  • Sony Vegas DVD Production Suite
    Resolution 3.7 October 2004 12/10/04 10:35 PM Page 36 review Sony Vegas +DVD Production Suite Audio’s standard-bearing package for the video world has changed hands and undergone a number of refinements. ROB JAMES looks at Vegas V5 and DVD Architect 2 Plus AC-3 Encoder and judges it a cost- effective way to get a postproduction suite. HE MIDDLE GROUND nonlinear editing market is moving on apace. Neatly mirroring Tthe DAW experience, prices are falling and the feature count is rising. Although necessarily there are common factors to all the big players’ packages, there is one wild card that has always managed to go its own way. Adobe’s Premiere, Pinnacle’s Liquid Edition and even the new Canopus Edius all follow the model set down by the phenomenally successful Avid Media Composer to a greater or lesser extent. Vegas Video, on the other hand, began life as Vegas Audio, developed by Sonic Foundry, and these audio roots arguably make for an easier transition to video for people who are more used to audio workstations. For example, there is no twin-screen source-edit window but there is an excellent trimmer. When Sony Pictures Digital Networks bought Sonic Foundry, it was the cause of some consternation among the existing user base because of worries about the future development directions that Sony might impose. This is the first major release since the take-over and should successfully allay any remaining fears and win plenty of new adopters. The standalone editing part of the package, Vegas 5 is now priced at a very reasonable UK£424.68 (+VAT) and includes Boris Graffiti 3.0 LTD for 2D titling.

Sales and operating revenue (sales) decreased 12.9% compared to the previous fiscal year and losses were recorded due to such factors as the slowdown of the global economy, the appreciation of the yen and the decline of the Japanese stock market. An operating loss of ¥227.8 billion was recorded, a deterioration of ¥703.1 billion year on year. Some of the significant factors that caused the year-on-year deterioration in operating income were an approximate ¥279.0 billion impact from the appreciation of the yen against the U.S. dollar and the euro, a ¥125.9 billion impact from deterioration in results at equity affiliates, including Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB (a mobile phone business joint venture), and a ¥53.8 billion deterioration in operating results in the Financial Services segment, mainly due to a significant decline in the Japanese stock market.
