SonyVegas Platinum, June 8, 2007
By Paul Kozakiewicz (New York)
This is my third video editing program and Last. Finally I found one that actually works the way they said it would.I always bought Soney Electronic products so I went by name to purchase this program. My biggest problem in the past was adding media, even properly formatted. No problems like that anymore.There are a lot of options and effects to add which are easily found. There is a tutorial you can use that shows you on screen how to deal with a task not known. Being it has so many effects and options to apply to you video it is a little difficult at first but like everything else you get familiar with time. On screen help online, and a manual is gives.I made a movie 1 hr after installation. Get IT.

Trying out Sony Vegas, November 11, 2006
By Reginald J. Belbin (Western Australia)
All I can say is this; I installed the program and when I tried to use it, I could not get it to do what I wanted which was to run thru a V.H.S.
home movie that I had recorded onto D.V.D. and remove some unwanted segments. It seemed to only want to remove the beginning or the end, so I have uninstalled it for the time being. I tried to follow the book of instructions. perhaps I need a greater intelligence. Sorry

Very Powerful Wonderful Tool, October 10, 2006
By Brad S. Williams
I have used Adobe Premier and Final Cut with Macintosh computers and I am very impressed with VEGAS Platinum with HD. I don't have an HD camera so I can't comment on the HD features. I have the Canon GL2. The editing is powerful, and through using the s to seperate events and then delete the material that I don't want I am able to edit just as well as I edited in Adobe, and all the other unique and easy to use feature really make using this software a breeze. The thing that has really impressed me is how stable it is. I used adobe Premier with the same computer and really had a lot of slow downs and crashes. I give this product a big thumbs up, and the DVD software is simply amazing. I haven't used the full Vegas 7 but when I have the cash I am considering the jump.



This Is a Piece of Quality Product, September 15, 2006

I have enough of Roxio. Roxio is a piece of crap. Avoid Roxio in all causes.

I am using Digital Image Suite 2006 for photo and Vegas for movie now.

I downloaded the demo from Sony. After playing with the demo for a day or two, I was sold.

Vegas is easy to use, fast, and reliable. No crashing. Will not turn your state-of-the-art PC into a 486. Can read files in Unicode. Lots of useful features.

This is my first time to use this product. No manual needed if I only want to do simple thing. However, I do need to do some reading if I want to do something more complicated.

The package comes with two products. Vegas Movie Studio is used to edit/build your movie. DVD Architect is used to assemble and burn your movies to the DVD.

DVD Architect is so easy to use. A newbie like me takes no time to make a DVD with multiple menu and chapters.

The package also comes with two tiny manuals, one is for Vegas and the other one is for DVD Architect. The manuals only show you how to use the softwares. They don't show you how to make movie.

On the down side, the package comes with a useless training DVD, a bunch of video and sound special effects, and a stripped copy of ACID Music Studio with no useful function but to pop out ton of ads to ask you to buy the full version. On the other hand, if you want, you can set up Vegas to use any music program you like. I set it to use Sound Editor from Roxio. (Unlike the rest of the Roxio, Sound Editor from Roxio is actually pretty good.)

But Vegas is not prefect. It won't let you burn MPEG1 DVD. So, don't bother to try to burn your VCD movies to one 4.7g DVD. It will convert the MPEG1 files to MPEG2 files.

Buttomline. This is a great reliable product. Your money will be well spent.
