alephdialloI think Kdenlive is one of the best because it's just like Vegas Pro. I don't think I can sentence mix in it. I'll try doing that later.
0RudolphXBest Sony Vegas alternative. Too bad it has only 1 Windows release currently and it's still in developement
2shaythe program is prone to unexpected crashes.

Comments about Shotcut as a Alternative to MAGIX Vegas Pro
Shotcut is an AMAZING video editing software. I used Vegas 16 and later Shotcut. The workflow is very similar. Great alternative to Vegas.
1DavidWorkflow is similar enough to Vegas that it's relatively easy to get accustomed to meanwhile it provides core features like composite blends and keyframe animation. Development is active so it continues to advance.
5Wow, it's has the same workflow as sony vegas, not that much memory usage, very fast (I tried openshot, lol what a joke, it was terrible to do edit on it, and I was at 8GB/8GB memory ...)
5shayit functions very similarly to vegas, but the preview is laggy and some effects will freeze the program.
0DaVinci Resolve combines the world’s most advanced color corrector with professional multi-track editing, so now you can edit, color correct, finish and deliver all from one system!.

Comments about DaVinci Resolve as a Alternative to MAGIX Vegas Pro
This really better than Sony Vegas
1yuriykazExcellent! You have a free and a paid version. Good alternative, has got many useful features.
0MB85_STUDIOPick a reason why you want to report DaVinci Resolve, Try to provide any extra info that could be relevant, like links to more info and similar. The program does not work properly on Linux. Very few video formats are accepted. You have to convert your recorded videos into a format suitable for DaVinci Resolve. This is annoying and ultimately costs more storage space. I prefer to use Kdenlive on Linux.
-1shaythe free download requires an obscene amount of personal information to be inputted; you can put bogus information but it's still very intrusive. after downloading and installing on linux mint, it looked like it was not compatible with the os at all; it wouldn't run.
0Does not support MP4 or MVC

Comments about Olive Video Editor as a Alternative to MAGIX Vegas Pro
Resner AlsoResnerOlive is currently not very feature packed, but is still a great editor and is much more stable than Vegas or Kdenlive.
1foss, lightweight, versatile
0shayby far the closest in functionality to vegas and after effects, including a graph editor, a precomp function ("nested sequences") and similar keyframing. however it is missing layer blend modes, the rich text editor is broken, and renders are lossy, even in .avi format.
0Very "fast" compared to other alternatives
-1 OpenShot is a free and open-source video editor for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Chrome OS, designed to be easy to use and quick to learn.
OpenShot Features
Comments about OpenShot as a Alternative to MAGIX Vegas Pro
Hardly any features. When I try to zoom into the timeline, it just unzooms. Extremely annoying. Forced to switch to Kdenlive!
2shayopenshot is not capable of the same kind of keyframing and effects as vegas. it is functional for video editing but is more useful for slideshows. a vegas user might find it hard to do their work in this program
0RemovedUserOpenShot is not a good alternative. It needs Inkscape and Blender for text, chroma key dosen't work... It's an mess!
Not recommended.
0Laggy and clunky GUI. only recommended for 12 year olds trying to start a youtube channel
0Awful light mode, sloppily working chroma key effect, confusing way to move images. Overall, OpenShot isn't really good.
