Hi Brett Cole,

I am all for free speech, but this forum is for access to help, not propaganda.

If you have a problem with the software, we can attempt to help you with it. If you prefer a different program for your needs – use it.

Personally I have always found the Vega’s layout unintuitive and tricky to work with for me. I can use it if I need to, but I do have my preference for PPro. I use FCP almost daily and still prefer PPro. I guess that’s why there is choice.

It’s a shame you chose to complain on a space where you could be banned for venting.

– JB

Personally, I’d like to hear what the inadequacies are, for I’ve always felt the same about Vegas, and definitely Media Composer. I’ve used all 3, and PPro feels the best to me. Problems with it? Sure, what software doesn’t? But Adobe has always been pretty good about jumping on issues, and most issues are machine or user specific anyway.

However, I’d never think to jump on a Vegas forum and spout off without providing any specifics – unless , of course, I was simply marketing.

Just shows that if Premiere is the worst then the other Adobe products must be awesome eh?

Not sure whether that rant even deserves a reply, but here goes: I’ve used Edit*, AVID, and PPro over the years. There are very few ways you can create editing software based on a timeline and keep it intuitive to use. The differences? Features, shortcut keys, pop-up modes, etc.. This is what makes the different packages, well…different.

In all my experience I haven’t found one to be appreciably different from the other, except for the above. Either I like the way I can work with it (Edit* – YES, AVID – NO, PPro – YES), and the way I have developed my workflow. Either you haven’t read the manuals, or you’re looking for some sort of magical, “where’s the plugin for that” software that does for you what you can’t do for yourself, with a little work. Good luck in the fast food industry.

I’m sorry, this rant is totally bogus. Can you spell T-R-O-L-L?

This past March 1, after 10 years, I felt forced to drop Vegas Pro and switched to Premiere Pro CS5. Yes, there was a learning curve, as was to be expected.

If the OP has actually tried to use PPro, there is no indication of such an attempt in his post. Just ranting.

Yes, Vegas has some helpful methods that I miss. It’s audio tools are second to none (for an NLE). However, PPro has one advantage–it works! Vegas was getting bogged by all the bell and whistles they kept tacking on, year after year.

Vegas could be a dream also, but the fact is it isn’t! None of the NLEs I’ve seen are perfect.
