There are three versions of VEGAS Movie Studio: basic version, Platinum, and Suite. The program isn’t free, but it does offer a free 30-day trial version.
It has the same UI as VEGAS Pro, a professional-quality video editor, but trims down on some of its more advanced features to offer a reduced price.
It is an entry-level video editing program. I have not received any payment or requests from MAGIX (who acquired VEGAS in 2016) to create this review and have no reason to deliver anything but my complete and honest opinion about the product. My goal in writing this VEGAS Movie Studio review is to let you know whether or not you are the kind of user who will benefit from using the program. I understand what it means to learn a new video editing program from scratch, and I have a good sense of the quality and features you should expect from video editing software at various price points. After teaching myself how to use professional quality editors such as Final Cut Pro (Mac only), VEGAS Pro, and Adobe Premiere Pro, I have had the opportunity to test out a variety of programs that catered to newer users as a reviewer for SoftwareHow. Video editing started out as a hobby for me about eight months ago and has since grown into something I do professionally to complement my writing. The pricing structure for the program has changed and we’ve updated that part. The latest version is VEGAS Movie Studio 16 while the content of this review was initially made based on version 14. Note that this post has been revamped for freshness and accuracy. A Detailed Review of VEGAS Movie Studio You can watch the 30-second demo video (below) I made using VEGAS Movie Studio just to get a feel of its output, or you can visit the official site to try out the latest version. The cheapest version of Movie Studio does far less than comparable video editors, while the most expensive version doesn’t do quite enough. I’ve had the pleasure of reviewing a multitude of excellent video editors at similar price points (see the “Alternatives” section below), and feel Movie Studio doesn’t stack up against the competition at its retail price point. In my opinion, the effects and advanced features are what make VEGAS Pro a professional quality video editor - and it’s one of Movie Studio’s biggest weaknesses.Īs a standalone piece of software, there are many reasons to be impressed with VEGAS Movie Studio, but it doesn’t exist in a vacuum. It does an excellent job at imitating the UI and workflow of the professional version, but many of the greatest strengths of VEGAS Pro are not present in VEGAS Movie Studio. VEGAS Movie Studio is the baby brother to VEGAS Pro.
