Professional HD Video, Audio, and Blu-Ray Disc Creation


Stereoscopic 3D Editing

Creating stereoscopic 3D projects is as easy as working with 2D media. With innovative new tools, Vegas Pro 10 provides the ability to import, adjust, edit, preview, and output stereoscopic 3D media in various formats. Delivery formats include single or dual files including side-by-side, top/bottom, or line alternate as well as traditional anaglyphic encoding.

Closed Captioning Support

Closed captioning support offers broadcast editors a workflow that enables the importing, editing, previewing, and exporting of CEA-608 captioned data in high definition Sony XDCAM MXF material. In addition, Vegas Pro 10 provides CEA-708 uplifting and encoding, Line 21 decode and render support, HD-SDI capture and print, and support for industry closed captioning file types.

Enhanced Video Plug-In Architecture

The new video effects plug-in architecture, based on the Open Effects Association platform, provides updated and enhanced technology that enables third-party plug-in developers to develop advanced video effect plug-ins more easily and rapidly. Additional plug-ins offer Vegas Pro 10 users hundreds of new effect and special techniques for creating professional-level projects.

Image Stabilization

Vegas Pro 10 provides a smooth playback experience by reducing jittery or shaky video that often occurs when shooting without a tripod or with inexpensive portable pocket devices.

Audio Event FX

Vegas Pro 10 allows editors to assign audio effects at the master output, bus level, track level, and now the event level for greater flexibility when working with multitrack projects.

VU Meters

VU meters, available in the mixing console, provide a slow measurement that averages peaks and troughs to provide a visual representation of the perceived loudness of material.

Sony Vegas Pro 10 Image Stabilization
Use image stabilization technology to reduce jitter and shaky video footage.
Sony Vegas Pro 10 Track Management
Grouping tracks saves space on the timeline by providing collapsed tracks under a single header track.
Track Grouping

Grouping tracks saves space on the Vegas Pro timeline by collapsing related tracks under a single track header. This is a quick and easy way to organize and manage complex projects by grouping specific sections of video/audio.

GPU Accelerated AVC Encoding

Vegas Pro 10 uses the graphics processing unit (GPU) in equipped computers to improve AVC rendering performance and speed, which allows final projects to be published faster than ever before. Users with a CUDA-enabled NVIDIA video card are able to encode to the Sony AVC format using GPU-accelerated rendering.

Improved QuickTime AVC Decode

Editors using popular DSLRs that record to QuickTime AVC gain significant improvement in playback performance.

AVCHD Timecode Support

AVCHD timecode support allows the extraction and reporting of timecode from AVCHD files written by supported camcorders such as the Sony NXCAM. This support provides more precise logging, editing and synchronizing with other media.

Precise Editing Tools

Edit SD or HD video with drag-and-drop functionality, mouse and keyboard trimming, and ripple editing. Features include the ProType Titler, multicamera editing tools, 32-bit floating point video processing, customizable window layouts, color-coded snapping, improved HDV/SDI/XDCAM support, A/V synchronization detection and repair, and auto-frame quantization.

Broad Format Support

Vegas Pro 10 software natively supports the newest professional camcorder formats including XDCAM EX and RED. Vegas Pro 10 software also includes support for still images greater than one gigapixel in resolution. Use Pan and Scan to create a stunning movie sequence from these large pictures while maintain HD resolution.

Superior Audio Control

Vegas software provides the ultimate in audio flexibility, including unlimited tracks, 24-bit/192 kHz audio support, on-the-fly punch-in recording, 5.1 surround mixing, effects automation, and time compress/expand. Apply over 30 customizable, real time audio effects including EQ, Reverb, Delay, and more. Vegas Pro 10 software natively supports VST audio plug-ins—expanding your audio processing and mixing options.

Efficient, Professional Workflow for 32- and 64-bit Systems

The Vegas Pro 10 interface provides a fully customizable workspace for accomplishing a wide range of production requirements. Dock multiple windows across multiple monitors, and save your layouts to fit specific editing tasks; nest Vegas projects within the timeline, customize and save keyboard commands, and use application scripting to automate repetitive tasks. System-wide media management produces maximum efficiency. Network rendering saves time by using multiple computers and networked drive arrays to render complex projects. Vegas Pro software also supports 24p, HD and HDV editing.

Powerful Blu-ray Disc Authoring

Burn movies to Blu-ray Disc directly from the Vegas Pro timeline for high-definition delivery. Use DVD Architect Pro software (included with the Vegas Pro collection) to author DVDs or Blu-ray Disc media with multiple video angles, subtitles, multiple languages, and special features. Preview and test your work in real time. Apply Brightness and Contrast, Auto Levels, Crop, and Anti-Flicker filters. Set CSS and Macrovision copy-protection flags for masters.

Sony Vegas Pro 10 Audio

Sony Vegas Pro 10--DVD Architect Pro
DVD Architect Pro's clean, drag-and-drop interface and powerful layout and authoring tools make it easy to develop dynamic menu-based Blu-ray Disc and DVD projects.
Full-featured XDCAM Workflow

The Vegas Pro 10 workflow for XDCAM and XDCAM EX is extremely intuitive and efficient. Vegas Pro 10 software provides all the tools needed to edit proxy and full resolution HD and SD XDCAM MXF files natively and supports all frame rates and aspect ratios, multichannel audio, EssenceMarks metadata, and all HD and SD XDCAM compression types. Vegas Pro 10 software can natively read all XDCAM EX frame rates and resolutions. The new integrated device explorer lets you preview and import only the files you need for your current project.

4K Support

Vegas Pro 10 software natively supports frame sizes up to 4096x4096. The 4K image standard for digital cinema projection is 4096 x 2160 pixels. This level of resolution provides more detail and flexibility to pan and crop. It is ideal for compositing and video effects work, as it provides a high-quality final output.

Digital Signage Support

Digital signage support in Vegas Pro 10 software makes it easy to author video for tall signage purposes. To shoot content for these displays, many tripods have a 90-degree camera-tilt option. With Vegas Pro 10 software you can edit in this format with a new "Rotation" setting in the video tab of Project Properties, as well as a "Rotation" setting in the Media Properties dialog (and related rotation commands in the Project Media item context menu). In addition to fast and easy rotation of source media, Vegas Pro 10 software can un-rotate the project output to render to existing widescreen formats, for playback on rotated displays.

Multicamera Workflow

Edit multicamera productions intuitively and quickly by specifying shots as you watch your project. Switch between as many as 32 video sources with a keyboard command or a click of your mouse. Vegas Pro 10 software keeps all unused shots as alternate takes to make fine-tuning your edits more efficient.

Sophisticated Lighting Effects

In version 10 are Glint, Rays, Defocus, Starburst, Soft Contrast, and Fill Light. These effects let you simulate the effect of light streaming in from behind your source, create colored highlights, change the focus of your shot and more.

Enhanced 32-bit Floating Point Video Processing

Work in 8-bit mode for speed, then switch to 32-bit floating point for extra precision during final rendering. This mode allows you to take advantage of greater color range for more vivid colors, reduced gradient banding and posterization for smoother color transitions, linear light capability for optically correct compositing, and many other precision enhancements.

Comprehensive HDV Support

Vegas Pro 10 software includes support for high-performance native HDV M2T playback, and 601/709 color space handling. Experience superior SD downconversion and frame-rate conversion including 24p, and precision upconversion for HD-SDI mastering. Vegas Pro 10 software also has powerful no-recompress technology for faster render times.

Interactive Tutorials

Vegas Pro 10 software has a comprehensive help system, as well as detailed interactive tutorials that provide walk-through demonstrations of common features and functionality. These tutorials provide an easy step-by-step method of learning the product and the workflow necessary to complete most common tasks.

    I would think about purchasing Vergas Pro 10c Win 7 64 Bit. I have at lease a min 2 major crashes or lockup per day in the Stereoscopic mode.

    I try to open a trouble ticket with Sony Tech support were you paid. I was told they wouldn't take the ticket. I'm C++ developer has the lasted debugging tool from Microsoft. Here what I found out Sony Vegas Pro 10c has major threading and memory issues in the (Stereoscopic mode) on Win 7 64 bit version, I offer Sony this info they said no thanks, there development group was aware of these issues!

    If you can live with the crashes and lock-out while doing "Stereoscopic work) it a great application, with no techical support on these issues other them removie all appications and leave only Sony Vegas Pro 10c on your system. I disagree with Sony approach, a very poor way out, say it someone else problem, were Sony

    Enjoy

    I've been using Vegas Pro since version 8. Version 9 was a big improvement in terms of speed and stability.

    So far version 10 has been nice and stable. I use the 64 bit version on a quite powerful PC.

    However rendering times are between 10% and 20% slower with the same footage, on the same PC rendering to the same file type.

    This is quite disappointing - I'd expected if anything version 10 would be the same or faster.

    Of the new features the image stabilising is nice but does crop around 15% of the image and reduces image quality slightly.

    I've no plan to create 3d movies so the new 3d features are of no use to me personally.

    Other than that its virtually identical to version 9. I'm really not sure the upgrade is worth it unless creating 3d videos are important.

    I have the Sony Movie Studio HD platinum production Suite. The Suite version has a teaching video CD which was excellent, BUT it had difficulty rendering a 7 minute HD video (1280x720) an kept giving me a low memory error (Due to the fact this is a 32 bit program and only recognises 4 gig of memory max.)(You can solve this issue by selecting 'advanced render', 'custom', and selecting a lower 'bit rate'(from 5Mbps to 3 Mbps) for the render, but this of course lowers the quality of the video but it is still of good quality).

    I decided to try the Vegas Pro trial (from the Sony website) but on installation, Vegas Pro and Movie Studio were 'bugged' and wouldn't start.

    On removal of the Vegas Pro trial it wiped some of my other programs (Adobe reader, Fraps etc and messed up my steam (game/msn type program) and Movie Studio would not run.(A major hassle!)

    Undeterred I ordered the disc upgrade and uninstalled Movie Studio. The disc version on this date is version 10a. On installation of Vegas 10a (which worked fine) it said that there was a newer version I could download (from the Sony site: Version 10c). On installation of version 10c, Vegas Pro again bugged out! I erased all trace of Vegas then just installed the downloaded version 10C using the key supplied from the Disc upgrade.

    Vegas Pro Version 10c works a treat and again is stable, it is basically an advanced version of Movie Studio 10 and gives a few more features and more control over the video editing and as it has a '64 bit' option, I can now render that HD video with no problems. Rendering the same 7 minute HD video in 64 bit also provides a speed boost of around 15%. For this price, the upgrade is worth it if you're looking for a few more features/ control/ trying to render HD.

    The supplied and downloaded DVD Architect authoring program clashes with Vegas Pro! So I uninstalled that, as I mainly upload to the internet, the DVD disc authoring is not really a huge issue for me.

    PROS: More control and more features, very stable when working, if you run a 64 bit OS with lots of memory and a fast PC then this is definitely worth it.

    Price, upgrade disc is £107, plus a copy of Movie Studio on its own is around £32 = £140.00. (Direct from Sony, the full program is about £545.00, upgrade is around £160 -£330 depending what programs you have.)

    [Alternative competitor is Adobe Premiere CS5 priced at around £750.00. Around half if you are a student/ have kids in school/ college that 'want' to use it.]

    CONS: Very buggy when trying to get it to work, Sony must try harder to solve their own conflicting programs.

    Lack of training/ reading material. 500 page manual on the disc as pdf file! (I have Movie Studio Platinum Suite which included a DVD with basic show and tell instructions which was very useful and applies to Sony Vegas Pro.)

    The Creative Cow website and Youtube have some helpful videos otherwise you have to buy a book from the Sony site which is expensive due to delivery and USA import tax+ handling fees but you can download a training video for intermediate to advanced training for a fair price £55 (compared to adobe around £80 but adobe also has printed books and there are also many cheaper third-party books on their software, check amazon. ;) )

    (n.b. I run windows 7 64 bit on an i7 with 12 gigs of memory.)
