When shooting with a Sony XDCAM camera and Sony Wireless Adaptor, low-resolution proxies are uploaded to the cloud directly after capture, ready for download to a PC running Vegas Pro. The new Proxy-first workflow lets editors start work while a shoot is still in progress at a different location. There’s a new Loudness Meters panel to help users comply with US legislation about the volume of adverts.

Vegas Pro Connect isn't the only new feature that's designed primarily for professional users. We’re glad to see that it’s easy to delete these files on the Windows hard disk or the iPad to free up space.
We also found it useful at home to be able to view works in progress on an iPad on the sofa, although we’d have liked a full-screen playback mode for a more casual viewing experience. This is a neat way to share projects in professional environments with minimal effort, and with no risk of files being copied and shared illicitly – videos aren’t accessible except via the app. These markers might be out of sync if the project has been edited since it was synchronised, but that’s forgivable.

After synchronising, the video can be played offline and markers can be added that synchronise as soon as the app and software find each other again on the local network.
#VEGAS PRO 16 EDIT REVIEW 720P#
There’s an option in the Windows software called Prepare for Vegas Pro Connect, whereupon the timeline (or loop region) is rendered at 720p and made available to the app. The accompanying iPad app acts as a remote control, commenting system and offline playback device It would be even better with colour-coded markers that could be filtered according to who added them. It’s an elegant system that allows a collaborator to look over an editor’s shoulder and make frame-accurate comments. Both the conventional and gesture-based controls include the ability to add markers, which appear instantly on the Windows software’s timeline. It’s also possible to undo, redo and arm the software for audio recording. By carefully following the instructions in the online Help, we were up and running in a couple of minutes.Īt its simplest, the app is a wireless remote control for the software’s transport, either using conventional buttons or via a set of gestures that include tap to play, swipe left or right to jump to a marker, two-finger swipe to scroll through the timeline, three-finger swipe for frame-accurate scrolling. It communicates with Vegas Pro over a local network. Vegas Pro Connect is a new iPad app designed to help teams collaborate on projects.

It’s still far from clear how to switch between the proxies and original footage while editing, though. Now it’s applied by default when importing footage with a resolution higher than 1,920x1,080, which is a sensible move for those who will be editing Ultra HD footage. It wasn’t the easiest feature to find, though. Proxy editing was already available in Vegas Pro, delivering smooth previews of demanding video formats by generating lower-resolution copies for use while editing. The new editing modes (bottom-centre) remove the need to remember lots of keyboard shortcuts The Shuffle Tool is new, and provides a quick way to reorder clips. Many of these tools were already available via keyboard shortcuts, but having dedicated buttons makes them easier to find. The latter includes new tools that dictate what happens when timeline objects are adjusted, such as the Time Stretch/Compress Tool that changes the playback speed so a clip automatically fits the desired length. The various buttons that are dotted around the interface have been rearranged, with project management at the top of the screen and editing functions at the bottom.

There's a new Project Archive function that embeds all media, proxy and audio peak files into a single. The dockable panels are now easier to manage, as they only dock when the Ctrl key is held down. There are some interface tweaks that are unlikely to get hearts racing but are welcome nonetheless. Vegas Pro 13 Suite includes Sony's audio editor Sound Forge Pro 11, the fabulous FXhome HitFilm 2 Ultimate compositing and special effects software and more plug-ins and utilities. Vegas Pro 13 adds DVD and Blu-ray authoring, as well as some video and audio plug-ins. Vegas Pro 13 Edit includes the editor only.
Vegas Pro 13 Edit arrives 16 months after version 12, and is available as an upgrade. Most of its competitors have disappeared over the years, and Premiere Pro CC is now only available via subscription. Sony Vegas Pro seems to be the last man standing for amateur enthusiast-level video editing.
