CS4 user has jumped ship to Vegas…using both…what are the limitations of Vegas? Benefits?
Hi All,
I can’t hang with Premiere anymore….quite frankly it has always made my life a living hell 🙂 lol and I have always heard that Vegas interface is more intuitive.
That said, the Vegas interface seems entirely foreign to me so I have both.
I am told that Vegas is not nearly the tool that CS4 is but I am also really into NLE’s that actually WORK and Adobe has far too many issues for me to troubleshoot. I’ve been battling it and upgrading and upgrading computers for months and I’m over it.
Thanks for any thoughts.
Best,
Todd

Hi Todd,
Maybe post some more specific questions that we can help you with.
With that being said, Vegas is platform agnostic so you don’t need/benefit (from) hardware acceleration.
The 32 bit floating point option does not always work like it should (or how you think it should). There is a bunch of information on this from Glenn Chan.
It integrates well with Cinescore, SoundForge and DVD Architect.
Scripting is one of the greatest things you could ask for in an NLE: Take a look at Vasst.com for UltimateS Pro or Jetdv.com for Excalibur and then there are tons of free scripts as well.
Pngs tend to work better than jpegs on the timeline.
Take the time to learn ProType Titler.
Lots of control over render settings.
What else do you have specific questions on?
