This is normal. The "stuttering" you heard was the audio being rendered on the RAM preview. Once the render area goes green the sound and vid are rendered and play normally as I hear in the latter part of your vid

thanks for the fast reply. I think I phrased it wrong. If I stay with sony vegas and learn AE. Will that be compatible or is it better to learn premiere pro and AE?


Premiere is more compatible with AE because of Dynamic Link and Essential Graphics. and it's a lot better at handling larger and more complex projects. A lot of feature films are being cut on Premiere Pro. You won't find that much professional high-level work that is produced using Vegas.

On the other hand, basically editing is editing and the hard part is learning when to cut and how to manipulate sound. Those basics, the things that make a good editor, are the same no matter what app you use. It's all about the timing. The additional features used to polish a production are different and the UI is different. If your goal is to work as efficiently as possible and you plan complex projects then I would suggest that you spend a fair amount of time learning Premiere Pro.
