Dear Community,

The VEGAS team has worked relentless. You can see the results in our second update for VEGAS Pro 16.

You have a lot to read. This is why we just want to say: Thank you for your continuously support and feedback!

We hope you like it the new update. Let us know in our general discussion thread.

You can download the build 307 now at: http://rdir.magix.net/?page=LZAEY3PYK07J

New Features

  • A dialog box warns the user that the Main Timeline storyboard cannot be altered until it is updated to be in sync with the main timeline

  • Replacing media in the Main Storyboard timeline now updates the project timeline

Mathias
