don't mind. I have Movie Studio Platinum 13, since it still works fine, but I REALLY need masking and speed ramping. Basically the kind of transition where you fill the frame with an object and mask it out to reveal the next clip. As well as speed ramping would certainly help whip transitions or other such transitions that you'd speed up. I use that right now (well, when large events open back up lol) but having the exact same transition type is getting old. The speed ramping would just smooth out what I can already do, but masking would help a lot. Would you suggest Pro? Or just the newest Platinum? Platinum 13 has no masking. Also, I'm not really sure if it's better to get the regular Pro, or the Pro Edit. I can't tell what the actual differences are, but I'd rather pay for the cheaper of the 2 if I had to pick based on cost. Sorry if I just didn't understand the video and you already answered this, but it all confuses me.
Underrated channel
Underrated Comment . Thanks!
I know I'm late but question: Does the original movie studio 17 have project properties? like: rulers for example.
hey man i have a quick question I'm hoping you can answer. I got vegas pro 17 suite last year but on my desktop it doesn't say suite. I have the extra plugins and programs that are advertised, but I'm just wondering why on my desktop the application is not purple, it's blue. It doesn't say "suite" either. Is it supposed to be like this? I just want to make sure I installed the right version. On my user info on the sony vegas website, it says that I have vegas pro 17 activated but not the suite version. I'm confused now because when I went to download the suite version, in the installer it showed the different programs it would install and I realized I already had all of them. (spectralayers, dvd architect, etc...) am i on the right version???
I mistakenly posted this to the Vegas VPRRO 18 user forum and was redirected here. As you do ask for feedback, here's what I posted:
I watched your video and thank you for the amazing amount of details you explained. It was a bit like a firehose in the face for me. And while you did explain the differences, as you got rolling, you began to throw a ton of videographic (my term) insider terminology in ever increasing speed, that novices are saying, "what does that mean. Wait, wait, now what does that mean?" Until I glazed over and ran screaming from the room.
Marco mentioned scripting and compositing as the big differences between pro and Movie Studio. I still don't know what scripting or compositing is... and why I would want that.
I know I can dig deeper on other resources and find out all about those capabilities. But for the novice group (I'm president), can we have a 10,000 foot explanation here?
PS: From my VMSP 17 I keep getting offered Vegas Pro Edit 18 for $99.00. So I guess there is an upgrade path of some kind. I think on your video, you were not sure of that.
Thanks for your many videos. I will be an avid viewer on this journey.
Thanks for watching! I'd say the biggest advantages to Vegas Pro is video scopes (charted color and light info), composite modes, (advanced ways to blend layers of video), The use of Pro Res codec, use of luts, (color look up tables), and a few new features aimed at restoration work in 18. That is to say, if nothing jumps out at you from that roster then movie studio platinum is hard to beat. These are a "if you don't know then don't worry" set of thing. I'd only use the basic ms if you don't edit often, since there's less room to grow into it. Thanks for your feedback!
Scripting is only if you want to program your own plug in or buy other people's custom ones. They are handy, but it's not a make break for pro untill you're editing so much that... Youre a pro!
Question for you which is best for animation/tweening? I want to start animating and dont know which bersion of vegas is best. Can you tell me which?
I have Movie Studio 16. My problem is that when I add media to the Media Window, it automatically adds it to the track. Likewise, when I delete a clip from the track, it deletes it from the Media Window. I want to be able to add clips from the Media Window one at a time without having them appear on the track when I load all of the clips to the project. Does anyone have a solution for this? Or is this just how it is with Movie Studio 16?

What’s best program to edit music videos or movies
I have been using Sony Vegas Pro 11 and I've been using that version since 2012 and I NEED a change. Yt's video quality keeps changing so my videos like Covers and Multifandoms can only get up to 720p and I'd like to get up to HD and get better effects for my crossovers. I've never known which newer version to use. I make all kinds of vids but audio, video, effects and all of that are real important to me.. I need help. lol
Hi there! Do you know if the Vegas Pro Edit version (orange one) has the mask option in the Video Event FX ? Like the little box that can be ticked. I'm asking because I wanted to upgrade from the Movie Studio version
Yes it does
i just bought a 3060 and i use movie studio platinum 13 (i know that it is old) but... how it is pobbilbe that 1 minute clip takes 40 minute to render? is movie studio 13 older enough to not support the actual hardware? because untill yesterday i edited video with an old pc with a 720m and now as i said i have a desktop pc with 3060 and a 10600k... someone knows this stuff?
How can i find and learn about 3rd party plug ins?
Does Vegas Pro requires a more poweful hardware? I have Movie Studio 16 and works fine in my laptop, but I'm considering whether to upgrade to Movie Sutdio 17 or to Pro 18 when it arrives.
You don't need a more powerful computer
What gives you the most effects
Guys pls help me. I have a discount on Vegas Pro 17 Edit Steam edition but I don’t know if it comes with less features than Vegas Pro 17 Edits. Can someone pls tell me what’s the difference?
Hey man, is movie studio a good option for gameplay commentary videos ? Great video btw
Thanks, and yes, i'd suggest platinum!
Is post and platinum the same thing?
which option would be best for making music videos with a lot of effects
Davinci Resolve is what you want. I'm a pro video editor and vegas just really isn't stable enough for that
sir is vegas effects laggy like hitfilm ?
One more question. I'm a filmmaker and new user to the 4k camera. In your opinion, which one should I go with, Vegas Pro Suite or Vegas Post Suite?
It depends. If you want access to a photo editor and a 3d effects platform, then vegas post. If you just want to get used to the basics before you spend money pro edit or even movie studio would be better
Third-party plugins can only be installed on pro.
When I bought the movie stadium platinum I thought it would have the masking tool where you can make the cutout like in sony vegas. Only till now I found out it doesn't have the tool I really wanted. Is there a plug in I can find it or is that one tool locked behind Sony Vegas subscrubtion bs?
it's in bezier masking fx
@@TechDiveAVCLUB that must be in movie stadium 16 or higher. I only got 15 platinum unless there's an update that can be done.
What’s the major differences between this version and Sony Vegas 14 for editing a music video? Can’t I still use the same transitions from 17 to 14?
There's just more options and smoother performance. For example, the bezier masking is better. There's also more fonts. I've got a playlist of reviews my playlist tab the highlights all the improvements to each version
@@TechDiveAVCLUB thank you i have it now .. gonna try it on the next project
Im going to start producing 4k game analysis and critique videos... So this will involve editing large chunks of game footage, using a microphone to read a pre-written script, and editing the audio. Sometimes it will just be my voice, other times it will just be the game audio. What version of Vegas will suit me? Id assume I dont need the most advanced version right?
I'd go with Movie Studio Platinum!
@@TechDiveAVCLUB Sweet! I haven't edited or used Vegas since 2006, so I have some ground to make up.. but I got this.
@@GodWarsX I've got tons of videos to help! Also, you can leave a comment if you have any tutorial suggestions. If you happen to use my affiliates link in the description id be very grateful!
@@TechDiveAVCLUB I'm buying the program later today after work. I'll be happy to use your link to do so. Can't wait to jump back into video editing and to take this channel to new heights
Which software do you prefer doing Music Video editing.?.
either would do great! If you're mixing the audio in the software, I'd choose pro because it has a higher possible sample rate.
which version would have picture in picture? also, would let me make the video clip into mp4 and/or h264 [i think] for android? looking at the website, its all confusing for me. any help would be appreciated.
They all do!
@@TechDiveAVCLUB i have movie studio 15. i can not figure out if that version has picture in picture. trying to play 2 video clips together from vandals on property.
I can't Remember if it was added by 15 or not. This video will help either way czcams.com/video/NV8-7fX5PGU/video.html
14:40 I have Movie Studio 17, and Magix sent me an email for upgrading to Vegas Pro Edit for 75% off. I just got it for $99. I hope it was worth it.
Nice
Here's a serious question. I'm being offered an upgrade on my movie studio 17 to vegas pro edit 17....is that a good deal, or should I save for the BIG vegas pro 17, and not edit. I do video editing for clients, and want to make sure I'm getting the best for my cash (the offer is $99, when vegas pro edit is $399). Am I losing any big features besides DVD making, when using edit instead of pro?
Vegas pro edit is Vegas pro, just without some extra software
@@TechDiveAVCLUB So I'm still getting the full Vegas Pro, just no other software?
@@h20delorian yes
Can you please tell me which one is good for ASMR and vlogging videos? Thanks in advance
I'd say movie studio platinum ought to work great
@@TechDiveAVCLUB Thanks!
Bro please update
What is the difference of sony vegas pro and sony vegas pro upgrade
from what I herd if you have one of the older Sony Vegas pro software's then you get a discount for the new software's
I can’t buy VEGAS pro 17 cuz only for rent I hate that , I want buy it one time for 350$ but they want . thats mean I will continue in my crack Vegas .
i want all of the composition modes and track motion wondering which one i should get
at least VEGAS Pro Edit
@@TechDiveAVCLUB okay thanks i test put the pro trial but it runs so slow on my computer i may have to just stick w movie studio :/
@@FirstBornArt They should work about the same as far as speed. It might just be some settings that are off. Movie Studio Plat still has a lot of power too, and will still do multiply mask and chroma keys, and standard layers
Thanks for your video which prompt me to write in for a refund. Am looking for a Movie Studio 17 now and prehaps you guys can advise whether to get MS 17 Platinum or MS17 Suite and where to buy. Thank in advance!
I'm glad you found it. I'd sugest looking into vegas pro and it's new pricing models
@@TechDiveAVCLUB I started with Vegas Pro 8 and using Pro 15 now. But due to cost conern and ease of use, wWe are buying Movie Studio version for our volunteers and so far had purchase Studio 16 and 17. Thought of trying Studio 18 for the upcoming training but not anymore, thanks to your alert.
is there any way to switch version?
like from vegas 17 to vegas 13
So I've got Magix Movie Edit Pro Plus 2021, and now I'm utterly confused. Is there an option to get some sort of Effects tool separately or the only option is $999 for POST suite?
Magix has two sofware lines for video editing, the Magix movie stuff and the Vegas Software line. You're mixing and matching which is why the price seems so high. You'd be buying a whole new video editor. Vegas is it's own company that magix bought, so it's a whole separate deal. I know it's confusing
@@TechDiveAVCLUB yeah, realized that a few weeks ago and threw some cash at Hitfilm Pro :)
@@whiskeysk cool lol that's essentially the same thing as vegas effects
@@TechDiveAVCLUB that was the thought process behind it, secretly hoping that at least some of the tutorials for vegas effects would be applicable without having to dish out $999 for the suite... ;)
I know nothing about editing. This summer i'll be trying to make montages, like clipping moments and adding music, effects writings and god knows what else. What version would be the best for me? I was thinking sony vegas pro
I think i didnt elaborate what im actually looking for, a model that has spicy effects, a lot of clip-placing-spaces?!? omfg dont judge im the clueless one here
It's hard to go wrong with movie studio platinum
@@TechDiveAVCLUB ty 🙏
The question I have is why you use Vegas over other NLEs.
Easy, cheap, powerful
quick question does platinum crash or lag ?? lol i dont want to have to go thru the hassle of getting a refund again like i had to with filmora
Every editor does, even premier and avid. I've personally gone through it. but I'm able to use vegas products with limited crashing. Most days, no crashes, but I can't say it doesn't ever crash
@@TechDiveAVCLUB no yeah for sure but Im saying like Can I get Adleast 30 min constant editing without it crashing every minute
@@kstylenbeauty Yes, you can.
I was going for Vegas Pro, ended up with Movie Studio. I hope it's similar enough for $50
You can always upgrade for cheaper if you decide to move up, but i think you'll like it.
you do know pro is selling for $30 on humblebundle, right?
@@moemenshahawy expired...
I'm sorry for asking this. But. If i get vegas pro 365. It gives me basically vegas pro 18-19 but i just pay monthly?. So basically what im asking is. Does vegas pro 365 Still give vegas 18-19 and higher I am just only paying monthly with online lessons?
yeah, pro 365 auto upgrades and it has a few extra goodies listed online with monthly model
@@TechDiveAVCLUB Alr thanks for the help
I’m just trying to find the price of Sony Vegas 2 😭
The saddest thing is that half of the people watching this were just here to find out which version they should look for a pirated copy of.
Then complain that the pirated virus ridden Frankenstein software doesn't work as expected
@@TechDiveAVCLUB Exactly.
i bought movie studio platinum steam edition id have better luck pirating it
i bought vegas pro 17 and after i bought it i can’t find it anywhere and when i search it up on chrome it just says to buy it again
You should have a magix /vegas account from when you bought it that has everything you need to download and activate it.
@@TechDiveAVCLUB i downloaded it as a guest
@@draydenmartin298 if you downloaded it then you should have an exe in your downloads
You should speak more on Movie Vegas Suite.
maybe in my next buyers guide video
@@TechDiveAVCLUB I have a problem with magix customer service not honoring my request for assistant in re-uploading it to my computer. "Because it crashed! Which I purchase from them for $99.00 + Cd for $14.99 the serial# number that came with it is not working. They sent me a fake trial period serial number. I have spent good money with them and they are playing games with me.
I am left wondering if it's because they realized I am black man living in the Caribbean?????????????????????
Sooo first of all, thanks for explaining. But I still have questions.
What I am looking for is a programm which allows me to
1. add a movie
2. Remove its audio
3. record new audio (i tried windows movie maker and oh well, it was frustrating. Maybe its so easy and simple that my brain just dont want to get it.)
I feel like the 365 Version is right for me Butttttt their website confuses me also.
It says (12 months/ yearly payment) -> 19,99 €
or
(12 months/ monthly payment) -> 20,99 €
Does that make any sense at all?? We're talking about a price difference of 231,89 € per year.....
All do. Even the cheapest one!
And i think the price difference is based on how much you're willing to pay up front
Tech Dive AVCLUB thanks a lot!!
@@KJun2_ You dont even need software for editing videos. You can remove audio from video, then you will have only video without audio, or audio which has got only silence.
But you will lack of video preview. Nuendo is software which is exactly made for that, as far as i remember.
Then you load your newly prepared audio, which u want to add to original video file. You need only simple software for that, which is able to load video file, and load new audio file - which will replace original audio file of video. Then you must re-encode, save destination video file, with your whole new audio, and video file.
Handbrake would do that. Avidemux for sure.
VirtualDub2 would be big help, and free (simple but powerfull video editor, and encoder of audio, video!).
Maryjon Zezulon oh thanks a lot! I was unsure which programs would actually work and all google told me was Windows movie maker and as you may have read in one of my comments, that I ffs can’t handle wmm 😂 I’ll look out for your recommendations!!! Thanks a lot mate!

Thank you. I checked it out and I was wanting to go with Vegas Post Suite, and I went for the upgrade to get the discount, however, it doesn't tell me what Vegas Pro version I will be receiving. Do you know if with every Vegas Post Suite order they give you Vegas Pro 18?
I didn't even know there were different versions lmao
I've heard Vegas is difficult to edit 4K on all Vegas versions is that true? Also what cameras of 4K can Vegas edit? I've heard Vegas can't edit Panasonic Lumix
My friend and Fellow VEGAS tutorial maker Scrapyard films uses the Lumix G7. I've not heard no have I personally had any issues with editing 4k footage on VEGAS.

Buy?
This is STILL confusing as hell. Not your explanation but the companies lineup. You keep calling it Vegas, yet the email offerings from this company is calling it "Magix". (Yes I know that's the "cover" company). They're calling it (the ad) "Movie Edit Pro" and (I think) you're calling it Vegas Edit Pro. Damn it! (LOL!) So is a 49.99 "Movie Edit Pro" (which is pretty cheap) a good upgrade from Movie Studio 17 Platinum?
Ok... so magix has their own line of editors, and they are the parent company for Vegas Creative software... which also sells video editing software. www.vegascreativesoftware.com is the line of software I'm talking about.
Now, the big question is "Where does Video Pro X fit in?" 🤔
