Vegas Pro 12 fx loads on startup of Vegas was created by Robert

Posted 16 Jan 2018 08:52 #1
When I start Vegas Pro 12 and start a new project. I import new video and place it on the edit line. I have to check the FX to see if it kept the FX from the previous edit and delete all to start a new edit with no effects added. How do I prevent them from being automatically added? I tried the reset at the opening of VEGAS Pro 12 by holding the Ctrl and Shift at the same time and clicking on Vegas. It opens and when I pull video into the edit line the FX are still there.

Did you reset Vegas correctly ?
If you don't reset correctly, nothing will actually happen.
Read this:
www.moviestudiozen.com/doctor-zen-faq/573-how-to-reset-sony-software-to-default-settings

What FX are you talking about ?
Can you show us which FX are being added ?

Please note that if you are taking about Audio FX, that is normal to see 3x fx added to all Audio Tracks connected with Video tracks.
These Audio FX are set to zero, so they have no actual affect until you select a preset.

Regards
Derek

OK, I forgot to click the cache button. But, is there a way to prevent the FX for the video to keep being applied to new videos? I have to open the FX tab and close each one and then start editing. Very annoying.

I have never had anyone report something like this before, so it doesn't make any sense.

Re-boot your computer.
Then do another Full Program Reset:
www.moviestudiozen.com/doctor-zen-faq/573-how-to-reset-sony-software-to-default-settings#a1

BEFORE you do anything, go to Options/Preferences/General
Turn OFF Automatically open last project on Startup
Close Vegas Pro
Re-open Vegas Pro
Press CTRL + SHIFT + Q (this inserts a new video track)
DON'T try and add any videos
Look at the Track FX button - is it grey or green ?

If it is green, which means there are FX added, I need you to check something.
Go to Tools/Scripting and take a screen shot, then upload to forum.
Does it look exactly like this list or do you see extra items ?
I am guessing that you may have a Script running by accident that is doing something.


If you still have a problem after this message, I have another idea.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Did I thank you? just in case Thank You!!!
What ever it was is gone now. I was almost going to get the Vegas Pro 15. I think I'll wait and see. I can do the 2 plays and a couple of other things for a while. I may be doing a video for the local community meetings here in town. I just need simple editing. But, those nagging FXs were annoying me. I had to keep remembering to unload them before starting to edit the newest video.

Did I thank you?

Thanks so much for being here.

Sounds like you experienced an X-file.

X-files are quite common in computer-land.

Now you can get back to creating.

Yaknow, when i asked Vegas any questions they reply with "we no longer support vegas pro 12, it is considered a legacy product". Like having an orphan program with no one to care for it anymore. I got it as a gift from B&H Photo with a Sony camcorder 2 years ago. Works fine for me. But, i know at some point there will be an issue with it no longer working because of upgrades to operating systems or sumptin like that. Meanwhile i'll keep using it.

That's why forums (especially) such as this one are so important. The "official" support staff seldom seems to have the knowledge/experience/dedication that e.g. DoctorZen has. Keeping legacy products installed just to help users is one example of how he cares.
