We were able to do a much more work-flow optimized user interface in CD Architect 5 that we were not able to do in Vegas, being a general purpose tool.
Also, some of the new features in CD Architect 5 that are not in Vegas 3 include:
- Smart track reordering
- Import Sound Forge® regions as tracks; markers as indices
- Separately dockable Playlist/Tracklist
- CD emulation mode (unmute fades)
- PQ list printing
- CD image file rendering
- Audio clipping detection
- Pause time indication and editing
- Real-time DirectX® event effects
- Supprt for drives with buffer underrun protection
- Timeline event and track locking
- PQ subcode extraction from CDs
