You’re all going to want this one.

The Layer dimensionality Plugin is awesome.

The Lab Color Space and especially Color match are excellent and for me probably worth the upgrade price alone.

Plus throw in masking of FX – no more extra track workarounds.

Shape Masking Tools looks very useful, I guess I use a lot of masks.

Project Media Tagging looks useful, maybe now I will get organized.

I haven’t tried the project interchange yet, but if it works it is going to kick some butt.

This is one sweet update!

Let’s hope it is actually stable and has usable CUDA rendering. I spent over $500 for a NVIDIA card I cannot take full advantage of.

With all the added features, they are indeed thorough, extensive
and very impressive. But the number one factor im hoping for is
STABILITY for every Vegas user. Now that would be gold.

SONY DEBUTS NEW TECHNOLOGY AT IBC

AMSTERDAM – Sept. 7, 2012 [IBC Show – The Elicium, Hall 12 stand 12.A10] – Sony Creative Software, a leading global provider of professional editing and authoring applications, will offer show attendees a sneak peek of Vegas Pro 12, the soon-to-be released version of their award winning NLE, along with Sound Forge Pro Mac, the first version of this popular digital audio editor designed exclusively for the OS X platform.

In addition to these technology previews, demonstrations will be provided for SpectraLayers, the newly released audio waveform editing software, and DoStudio, the Blu-ray Disc™ encoding and authoring application.

•64-bit Audio Plug-ins – NEW
The updated plug-ins include the four Noise Reduction 2.0 plug-ins (Audio Restoration, Click and Crackle Removal, Clipped Peak Restoration, and Noise Reduction), along with Acoustic Mirror, Zplane élastique Pro timestretch, and Wave Hammer.

•Project Interchange- NEW
Import and export a wide range of project files to and from Vegas Pro 12. The built-in software can convert between the native .veg file and AAF for Avid ProTools 10, XML for Apple Final Cut Pro 7, Final Cut Pro X (export only), DaVinci Resolve 8, and .prproj for Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 and After Effects CS6.

•Smart Proxy Workflow- NEW
Create high-performance, edit-friendly Smart Proxy clips in the Project Media view, to achieve faster playback on a wider variety of hardware. Media will automatically and dynamically switch from original to proxy based on the Preview playback settings.

Quickly categorize your media with customizable tags.

I’ve only spent a couple of hours with it, maybe 3. It did not crash, not even once. But then neither is my install of 11 crashing. I don’t know why.

We will see.

Hey Steve,
Like Jeff I have been with it for a few hours. It has been totally stable. I have even been using some JVC 4K footage with no problems.
Again, like Jeff I have had no problems with SVP11 either.
