If you are used to Adobe Premiere Pro or Final Cut Pro X, this is where you will feel most at home as it’s similar. The Edit page features drag and drop editing, smart trimming tools, fast proxy editing, live previews of any effects and has a huge library full of effects and transitions. It's also the only way to process B-Raw files from Blackmagic cameras. It’s the only single programme that has not just editing and colour correction but professional audio, motion graphics and visual effects built in.

As well as its industry-standard colour editing and grading, of course. From its Fairlight audio processing to Fusion graphics, it has the lot.
