Vegas 6 vs Vegas 5 – The real differences.
Hello, I was just wondering what the big differences is between the two. I read the comparision chart on both but wanted to know the major differences between the two are if it is worth buying 6. I know 6 does HD but I don’t do that at the moment. Audio scrub is another difference i saw.

Regions and markers that occur at the end of rendered file are now adjusted so they occur on the last audio sample of the rendered file. If you’re rendering the loop region only, any region that extends beyond the loop region is adjust so the region end occurs on the last audio sample. This adjustment prevents warning messages when the rendered files are opened in Sound Forge software.Edward Troxel

Nested VEG files is worth the price for me. If you have a lot of media then Media Manager is good. I have hundreds of sound effects that I can catalog. I have them in folders now and that works but media manager is better if you have a lot of stock footage, pictures, sounds and music. I have hundreds of photographs.

Some of my favorites just arrived in the new version (Build 115). Keyboard shortcuts for:
Show/Hide Active Take Names (Ctrl/Shift/I)
Show/Hide Waveforms and frames (Ctrl/Shift/W)
Show/Hide event buttons (Crtl/Shift/C)plus a few more.

I’ve gotten noticably faster renderring on a dual-P3 system. Vegas 6 definately breathed some new life into my aging home system. I like the audio scrub, works flawlessly. After reading about the media manager, may try to get my stuff organized with that. Looks like another smooth Vegas revision with lots of great stuff added!
