What's inside.

  1. 01

    A timeline you already know

    Source and program monitors, three-point editing, every trim mode, and J/K/L dynamic trimming.

  2. 02

    Frame-exact time

    An integer timebase keeps 23.976 and 29.97 drop-frame exact. No drift, no rounding, no mystery frames.

  3. 03

    Its own codecs

    No FFmpeg inside. Native H.264, HEVC, ProRes, VP9, AAC and Opus, with bit-exact decoders.

  4. 04

    Color grading

    Curves, color wheels, HSL secondaries, LUTs, HDR and log workflows, plus scopes to check your work.

  5. 05

    Effects and keyframes

    About 55 video effects and 30 transitions, keyframes with value and velocity graphs, and a linear-light GPU compositor.

  6. 06

    Broadcast-ready audio

    EBU R128 loudness meters, a mixer with automation, and native DSP effects.
