Vegas still has some imperfections (which the new team has been working on = for the last couple of years) but it=E2=80=99s timeline puts everyone=E2=80= =99s including FCPx to shame as audio and tracks in Vegas are in world so f= ar beyond what Premiere/Vegas/Avid can do for turnkey edits.

Stephen,

=C2=A0

If I may have a follow up, which version of Vegas?= =C2=A0 It looks like there are 3 different versions OF V17.

Vegas Pro Edit, Vegas Pro, Vegas Pro Suite=

=C2=A0

I'm guessing Pro Edit since the second one adds = DVD stuff it looks, etc.

=C2=A0

Thanks,
Eric

Not sure about the Element 3D question as I=E2=80=99= ve never saved an imported model as preset but I believe presets are just f= or the type of item e.g. textures, models, lights etc. I don=E2=80=99t think there is an entire rig =E2=80=9Cpreset=E2=80=9D that I recall off th= e top of my head.

=C2=A0

I still do my personal editing in Vegas (current Mag= ix Vegas Post Pro V17). They are working hard to get the app back on track = after Sony=E2=80=99s years of neglect and it=E2=80=99s coming along well (it=E2=80=99s finally more stable than Premiere).

=C2=A0

You can export Premiere projects but like any transl= ation it=E2=80=99s going to have it=E2=80=99s limited, it=E2=80=99s really = useful for only simple timelines without effects, titles etc. It=E2=80=99s = really just a variation of XML exports.

Hello,

=C2=A0

For those interested, the cone I was making was for = the Artemis Moon Spacecraft and here's a 7 second sample.=C2=A0 I will = be separating=C2=A0the module later since the booster would be gone by this time in space.=C2=A0=C2=A0https://www.yout= ube.com/watch?v=3DMd3CE57JSLo&feature=3Dyoutu.be

=C2=A0

By way of this sample, I have a couple questions.=C2= =A0 I did use Blender by the way for the cone but I built this model in Ele= ment 3D otherwise (assembled I guess).=C2=A0 I'm having some difficulty saving the model as a preset.=C2=A0 I know the procedure but fo= r some reason it doesn't save ALL components.=C2=A0 Any idea on what co= uld be the solution?

=C2=A0

And a second question, probably not much help here b= ut I used to use Sony Vegas to edit and I have a project from 2012 that act= ually has a feature to export to a premiere=C2=A0file (even saw a youtube video) but for some reason, after exporting the entire thing= , it does not produce the actual premiere file like I see in the tutorial.<= u>

=C2=A0

Incidentally, the old footage I have could prove to = be a cool time lapse thing with me nearly 8 years ago and then current.<= /u>

Appreciate any insight if anyone has some.=
