Reviews
PC Authority, Australia
Recommended Award and A-List Award“Most impressive is the inclusion of a wide range of AutoMusic tracks and track variations from SmartSound. The advantage of AutoMusic tracks is that they adapt themselves to the length of clip…VideoStudio Pro X3's handling of effects has also been overhauled. There's now support for filters across multiple tracks, and the range of filters has been expanded, two of which immediately caught our eye.”
“What really stands out about VideoStudio Pro X3's effects handling, though, is its speed. Thanks to hardware acceleration support for Intel Core i7 and Nvidia CUDA, Corel is claiming a doubling in VideoStudio Pro X3's overall performance. “

Recommended Award"Where the X3 shines, though, is in the efficiency of its workflow and speed of processing. Since it feels so snappy, Corel VideoStudio Pro X3 encourages creative experimentation, which makes for a more enjoyable video-editing experience and better end results. It's enough to seize the consumer-level video crown from the comparatively unwieldy Premiere Elements 8."

"Overall, I would highly recommend VideoStudio Pro X2.
