There's no upgrade option yet is there? I was looking at the site and couldn't find anything...

Magix offered me an upgrade to 13 and then I would get 14 free. I'm still not sure...

Interesting that they seemed to have ditched HitFilm in favour of Borris FX

Well I mean it's somewhat net-zero anyway since HitFilm itself (the NLE, not the plugins) has part of Boris baked in as of 4 anyway, and has had mocha for donkey's years. I'd be surprised if FXHOME didn't plan to try and license the rest of BCC for integration at some later date.

Magix has said in its forum that current users should get an upgrade email within 3 days.

They seem to have dropped the Mac version of Sound Forge. This answers my question: Vegas will not be ported to Mac.

Got the upgrade offer in my SPAM folder this morning haha. $249 for Vegas Pro 14 or $349 for Vegas Pro Suite 14 (coming from 13 Pro).
 
Debating if I'll do the upgrade. Probably will. Also debating if I'll jump to suite. I don't REALLY use it enough to justify suite BUT i don't know... maybe... haha

How do the Borris plugins compare to the competition? I've never used them before.
