I have been using premiere cs4 since its release till now. However it is becoming very sluggish when editing 4K video so it's time to move to a more modern platform. I'm looking for something I can get for under $500 one time fee.
I usually shoot multi cam video interview. I also have audio recorded separately on an audio recorder.
I need the editor to
- split stereo into two mono tracks because I mic different people with left and right channel
- play audio clip slightly faster or slower (i.e. stretch) to sync with camcorder audio since the two machines have slightly different sampling rate
- export to 720p or 1080p for youtube
- have audio compression effect to limit audio dynamic range
- basic video and audio transitions
- basic color correcting between different camcorders
- very stable and doesn't crash often
I think these are very basic requirements and all NLE should be able to handle them, right?
So what's a good NLE to invest in (both money and learning)? I'm currently using windows 8.1 and eventually will move to win 10. I have an i7 4790 processor, 32G RAM, and a lowly nvidia GeForce GTX650 video card. But I will consider buying a faster video card if necessary.
Vegas pro? Lightworks? Davinci resolve? Suggestions on which one to pick?
