Vegas Pro 17 versions

Doug-Wilson wrote on 4/10/2020, 8:44 AM

I currently us Pro v16

Looking to upgrade to v17, can't work out path.

Is Vegas Pro 17 Suite the same as Vegas Post?

If it is, why does it have two names and, whats the difference between the two. I can't seem to find what is actually contained in Post.

If it isn't why doesn't Post appear in comparison table.

kind regards

Doug W.

@Doug-Wilson … I hope that the following link to the MAGIX Vegas Pro Comparison page helps you out:

It does show the difference between Post and 365.

As the OP points out, POST does not appear in the comparison table. Gary's comment on what you get is linked above.

@vkmast ... my apologies - you are right. Perhaps the Vegas Pro webpage may assist, though the comparison is a bit clunky in comparing across two websites:

Guys, that has cleared up one of my points, there are two products.

So, am I to understand that Post is v17 with two effects packages (produced by Magix) and bundled together.

Pro 17 Suite is v17 with bundled Boris effects packages.

I use Vegas to produce videos which involve a lot of keying work, in fact most of my productions are all keyed. I want to upgrade to V17 and want the best Keying software, so, I've had a look at Pro 17 Suite and a detailed look at the Boris Key package and that seems very good. I notice in the sales info, there is also a keying option in Post. In order to make a decision I need to know more information (spec or video) on exactly what it does.

Have made over 500 videos with Vegas and want to stick with it.

kind regards Doug W

You may need to note this thread.

Thank you for your links and help. I have one more question. when I upgraded to v16 the NewBlue Elements 3 Ultimate was included in the package. If I upgrade to v17 will the NewBlue package still work with the new version?

vkmast wrote on 4/11/2020, 10:53 AM

@Doug-Wilson it was a bundled extra in the later VP 16 upgrade offers and is not included in my version. Someone else needs to chime in on this. Testing with a trial might reveal? ( @jetdv ?)

michael-harrison wrote on 4/11/2020, 11:05 AM

@Doug-Wilson most likely it won't work with 17. The way the extras are bundled and licensed results in them not working with any other version.

System 1:

Windows 10
i9-10850K 10 Core
128.0G RAM
Nvidia RTX 3060 Studio driver [most likely latest]
Resolution        3840 x 2160 x 60 hertz
Video Memory 12G GDDR5

 

System 2:

Lenovo Yoga 720
Core i7-7700 2.8Ghz quad core, 8 logical
16G ram
Intel HD 630 gpu 1G vram
Nvidia GTX 1050 gpu 2G vram

My NewBlue_VEGAS_Movie_Studio_14_Suite_Complete_1_0_0_0 included in VMS 14 show all up in my VPro 17 and only 2 FX's are not activated for that program. Cannot say anything about NewBlue Elements 3 Ultimate included in VPro 16.

Elements 3 Ultimate will work in later versions of Vegas. It is a full retail package with a full retail serial number.

 

The Movie Studio 14 bundle will only work in Movie Studio 14. The Vegas Pro 14 bundle will only work in Vegas Pro 14.

Thanks for clarifying @jetdv

Hello, I've downloaded and installed the trial version of Vegas 17 Post together with Effects & Image packages. The Effects & Image packages work stand alone, how do I access them from within Vegas?
