Vegas Pro 8 – What Boris S/W can be used

[Peter Mcauley]

Hi,

The best bet is to install the trial version and see how this works for you. You cannot directly use BCC in the Vegas timeline but you can use RED, which contains most of the filters in the BCC 4 package. If you need filters from BCC 5 in Vegas, then you’ll have to install BCC 5 into RED and access the BCC 5 filters from within RED on the Vegas timeline.

I hope this helps.

Peter.

Peter,thanks for your replies to both my posts. What about after effects. Can this be used with Vegas via / through RED as well?

[Peter Mcauley]

Hi Anand,

Yes, you can use the BCC AE (after effects) filters in RED within Vegas. Kind of like having a plug-in within the plug-in.

Cheers,

Peter.

Just a few more details please..

Windows Vista 64
Sony Vegas Pro 8
Intel Quad Core Extreme Qx 9650
Nvidia GeForce 9800GX2
8 GB PC2-8500

1) Which version of BCC and AE should I download for trial?

2) How do I add these 2 and also Red + Blue to the shoppiing cart so that I can maximise any bundle savings? And also which versions should I be adding?

You could email me as well ..

Cheers,
Anand

BCC (Boris Continuum Complete) and FEC (Final Effects Complete) will both plug into RED. That will give you about 300 special effects filters. You’ll need to use the After Effects version of both products and install them into RED.

You might want to call in to the sale line as I really don’t have any helpful information about purchasing product. Ask for Kevin – he’s very knowledgeable and will work with you to get the best possible bundle deal.

I hope this helps.

Cheers,

Peter.
