4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent program for the price, February 14, 2004

This program fits perfectly in the middle. It's not as detailed as Adobe Premiere, but it's far more complex then most of the editing programs you'll find in the stores. It's designed for the advanced beginner who is past the simple programs, but not quite ready for the expensive complicated programs such as Premiere.

I've only been using it for a week, but I was immediatley able to edit a 2 min music video. Almost everythinig is very obvious and easy to use, though the more complex features do take a bit of time to figure out.

The tech support is also quite good. It may take a day or two for them to email you back, but when they do, their answer is usually helpful.

Wow, this software sounded so cool, all the stuff it could do, the waveform/vectorscope, the chroma/lumenence keys, you can create bars and tone just like that. All that stuff is great but the real meat and potatoes of editing quickly is just not there. The basic triming of clips is almost non-existent, one cannot view a clip in the bin without putting it in the timeline first, even Pinnacle Studio products do that. What happened to audio waveforms and rubber bands, No audio mixer either? I have found that the basics of quickly cutting clips together in a reasonably accurate fashion is laborious and tedious with Lets Edit. Also, the effects wont preview without hitting cntrl to load into Ram just like on Premiere 6.0, how annoying. I have got a PIII 1gig with 512 ram not a 486. I love all of the special stuff this software does, but I think I will need to use it as a post rough cut tool for chroma key, checking levels on the scopes etc. I should just buck up and shell out the dough for Premiere Pro, I downloaded a trial version and it worked great.
