Adding, managing, and arranging media

After you've created a project, you're going to need to add media to it.

The objects you work with in VEGAS® Pro projects are referred to as media files and events:

• Media files are the source audio and video files that are stored on your hard disk. VEGAS Pro projects do not operate on or modify these files. Files can be accessed from the Explorer window.

• An event is an occurrence of a media file on the VEGAS Pro timeline. An event can represent an entire media file or a portion of it. A single media file can be used repeatedly to create any number of different events, since each event can be trimmed independently. An event's position on the timeline determines when it will be played back in your project.
