MAGIX Video deluxe

MAGIX Video deluxe is a consumer video editor for Windows that MAGIX positions as video editing for everyone, next to its Video Pro X for more demanding users. The US product page carries the name Video deluxe and sells the 2027 editions Plus, Premium and Ultimate.

All editions include AI tools, multicam editing, an effects library and access to stock content. Premium adds the proDAD VitaScene V5 Pro effects suite with more than 1,700 effects and filters, and Ultimate bundles Premium with 13 add-ons. MAGIX Video deluxe imports SD, HD, 4K and 8K material and can write DVD, Blu-ray and AVCHD discs.

MAGIX Video deluxe is published by MAGIX Software GmbH, Wrangelstrasse 100, 10997 Berlin, Germany. MAGIX describes itself as a former German start-up that has made software for more than 30 years and now has seven branches worldwide.

The MAGIX imprint and company page name no parent company or shareholder. MAGIX sold VEGAS Pro, Sound Forge and ACID Pro to the American company Boris FX, which announced the deal on 30 March 2026, so those products are no longer MAGIX products. MAGIX Video deluxe is installed locally, but needs a one-time registration and an internet connection for validation.

MAGIX Video deluxe is sold as a perpetual licence. The US list prices are USD 54.99 for Plus, USD 69.99 for Premium and USD 119.99 for Ultimate; on the day of checking they were shown at USD 44.99, USD 54.99 and USD 99.99. A free trial runs for 30 days.

MAGIX Video deluxe requires 64-bit Windows 10 or 11 and lists 16 GB of RAM for HD and 32 GB for 4K and AI features. It is a fit for home users who prefer owning a licence and still burn discs. Mac and Linux users are excluded, and who owns MAGIX is not published.

Where MAGIX Video deluxe falls short

• MAGIX Video deluxe runs on 64-bit Windows 10 and 11 only
• MAGIX does not name its owner or parent company on its imprint or company page
• MAGIX Video deluxe requires registration and an internet connection for validation
• MAGIX lists 32 GB of RAM for 4K editing and for the AI features

Standout feature. MAGIX Video deluxe is the most fully featured one-time-purchase consumer editor in this list, with three editions, multicam editing and disc authoring under a Berlin imprint.
