=Notable Versions=
This section goes over some of the more "notable" versions of Vegas released over the years. Depending on a user's workflow (i.e. if they want [[Wax]] integration, [[OFX]] support, etc.) they would want to choose particular versions over others.
 
As of August 1st 2025, The current version of Vegas is {{22}}. Vegas 23 is expected to release in September 2025.
 
==Sound Forge Vegas 1.0==
This was the first version of Vegas (not including Betas). At this point, it was only an audio editor.
 
==Sony Vegas 4.0==
This was the first version of Vegas with [[3D Source Alpha]].
 
==Sony Vegas 5.0==
A staple version of the early days with it being the editor of choice of many modern players. While rarely seen today in modern workflows, 5.0 is a popular choice for "throwback matches" where older software is encouraged.

==Sony Vegas 6.0==

==Audio Effects breaking when moving from Vegas 19 to 21==
If you upgraded from Vegas 19 to 21, you may notice that certain audio effects, namely Distortion and Vibrato, will cease to exist. This is caused by a faulty DLL and can be fixed by moving the V19 versions into the V21 folder. Specifically, "C:\Program Files (x86)\VEGAS\Shared Plug-Ins\Audio_x64".
