  What are events

  Posted by Trevor Harris on May 4, 2016 at 3:36 pm

  This is a stupid question but can any one point to a tutorial on events in Vegas Pro. I have come across video events and track events and output events but no clear explanation of what the difference is.

  Regards trevor

  Hi Trevor,

  I think the simple answer is…..when you place a video clip (media) from the Project Media bin to the Timeline, it then becomes an event. It’s Vegas nomenclature.

  Best Regards……George

  [George Dean] “It’s Vegas nomenclature.”

  Yea, it’s confusing… Vegas started out as an audio editor and then added video capabilities so they needed a word that didn’t mean audio or video and they chose “Event”. So those “things” on the timeline are all called Events. Audio Events, Video Events, both referred to generically as Track Events (which can be Audio or Video). Like I said… confusing when other NLE’s all call them Clips!

  So… Events are just Clips by a different name.
