Someone claims to have already gotten a beta on Youtube (No, I'm not talking to the guys at VASST... but it is in the related videos for the VASST multi-cam sample video)

That video is honestly a lack of professionalism in the form of it's delivery. The keyframing's good, but other than that...

Jack, that video is likely from Sony Vegas Movie Studio 8. If not....it's terrible.
The ProTitler application would have been much smoother, and had better letter reveal. With the Protitler, a character, word, or line can be revealed at whatever pace you wish for.

Quesions:

What does the "32 bit floating point processing" actually mean? Will it make a visible difference if I"m still working in SD miniDV?

"Real time Audio FX" --- does this apply to events now, that is, will I no longer have to render a new file to apply an audio effect to a single event?

Anyone know cost to upgrade from VEgas 6?

Where does it say real-time audio effects? If you are talking about this:

Extensive Audio Effects
Apply over 30 customizable, real-time audio effects. Automate delays, reverbs, EQs and more with envelope control for each parameter. Use over ten automated effects such as Track EQ, Reverb, Chorus, Delay, Noise Gate, and Flange/Wah/Phase. 5.1 DirectX® effects for the master bus include EQ, Dither, and Wave Hammer Surround compression tools.

note that it does not say New!, which suggests that it is the old track level automation. Am I right?

There is a lot of talk about about 32 bit floating at these posts but as Josh Bass asks what does it mean to us mere mortals and what advantage will it have to pictures

if you're not working in DV, it'll make a big difference in your picture quality (for the better, generally) and for compositing, color correction, and other spatial processes, it'll make for better end results in most cases.

That's about all you need to know.

One of the reasons I've kept Premiere Pro up to date is the titler. This will make that more of an issue...

What real world application needs needs more resolution?

This is the most popular cinema projector out there right now

http://www.christiedigital.com/AMEN/Products/christieCP2000.htm

It happens to be what my local bug house uses.

Max res is # 1920 x 1080 @ 24P or 24psf (ie. MPEG-2, MXF-Interop format)
# 2048 x 1080 @ 24P or 48P (DCI-compliant).

Let me tell you Star Wars looked real good at 2048x1080 on the big screen to my eyes.

For the bargain price Sony charges I'm sorry I just don't see the need for more resolution.

some theaters are thinking 4k projection ( landmark theater chain) ....


http://bssc.sel.sony.com/BroadcastandBusiness/minisites/SXRD/index.html

RED is here and it shoots 4k ..
some movies shot in 35mm are scanned at 4k .. so is the theater that is about to spend 100k for a projector going to go with 2k or 4k ?

More resolution need for editing stereo 3D video dual stream HD
in over under - 1920x2060
in side by side - 3840x1080

I don't have RED One, but guys who own this camera interested in 4K resolution,
because Vegas support REDcode raw :)
