MAGIX Video Pro X3 is a video editing solution geared towards the unique requirements of ambitious and professional users.
The multi-award-winning editing suite features an unrivaled range of powerful tools for detailed video and audio editing. Improved layout and performance guarantee an effective workflow. Innovative functions, and the accumulation of years of expert experience in the field of software development guarantee professional results in perfect sound and vision.

Professional Video Editing - New Efficient 3 and 4 Point Cut
Thanks to the 3-point cut function in Magix Video Pro X3, it's much easier to insert video clips into the timeline. Users simply specify where in the arrangment the clip should be inserted and determine a start marker for the file they want to import. The computer then automatically calculates the cut points and fills in the gaps in the timeline precisely. Innovative 4-point cut is one of the new features in Magix Video Pro X3. By assigning in and out points in the source monitor and the timeline, clips can be inserted into sections automatically via timestretching.

MultiCam Editing Function
In MultiCam editing mode, footage from up to nine different cameras recording the same event such as a wedding, concert, or a theatre performance can be synchronised. Editing is intuitive and the perspective can be changed in real time with a simple mouse-click. Absolutely unique on the market: Magix Video Pro X3 finally makes time-consuming and manual synchronisation of video footage using visual and audio cues a thing of the past. The Multicam editing function automatically synchronises video objects using their audio material. The audio tracks are compared based on similarity by using simple acoustic cues such as the clap of a clapperboard.
New Full Stereo3D Support

Magix Video Pro X3 features a complete Stereo 3D workflow. Stereoscopic footage from personal 3D camera systems and all standard Stereo 3D camcorders can be imported into the open timeline of Magix Video Pro X3 with ease. The 3D footage is then synchronised and aligned automatically. If desired, the image offset can also be animated manually and via keyframes in order to compensate for unwanted visual effects. The program's options for 3D post production are just as extensive as those for editing 2D material: numerous stereo fades and a combination 2D/3D program monitor allow users to edit 3D footage just as quickly and efficiently as 2D material. The program offers extensive options for exporting the finished 3D movie, for example, as a side-by-side or anaglyph video in all standard codecs. The movie can also be burned to Blu-ray Disc or posted on YouTube using the direct uploading function.

New Effect masks
To use video effects even more flexibly, MAGIX Video Pro X3 supports masks that allow effects to be applied to selected areas. This enables you to easily select individual image sections and create selective blurs, artistic color accents, or esthetic distortions.

3D Title Effects
The integrated Magix 3D Maker transforms any text and shape into modern 3D graphics and animations. A wide range of designs and templates in different styles, plus intuitive real-time editing and easy-to-use tools ensure convincing results. With Magix Video Pro X3 it's easy to create dynamic title animations, theme-based intros and outros, elaborate image objects as well as chapter and DVD menu titles.

Timestretching
In Magix Video Pro X3, you can change the length of your video and audio objects simply by stretching and dragging with the mouse. Audio objects maintain their original pitch.
Improved Audio Editing For Broadcast Quality

Magix Video Pro X3, which is based on Samplitude's high-end audio engine, meets professional audio editing standards. Many broadcast-quality effects like DeClipping, DeNoiser, DeHisser, equaliser, compressor, Stereo FX, reverb, pitchshifting, and more help you optimise your audio tracks. These can now also be exported individually in Magix Video Pro X3.

Real-time Audio Mixer
Magix Video Pro X3 includes a real-time mixer with a master effects section. Besides the effects in the audio object (reverb/echo, timestretch/resample, Surround, etc.), a separate effects rack with equaliser, reverb/echo, compressor as well as plug-ins can be used in every mixer track.

Sample-precise Audio Editing
The 1/25 second raster in video editing programs is often too rough for audio editing. Magix Video Pro X3 features sample-exact audio object editing (e.g. 1/48,000 s) for precise cuts, transitions, and video image synchronisation.

Efficient Workflow - New Preview Rendering
To enable smooth and efficient video editing at all times, Magix Video Pro X3 supports preview rendering for selected areas. This allows performance-heavy areas in the arrangment to be calculated quickly and smoothly.

New Revised User Interface With A Modern Design
The user interface has been modernised graphically and now includes clearly laid-out dialogs. With its screen design, Magix Video Pro X3 meets its goal of enabling the fastest possible workflow: functions such as the recording dialogue are even faster and more intuitive.

Improved Edit AVCHD Video In Its Native Environment
Magix Video Pro X3 enables native editing of AVCHD recordings. Thanks to the native integration of the AVCHD format, Video Pro X2 is able to display a real-time preview of the recordings during editing. The original format remains unchanged and quality is not affected. New in Video Pro X3: Footage in 50 and 60p can now also be imported, edited, and exported.

New Import Dialogue For Memory Cards
Now it's even easier to import footage from video DSRLs and camcorders that record on tapeless storage media (P2, DVCPRO, AVC-Intra) into Magix Video Pro X3. The import dialogue offers filter functions, an automatic sorting function for footage and a preview function even prior to transferring the data, thus enabling individual file management even during import and a more clearly laid-out editing workflow.

New Smart Rendering For AVCHD
When exporting projects including AVCHD material, only those clips will be recalculated that were edited by adding titles or effects. All other files are used directly without the need for recalculation. This reduces rendering times when burning AVCHD or Blu-ray Discs by up to 90%.

Improved Intelligent Mouse Mode
The different mouse modes allow you to quickly close gaps in the arrangement. With a single click, all subsequent objects can be selected and moved on one or all tracks. Functions such as timestretching, trimming, and audio scrubbing can be carried out intuitively with a simple mouse-click.

Advanced Search For Gaps
To detect undesired black areas between clips, Magix Video Pro X3 includes a special function to search for gaps. Simply start a search and the program will list all gaps in the arrangement, which can then be selected and edited.

Multi-processor Support
Magix Video Pro X3 uses the advantages of the most modern processor architecture to shorten rendering times of complex projects on multi-processor and multi-core systems. HDV material is scaled uniformly on up to eight CPU cores to produce results faster than ever before.

Exchange With Other Post-production Programs
The integrated alpha channel support of AVI files in Magix Video Pro X2 enables import of sequences from compositing programs like Jahshaka or After Effects. Photoshop files with multiple layers can also be imported directly into Magix Video Pro X3 projects.
Flexible User Interface

Magix Video Pro X3 offers a flexible user interface which can be adjusted to any working situation thanks to savable window layouts. Both preview monitors can be enlarged to fullscreen and moved around, e.g. to use multiple monitors more effectively. Even the project folder, the timeline, and the Media Pool can be scaled and moved as separate windows.

Customisable Keyboard Shortcuts
You can specify the keyboard shortcuts for all of Magix Video Pro X3's menu functions however you like. This allows you to adjust, change, and complement the keyboard shortcuts according to your needs and workflows. This feature is especially useful for users switching from other video editing programs. New We have improved the shortcut presets with even easier and more intuitive commands for quick and efficient workflows.
Synchronisation With External Devices

Magix Video Pro X3 can be synchronised with external audio devices via MIDI Machine Control (MMC) and can be used as slave or master. Receive MMC commands (slave): Magix Video Pro X3 follows jog shuttle operations, fast forward and rewind commands of external devices. Magix Video Pro X3 receives the current playback position of the device and displays it as an additional blue cursor in the timeline. Send MMC commands (Master): Magix Video Pro X3 can be used as Master for controlling the MIDI environment. The external device follows the time position every time the playback cursor moves to a certain position within the arrangement.

Comparison Mode In The Source Monitor
Magix Video Pro X3 features a comparison mode, which allows you to check your video material before and after editing. This way, you can always keep track of your effects editing.

Recordings From Different Sources
Magix Video Pro X3 supports a wide range of recording sources such as camcorders (DV, HDV, AVCHD, DVD, hard drive, memory card), webcams, TV cards, screen capturing, and USB video converters.

Screen Capturing
The main function of screen capturing is to create tutorials or screencasts: with the screen capturing function in Video Pro X3, screen contents from currently playing programs or online media can be captured easily and then compressed to save space or used loss-free in AVI format.

Improved Compatibility With All Common Video Formats
Magix Video Pro X3 is compatible with all standard video formats. Users can choose between standard SD and HD formats such as DV, HDV, or AVCHD (lite) and professional camcorder formats such as DVCPRO, AVC-Intra, NXCAM, or XDCAM.

AVCHD Lite Support
Complete support of the new AVCHD substandard for camcorders and digital photo cameras. AVCHD lite supports video recordings up to 720p and may be imported without difficulty into Video Pro X3 for further editing. The processed results may be burned onto AVCHD disc or Blu-ray and played back on Blu-ray players.

XDCAM File Import
Magix Video Pro X3 supports importing and editing of professional XDCAM material without the need for additional upgrades.
