These are step-by-step screenshots that can quickly acquaint you with all the necessary tools of the program. One of the other things you’ll notice right away is the included step-by-step tutorial. You really don’t want to have to dance in a circle just to hop between different effects and settings. You will likely use a majority of those tools at some point. The ability to jump from different tools and menus is extremely important when it comes to video editing. Overall, maneuvering through the program as a whole is very pleasant. You can jump between the home and editing menu at any time, which is a nice touch. Once you open or begin a project, you’ll find yourself in the main editing interface.

The sleek, black design that they’ve gone for gives it a very clean look, and the large “New Project” and “Open Project” buttons that you’re greeted with make it obvious what to start doing. The first menu has very little imagery or colors to pull your attention anywhere. As soon as you open GOM Mix Max, you’ll notice that it’s decidedly less flashy than many other programs.
