For a novice how hard is the learning curve for Lightworks vs Sony Vegas Pro?

Brian Drysdale January 25th, 2015 03:17 PM

Re: Lightworks V12 tri platform NLE released
 
Having used both they've got pretty similar learning curves, they just have different paradigms. Having said that, I got up and going faster with Lightworks, it really comes down to how individual people like working. I feel that Lightworks has a cleaner interface and less cluttered than Vegas.

Vegas is better at audio than Lightworks, but Lightworks is better at long form and narrative editing, this sort of reflects their backgrounds..

Brian Drysdale January 27th, 2015 11:03 AM

Re: Lightworks V12 tri platform NLE released
 
Here's a quick start guide for Lightworks which gives the basics. There are different methods for carrying out operations, so you can use the mouse, keyboard, control console (be it the Lightworks or third party) or a combination of these. The layout is also flexible allowing the bins, viewers, timelines etc to be arranged to personal taste.

Any chance you're working on h265 support? Just got the NX1 and have to convert footage to edit. Thanks.

Chris

Brian Drysdale March 24th, 2015 05:16 PM

Re: Lightworks release date
 
I'm just a Lightworks user.

I guess once MainConcept provide support for H265, Editshare will consider supporting it, I don't think it's an option in the MainConcept SDK currently being used. There is another Lightworks build due once the current maintenance beta is released. There has been a number of announced features that are due in the version 12 builds, at present the V12.0 introduces the tri platform capability, the content manager and colour correction improvements, amongst other things.

You can put a request for H265 in the Lightworks forum.

Brian Drysdale March 27th, 2015 11:05 AM

Re: Lightworks release date
