Review by Zen

This software comes with some helpful tutorials that are very useful in learning the software. It took very little time to download and set up compared to some other video editing software. It also does not pause or crash like my Pinnacle software or the generic Windows movie making software.

Simple mode is not designed for major video editing like transitions and text editing. It’s made for cutting your clips to size. The advanced mode is useful and provides the major video editing features. The features like trim start, trim end and split are useful as they bring down the editing time significantly over some more basic software. Being able to view all components of the video like audio, video, music track really helps sync the video to the music beats.

Some simple features are intuitive and easy to use to make a quick video. Speeding up a shot, being able to crop the video frame, you can add transitions to video, add text and transitions to text, filters that change picture quality and add vignettes make a simple video sparkle. I have not yet used all the other more advanced features in ACID music studio and SoundForge that allow you to edit audio and music track and record high-def sound on your PC.

Overall, I like the software as it’s non-glitchy and easy to use with many features for the amateur video editor.
