VEGAS Creative Software launches v18 upgrade to VEGAS POST Suite
04/08/2020
VEGAS Creative Software today announced the launch of VEGAS POST Suite, a brand new upgrade to its powerful suite of editing, VFX, compositing and imaging tools for video professionals, editors and VFX artists. With today's announcement, VEGAS Creative Software unveils major upgrades for VEGAS POST Suite that include significant developments with its companion products, VEGAS Effects and VEGAS Image, while leveraging robust new features in the newly-launched VEGAS Pro 18.
The VEGAS POST workflow is centered around the entirely new VEGAS Pro 18, which adds a breadth of new features and major feature enhancements including AI-driven effects, GPU-accelerated workflows, advanced motion tracking, HDR support, and sophisticated color grading tools and plug-ins.
VEGAS Pro 18 now also includes SOUND FORGE Pro 14 which brings professional multi-channel audio editing to your projects. SOUND FORGE Pro integrates tightly with VEGAS Pro enabling users to send audio files directly from the VEGAS Pro timeline into SOUND FORGE Pro to make edits and return to VEGAS Pro where their edits are instantly and automatically updated in the timeline. No other editing solution on the market offers this level of audio editing and sound design capabilities.
Additionally, VEGAS POST Suite 18 will leverage the Company's newly-announced cloud-based media management, file transfer and collaboration capabilities, such as VEGAS Hub and VEGAS Prepare. These capabilities will become available beginning in October 2020 and will be offered initially as free tools for VEGAS POST Suite customers. For more information on VEGAS Pro 18 and the new cloud-based services, please visit https://www.magix.com/us/press/detail/news/vegas-creative-software-launches-vegas-pro-180/.
