So to make up for the high cost, video makers have the option to download a patch (or keygen, depending on the download). A vast majority of video makers aren't able to pay that much cash. The software costs a rounded price of at least US$400.00. Vegas Pro is a common resource for AGK makers, mostly because of its superior features. The first version of Vegas developed by MAGIX was released on September 2016. On May 24, 2016, Sony announced that it sold Vegas (and most of its 'Creative Software' line) to MAGIX, who would continue supporting and developing the software. Vegas 13 entirely dropped support for Windows Vista. Vegas 12 dropped support for all 32-bit machines. Since Sony Vegas 11, support for Windows XP has been dropped. Sony Vegas is designed to run on Windows XP and subsequent operating systems.

In April 2007, Sony along with AMD jointly demonstrated a 64-bit version of Vegas running on 64-bit Vista. Some of Vegas's codecs are native or built-in. Third-party codecs are supported but it can be difficult to see which codec is being used to play back an AVI. With version 8.0, Vegas now reads MJPEG AVIs usually from video setting on digital still cameras With prior versions of the software, installing an MJPEG codec sometimes but not always fixed the problem. Master output effects can also be controlled and manipulated over time by the use of Master Bus track automation envelopes. Effects can be applied at any stage of the visual signal flow event level, track level, and output level effects, much like reverb, delay and flange audio effects are applied in a digital audio system, like Pro Tools, Cubase or Sonar. Much of the visual effects processing in Vegas follows an audio-like paradigm. Vegas features real-time multitrack video and audio editing on unlimited tracks, resolution-independent video sequencing, complex effects and compositing tools, 24-bit/192 kHz audio support, VST and DirectX plug-in effect support, and Dolby Digital surround sound mixing. Originally developed as an audio editor, it eventually developed into an NLE for video and audio from version 2.0. Vegas Pro (formerly branded as Sony Vegas) is a professional non-linear editing system (NLE) originally published by Sonic Foundry, now owned and run by MAGIX.
