VEGAS Pro 22: Empowering Creators with AI

VEGAS Creative Software has launched VEGAS Pro 22, a major upgrade to its flagship video/audio editing software. The new version introduces AI-assisted features designed to streamline workflows and enhance the content creation experience.

Behind the Scenes

• AI Text-Based Editing allows users to edit a transcript, and the software automatically adjusts the project timeline to match those edits, speeding up the editing process for dialogue-based projects.

• AI Dehaze, Sharpen, and Smoothen tools analyze video and make adjustments to create clearer, crisper, or more stylized looks.

• AI Auto Reframe automatically reframes video when the final render size doesn't match the original aspect ratio, ensuring the most important objects remain centered.

• Powerful audio-based tools include Multicam Audio Sync, Beat Detection, and Tempo Detection, making it easier to synchronize and edit in time with music.

1. VEGAS Pro ($19.99/mo, $95.88/year, or $199 for a perpetual license)
