Sony Vegas is a video editing software package for non-linear editing systems (NLE) originally published by Sonic Foundry, now owned and run by Sony Creative Software. Originally developed as an audio editor, it eventually developed into an NLE for video and audio from version 2.0. Vegas features real-time
multitrack video and audio editing on unlimited tracks,
resolution-independent video sequencing, complex effects and compositing
tools, 24-bit/192 kHz audio support, VST and DirectX plug-in effect support, and Dolby Digital surround sound mixing. Up to version 10, Vegas Pro runs on Microsoft Windows XP (32-bit only), Vista and 7 (both 32- and 64-bit editions). Version 11 dropped support for Windows XP.
The consumer level Sony Vegas Movie Studio version (formerly titled
VideoFactory and
Screenblast) shares the same interface and underlying code base
as the professional Vegas version, but does not include professional
features such as advanced compositing tools, or advanced DVD/Blu-ray
Disc authoring. In previous releases, the video editing portion of the
professional suite could be purchased separately from Sony's DVD and Blu-ray Disc authoring software, DVD Architect Pro
(previously called DVD Architect; DVD Architect Studio is the consumer
version), then a package called 'Vegas DVD' became available while
Vegas 7 was out. Since the release of Vegas Pro 8.0, both DVD Architect
Studio Pro 4.5, Vegas Pro 8.0, as well as
Boris FX LTD and
Magic Bullet Movie Looks HD are all bundled together and may not be purchased individually.
