Upgrade to Pro11 or not

[Dave Petteruto]

For what it’s worth—If you don’t need what V11 offers I wouldn’t upgrade now. I’ve been on this forum for several years now and I’ve never seen so many problems posted when a new version of vegas has come out as there are currently. I’m going to wait until the dust settles myself, but that’s just me!

Thanks
Dave P.

I upgraded to 11 from 10, but I am back using 10 because of the GPU acceleration problems (which is the main reason I upgraded). I have the issue sent to Sony Creative Software support, but from their responses it seems that they don’t have a solution yet. I up graded from 9 to 10 with no problems ( I did wait to upgrade until the bugs were worked out of 10) I hope they get 11 working,especially the GPU acceleration because I bought a new video card just for that purpose!

I would recommend you grab a copy of Vegas 11 from now,
But still continue using Vegas 10 until version 11
gets an update or two.
I am still using Vegas 10.0e

I have to agree with everyone else’s comments. If you have the money and can get a cheap upgrade, maybe you should get it now, but keep using 10. I still use 10 on many projects. I’ve gotten around many of my problems with Vegas 11, but with it’s small number of upgrades and NewBlueFX crashing constantly, the actual upgrade for me has been GPU acceleration and little else.

I’ll be ordering the upgrade today (it is the last day for the cheap price) but have no intentions of installing it until all the bugs get worked out.
In the meantime, Pro 10.0e is working just fine for me.

[Steve Rhoden]

True Mike…10.0e is quite ok…When Vegas 11 reaches about
11.0b it should be kicking.

I upgraded from V9 to V11. I’m back using V9.

Knowing what I know now, I would wait for V12!

Cheers,
Bruce

Maybe Sony should rename Vegas Pro 11 to Vegas Backyard 11. A real shame it was released in its sorry state. Yes, some folks have it working, but it seems very situation specific, and not a sturdy all-rounder. I’m back to 10 too. I wonder if they will credit the upgrade to VP12?

[Chris Siers]

Thanks all for your comments. I’ve been more than happy with Vegas so far, but it appears ver 11 has let us down. I think I’ll take your advice and wait till ver 12 comes out next year, unless Sony does improve with it’s current version and then offer us an upgrade at e reduced cost. Once again – thank you – a great forum – learning a lot from it. Chris Siers – Chrisandra Video Productions

All new Vegas releases has always get a bashing lol, but eventually
it steadies out and everyone here will be using it soon comfortably.
