Whether you’re working on a small screen or large screen, sometimes you might still want to fully expand the timeline to view all your edits and tracks. If you press F11 on your keyboard, this will hide everything but the timeline. Still not enough? Press Ctrl+F11 and this will hide everything along with the track header area on the left. The timeline now occupies the entire Sony Vegas Pro window. Press Ctrl+F11 to reset everything back to normal.

Sony Vegas: Video Preview Overlays

Some TVs may cut out portions of text or video when being played back. Especially older TVs. To make sure all your text/objects are seen, you can turn on Video Preview Overlays. In the Preview Window, simply click the Overlays button to turn on and toggle through the different overlays. In this case, I’d turn on Safe Areas which works similar to the title/action safe in After Effects. The outer most border marks the area that will be visible on a television screen while the inner most border marks the suggested area for titles. You can adjust the grid spacing using the Action safe area and Title safe area settings on the Video tab in the Preferences.

Sony Vegas: Assign Track Names

Did you know you can assign names to tracks in Vegas Pro? Often overlooked, there’s a small area where you can input text on each track. Simply double-click this blank area called the Scribble Strip and type in any name for that track. Once done, press Enter to save the name. If you don’t see the Scribble Strip, simply expand the track to reveal it.

Sony Vegas: Time Stretch

You can change the duration of an event without changing its contents. Simply hold “Ctrl” while dragging the right or left edge of an event. Stretching the event inwards will speed up the clip while stretching it outwards will slow it down. To preserve the audio while stretching, right click the audio clip and choose” Properties”. From there, you can adjust the audio’s Time stretch/pitch shift.
