As of yet it&#8217;s still only for Windows and Linux, but the Mac version will appear (hopefully) this year. If you&#8217;ve not heard of Lightworks before, it is the only professional level <strong>non-linear editing software that is <a title=\"Lightworks Download\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lwks.com\/index.php?option=com_lwks&amp;view=download&amp;Itemid=206\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">free to download<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>The free version is fully functional,<\/strong> but will only allow you to export to Youtube or Vimeo at 720p.

There are a huge number of new features which allow for a much greater range of flexibility and customizations to the editor&#8217;s personal preference (which I for one am a big fan of). There is now also<strong> support for AJA I\/O devices (Kona and Io XT)<\/strong>.
