Yes, unfortunately Mocha VEGAS is no longer included. The version that was included in VEGAS Pro 22 is host-locked. This means it can only be used in VP22. VEGAS Pro 23 continues to support Mocha Pro.

That is very sad news. Mocha Pro is £590, there doesnt appear to be an option to buy or license the cut down Vegas version. I'll try the VP23 trial but its going to have to be stunning to make me want to upgrade.

That's a shame. I was hoping that the original inclusion of Mocha Vegas indicated a close relationship with Borisfx that would lead to others of their effects working better with Vegas. The removal says otherwise

The loss of the Mocha Vegas package is unfortunate. I feel your pain.

@VEGASDerek

Why did this happen?

That is above my pay grade. I really do not know the details of why we are no longer able to provide this feature. I would have to assume no deal could be reached to continue to provide this feature. It needs to be something that both sides can agree to.

@VEGASDerek

Thank you.

Money talks.

There is a long tradition of including special third party plug-ins in Vegas then just as one becomes reliant on it an upgrade makes it not available. Yes I know the old version can still be used but that's no way to organise a workflow. I had hoped with Mocha Vegas carrying on from 21 to 22 that we were seeing a new relationship but sadly no. I dont consider these special cut down versions to be trial versions. They provide just the right level of usefulness for users like me. It happened with Newblue Titler - I had to buy the full version which for years I regretted. I'm OK with Titler pro 7 now, after all there isnt much alternative.
Obviously some payment is necessery. I would be happy to pay something for Vegas Pro but cant justify Mocha Pro. I suppose Boris just doesnt want the hassle of supporting the special version.
On the plus side I dont need to purchase the VP23 Suite! Nothing there I need.

Also very disapointed in that. The question is, will it still work though?

Maybe if it's a standalone version, but what about the subscription? If i degrade now to basic version of Vegas Pro when renewing, will the Mocha Vegas still work in Vegas 21/22 ?
