Overview
VEGAS Pro is a Windows video editor with a long history among YouTubers and independent editors, now published by Boris FX, the visual-effects plug-in company, under the VEGAS Creative Software brand[11]. VEGAS Pro 23 is the current version[11].
VEGAS combines editing, colour, audio, titles, effects, speech tools and export in one application and is tied into Boris FX’s portfolio, including Mocha Pro tracking, Particle Illusion and CrumplePop audio repair, with Sound Forge, Acid Pro and Optics in the wider ecosystem[11]. Its AI features include automatic reformatting to other aspect ratios, AI Quick Mask, text-based editing, and speech-to-text and text-to-speech; the VEGAS Core Engine uses GPU acceleration[11]. A 15-day free trial is available, and one licence can be used on two computers[11].
VEGAS remains Windows-only, and its pricing was not visible on the product page at review; buyers must check the plans page or checkout[11].
