H, Daniel. I'm a 73 year-old musician, who is a video Noob, who wants to leave some legacy examples of my music to my children and grandchildren. I'd like to create a video of my performing all the parts of songs, such as the lead vocal, harmonies, lead guitar, rhythm guitar, bass, keyboard, violin, drums, banjo, etc. How would I go about blending a single audio track and a 3x3 matrix of me playing a different instrument in each widow? I guess it's called a collage or split screens. Are there any stock footage at Storyblocks that could help with that? Actually, It would be great if you could make a Noob video showing how to do that in DaVinci Resolve! Thanks!
This is by FAR the best video on you tube describing the use of this feature! Sadly I can't get Davinci 18.5 to work(see comment down below). Really enjoyed the guitar, two guitar into amp metaphor, made it way easier to understand for someone like myself that's beginning. thank you Subbed
One tip I would recommend for editors new to Fusion as well: if you right-click anywhere in your Nodes region (but not on any node) you'll see an option "Line Up All Tools To Grid" which you can click to organize your nodes automatically. Combine this with the option directly above, "Arrange Tools" and select "to Grid" and not only will your existing nodes be organized, but all future nodes will automatically snap to the grid. This is good for staying on top of your nodes, and for me, it helps to visualize my nodes more like puzzle pieces than just a smattering of effects all across a workspace.
Also if you right mouse click on the grid. Choose options and set to Orthogonal pipes. T he pipe lines travel in angled lines. If you Alt left click on a node pipe it will put a little junction box on the pipeline you can drag around to organise the pipework.
Agreed. Good analogy. I had an amazing college algebra teacher in college who always used real life examples for whatever she was teaching that day. It definitely helps to break stuff down in a way you feel like you can understand.
Yes yes yes! Came here from the junk that is Hiftilm Pro man I shouldnt have ignored DVRS18 last year. Plus I like knowing that when I want to donate 300 as a thank you I dont have to PAY later for the right to continue using it ♡ Also, the IDE is just fooking GORGEOUS, go BlackMagic!
Not just a simple explanation that doesn't talk down but also a seamless, contextually relevant, blending-in of the sponsor - salute and many thanks, this was the tutorial I needed right now \m/
Hey thanks! I really appreciate that. Love having a few great sponsors that are willing to work with a knucklehead like me but I do try to keep it about the conversation as much as possible
I've seen many great effects tutorials for fusion but, they were advanced instruction. Your "dumbed down" explanation is so much easier to follow that I'm now more confident in trying some of those effects. Thank you for this.
As a certified NOOB, this really helped me understand the FUSION page and tools a little better. Thx Daniel. Your videos are very cool, concise and well thought out as a teacher. I appreciate it and love your channel.
You are making understanding fusion and Davinci resolve so much easier than any of the 100's of how to videos I have watched. Thumbs up and a sub, please keep the how to Davinci resolve videos coming
Finally, an explanation and demonstration of the basic functions of fusion that was easy to follow and made sense. You taught me Filmora, and I hope to see more Noob video spots (succinct and informative) about Resolve and more detailed tutorials on the software as time goes on. You are a wonderful teacher!
On RUclips there are some teachers and many exhibitionists. Teachers are those whose aim is for others to understand what s/he understands. Student comprehension is the goal. Teachers want students to know what they know. Exhibitionists are those whose aim is to show what they know. The video is an exhibit to demonstrate what s/he can do. This video is truly a tutorial, because it’s creator is a teacher. Teachers are a blessing to everyone who seeks to learn. Thank you for wanting others to know what you know.
Once again, you’ve outdone yourself as a Davinci Instructor! I have my iPad in front of me watching your videos and following along working on Davinci at the same time. Without your awesome ways of explaining things clearly, precisely, with no BS, I’m learning zillions times faster than any other videos I’ve found! Keep em coming! Thanks from GA!
I’m a musician/videographer and just learning DAVINCI Resolve and I was happy to find this video. The video is spot on. Easily understood with demos. Really enjoy your videos. THANK YOU!!❤
I have made the switch to Davinci from FCP. But I have really struggled to get going with it. Today, this tutorial flipped a switch and now I am finally seeing the "light". Thank you.
I've been watching your DaVinchi and RUclips Videos and I just want to say that you have a great understanding of what you say and how you say it. Lots of the tutorials I see, people tend to assume that the audience understands the basic language of what's being explained. But you are very aware of what you're saying and will even stop to explain things that may seem "basic" to others. Personally, I think that takes a lot of time and thought to try and think of what may confuse viewers, so thank you for that.
This video right here is an absolute gem. These kinda things get really intimidating when you have no idea what you're looking at. I was so intimidated by this page and lost in the app for a while now, but you just explained how it works perfectly. Now I understand the fundamentals of the fusion page enough to be able to start learning smaller details on my own. Thank you very much!
Sir, you are a fantastic teacher. The guitar example did the trick for me! NOW, I have my first clue about fusion 😎. Thank you so much for investing your time in this.
You are a Genius!! I am a Guitarist just Like you and also learning Video Editing this video connected my 2 passions and helped me a lot Thanks!!!!!!Man
Thanks for the tutorial! I just started using this software for my channel, and I'm still quite a noob at it :') I will for sure try and use these tips on my next documentary:)
As a guitarist myself this explanation totally made sense. I am just starting to learn fusion, but this definitely helped me visualise it and I think I have a better understanding now of what those nodes are and how to connect them in the chain. Now just play around and mess things up.
Signal chain, baby! That’s the only way it makes sense for me too. If this video was helpful, this is sort of a follow up that’ll show you how to do a little bit more using the Fusion page now that you understand the workflow -> ruclips.net/user/liveV_hm-kCWWwY?si=AiXFAl6FKrB2EEaF
Now this is gonna get more fun. Also funny enough, 0:06 the best OG Fusion YT channel on YT is called Pirates of Confusion haha. Also, the guitar amp analogy was great for beginners to understand, I personally used the basic plumbing pipeline analogy while learning it.
So much HELP this has been. I have watched at least a dozen other Fusion Learning tutorials and NONE have given me the insite into how it works. Your video on the other hand was AWESOME. I now now understand how Nodes work, just have to figure out what each type does. Now I have made 2 new Fancy end credits for my videos that are just awesome. Thanks again I will be watching more of your videos soon.
The Fusion page has been soo intimidating to me ever since I started using Davinci. Thank you for helping me be more confident with it. It’s quite motivating
It's funny to see Fusion being referred to as a "page" in Davinci 🤣. It was (and in a way still is) a full fledged compositing package that once even rivaled (the back then) industry leading Shake. It was used extensively in many AAA hollywood blockbusters. Once you get the hang of the node based approach, new universes open up!
A really great job of making this very clear and showing me how I can use it even though I am probably through there a long infusion then some other people are looking at this. I wish I had seen it sooner because you did such a clear job of show me what I can do with it.
You're on it. That was really the only thing that helped me begin to get a better handle on Fusion. Thinking of it as 'Signal chain' instead of those crazy node boxes hanging in space.
I've been wanting to learn fusion for a while now, but all the tutorials are so complex, and the creators speak and click on things so fast its hard to keep up. As soon as you made the reference to the guitar it all made so much sense! Thank you for this amazing and unique method to learn this. I truly appreciate it! It gives old fools like me hope.. lol
Man, I’m so glad that made sense. I’m a total noob and just trying to pass along what I see in my journey. This is sort of the ‘sequel’ for anyone who enjoyed this video-> ruclips.net/user/liveV_hm-kCWWwY?si=zASLZc0j-9QxmFJx
Fairlight was the big opaque box for me that I had to work at, and thank you so much for cracking that nut. Fusion is a great visual way of putting effects in (so much easier than Filmora). Still got a steep learning curve on it, but I've been having fun. Same sort of approach as Unreal Engine with game design. Thanks again for all you are doing to walk us Resolve Noobs through the learning process!
@@Daniel_Batal Not yet. I had to jog my memory as to what they are (I know you covered them in your Fairlight video, but some days I'm a bear of small brain). They seem to be very useful to find where problems lie - I shall have to remember to have a play around with them.
@Daniel Batal I recently swapped to Davinci Resolve from Vegas, and the thing that sold it was vst 3 support in both edit and Fairlight. My Studio One Fat Channel completely supported.
It's insanely cool once you get into the flow of it, Iggy. The sky is the limit but even for basic stuff like masking and tweaking clips, it's just really smooth.
Appreciate everything you're doing Daniel. Been checking out your work since Filmora. I've switched to Resolve myself. Looking forward to beating film student kid's ass with it. ;-) She's using the Adobe. hehehe Fellow pretending to be musician too. Love the guitar>effects>amplifier analogy. I understood the way Fusion works right away.
I have not finished this tutorial yet, but so far, I think it’s one of the best and clearest explanations I’ve seen. I’ve been away from fusion for quite awhile and just needed some refreshers. This is really great my compliments and thank you
Normally I don't comment on any videos, but you deserve the comment. The work you do is incredible. Your explanation is better than many teachers at school. Thank you very much for all this information. Thanks to you, I overcome the complexity of DaVinci. Greetings from Turkey Daniel !
Awesome tutorial, I'm new to DR and knew nothing about fusion. Your teaching pace is easy to understand. Now this "confusion" makes a whole lot of sense. Thank much!
Well done brother. I just downloaded Davinci today and was messing around with it. So many buttons and had no idea where to start. Ive been using filmora for the past 2yrs, but it was becoming too basic for me. I appreciate this tutorial. Makes total sense!
I just started using Davinci from Premiere Pro. What a difference!! And I do have to say that you are a great teacher for us "NOOBS"! Thank you because you simplify things to make it easier to get started.
NODES in general have confused my feeble minds since starting to use DaVinci a few months ago. This video by using the guitar illustration has opened my eyes. Thanks sooooo much. Cheers -- Dan.
Hey Daniel I am watching you after an year I quit editing due to my college life i just wanted to see how much you have grown I miss my childhood so much. I watched you editing tips followed them and got good remarks from my friends,dad and other relatives missed those days
Being a composer myself, the music examples helped a TON! Thank you SO MUCH! Switching to DaVinci Resolve has been quite the undertaking, so this helped wrapped my head around Fusion that much more. 🤘🤘
Just searched for “making a collab video on RUclips” And came across a video of yours on the subject from 4 years ago. I decided to go to your channel and look at your most recent video and I just gotta say that you’ve dialed it in amazingly well my man 👏👏👏 Keep being awesome! ✌️😎
Wow! Flashback right there! Most people don’t know this channel started with music as an integral motivation, hit it in the middle and came back to it recently. What a ride ❤️
Thank you! I really hope that makes sense for not just musicians. I hope enough people have seen a guitar player in their lifetime that the idea of a ‘signal chain’ can simplify learning Fusion.
Finally diving into Fusion and after a bunch of videos this is by far the most easy to understand, watch, and just generally listen to. The guitar analogy is spot on. Thank you so much for all the efforts put into this stellar video! ❤
Thank you for always explaining things in a much much easy and with the practical approach. Most of the tutorials on RUclips had me snoring or confused too much. Love you my friend.
As a guitar player myself you literally made this the most easy to understand video I could have possibly found by using the guitar to amp analogy. Thanks for the tips!
Been watching your videos since your Filmora days and you are absolutely the best TEACHER out there. Your scripting, pace, dialog, clear diction all come together to make fantastic instructional videos. However, I think this “simple” explainatoin of how to do a couple of simple things in Resolve just convinced me to stick with FCPX for now. I’ll keep watching your videos because I love to learn from a master.
Daniel, this is great. I have watched a number of fusion tutorials. Learned a lot--mostly to stay away from the Fusion Page. After watching this, I want to go in there and use it!!
Man, love hearing that! When you get through this one, this is a great follow up to try a little bit more in Fusion---> ruclips.net/user/liveV_hm-kCWWwY?si=_T7BVScdwmCyuvpj
I'm super new to Davinci. I've been a super armature creator using Pinnacle and I'm so tired of it crashing and a number of other issues. Your videos are greatly helping me out because I have a pretty good idea of what I want to do but can't figure out easily in Davinci how to make it happen. So THANKS!!!! Also, always checking out what someone else is doing helps all of us learn just another creative way to do something. Eventually I'll dabble with more complicated stuff. But for now, I'll keep it simple and make what I can the best I can make it. THANKS AGAIN!!!!
I've been a casual user of Davinci for a bit more than a year now and i never knew what those little dots meant under each fusion node! I like your casual approach to your tutorials. Consider me subscribed!
Dude, the way you explain how do things is so easy to understand. Im new to Resolve and editing in general. I have watched heaps of tutorials and end up banging my head on the desk in frustration. Great job. Liked and subscribed. Look forward to watching all your tutorials.
Thanks, Brett. I've got a Shorts series that drops one new Davinci Resolve tip or technique every day. That's where most of my focus has been on this topic recently. ruclips.net/p/PLsVDy3wGxbDA-pvAT1eH2_khEe0lDe90e
Fusion goes deep! But I totally agree. Once you start to ‘get it’…? The whole world opens up. Let me know what you think about this Fusion sequel-> ruclips.net/user/liveV_hm-kCWWwY?si=APxHhagxzs0Pn52Y
I don't know who you are, but I'm gonna give Davinci Resolve a shot, and I just finished your beginner, starter video. It was great, and this one is great too. This type of content makes me believe I can learn this stuff! Thank you!
I've seen many vids trying to explain fusion but as soon as you brought music into it, I'm finally understanding it! Being a guitarist myself, seeing nodes as a pedal board, just makes sense! New subscriber here pal!! 🤘🤘🖤☠️🖤☠️
I love that this analogy worked with both musicians like you and even folks who don't play guitar. Once you understand that it's just a signal chain, it suddenly becomes soooo much clearer.
Daniel! OMFG! THANK YOU!!! Looks like the end of Filmora for me, finally! As a guitarist myself, this made sooo much sense, if I can figure out a 15 pedal combo, I can do Fusion easy!!
Nice intro to Fusion. I was working with it today before I watched this video, and almost had no idea what did what. This video helped me quite a bit. You are the second creator I have heard recommend Story Blocks.
DUDE! You're freaking awesome. This was massively helpful. The simplicity mixed with the guitar analogy..... It all worked and now I'm gonna start messing with that section where when I saw other videos go to the fusion page I was always like, "well, I guess I'm not doing that one..." Thank you Daniel. You have a new sub.
I not a musician at all, but your analogies made it killer clear, you earned a sub. I'm new to Editing software and looking for all the newbie instruction I can find. Great stuff!!!
Daniel, this is the best explanation I’ve ever seen on how Fusion works and I don’t even play guitar. 😊 My analogy is a microphone going through a audio interface where the audio is processed and sent to the computer. Fusion has been a big stumbling block for me. Your explanation is something I’ve needed to get me started learning Resolve. Thank you. ✌🏻
Yeah, it's a TOTAL monster. Like have After Effects built into Premeire Pro. The possibilites are limitless but I wanted to just start small and hopefully get it to make sense.
@@Daniel_Batal you are a great teacher. I come from a family FULL of teachers and artists. Keep up the great work man! It's people like you that help people understand how much potential they really have. ROCK ON 🎸
I really love how you explained this well! It was always indeed very confusing with me how the nodes worked. But your sense of explaining makes it all feel very logical. Perhaps because I am a guitar player too, lol.
I did music tech at college, and i'm particuarly thankful that my tutor drilled the idea of signal flow/chain as a means to interpret the flow of editing in many other facets of creative work. I've used these metaphors similarly to explain to other photographer/videographer friends when I seriously started taking up this creative avenue. Stangely so, audio and video go very much hand in hand; who would have thought!
What an amazing tutorial. I am starting out with Davinci Resolve and wanted to learn nodes and fusion and boom, this dude got them for me all in one video. Keep it up

Ever since the software switch, you've been getting ultra love and growth to your channel. Glad they lost you to D.R.
More than happy with Envato Elements instead, but great tutorial about fusion thanks sir

Nicely done! Getting into Resolve after years on Pr; your explanantion expedites the teething process.

I have not finished this tutorial yet, but so far, I think it’s one of the best and clearest explanations I’ve seen. I’ve been away from fusion for quite awhile and just needed some refreshers. This is really great my compliments and thank you
Glad this was helpful!
Normally I don't comment on any videos, but you deserve the comment. The work you do is incredible. Your explanation is better than many teachers at school. Thank you very much for all this information. Thanks to you, I overcome the complexity of DaVinci. Greetings from Turkey Daniel !
Hey thanks! I really appreciate the kind words!
@@Daniel_Batal You deserve all the kind words believe me.I greatly respect your aim to teach people something.
Great explanation ❤ easy and quick 😊 Namaste 🙏 from Bharat 🇮🇳
Thanks!
Awesome tutorial, I'm new to DR and knew nothing about fusion. Your teaching pace is easy to understand. Now this "confusion" makes a whole lot of sense. Thank much!
Happy that helped!
Well done brother. I just downloaded Davinci today and was messing around with it. So many buttons and had no idea where to start. Ive been using filmora for the past 2yrs, but it was becoming too basic for me. I appreciate this tutorial. Makes total sense!
I’ve been loving Resolve
I just started using Davinci from Premiere Pro. What a difference!! And I do have to say that you are a great teacher for us "NOOBS"! Thank you because you simplify things to make it easier to get started.
👊😎☮️
This instantly made the second most overwhelming tab in Davinci approachable. Love it! Well done!
NODES in general have confused my feeble minds since starting to use DaVinci a few months ago. This video by using the guitar illustration has opened my eyes. Thanks sooooo much. Cheers -- Dan.
Awesome! I'm glad this made some sense. Onward!
Hey Daniel I am watching you after an year I quit editing due to my college life i just wanted to see how much you have grown I miss my childhood so much. I watched you editing tips followed them and got good remarks from my friends,dad and other relatives missed those days
Nice!
Explaining fusion like a guitar rig was genius dude.
Glad that made sense, Adam!
Thanka Daniel. Concise and to the point. As a guitarist I appreciated explaining the pipline like you did. Fusion is a signal chain.
Absolutely
Being a composer myself, the music examples helped a TON! Thank you SO MUCH! Switching to DaVinci Resolve has been quite the undertaking, so this helped wrapped my head around Fusion that much more. 🤘🤘
Great to hear!
Just searched for “making a collab video on RUclips” And came across a video of yours on the subject from 4 years ago. I decided to go to your channel and look at your most recent video and I just gotta say that you’ve dialed it in amazingly well my man
👏👏👏
Keep being awesome! ✌️😎
Wow! Flashback right there!
Most people don’t know this channel started with music as an integral motivation, hit it in the middle and came back to it recently.
What a ride ❤️
The guitar pedals analogy is brilliant. Makes so much sense of a pretty challenging (if not to say mystifying) feature of DaVinci. Thanks!
Thank you!
I really hope that makes sense for not just musicians.
I hope enough people have seen a guitar player in their lifetime that the idea of a ‘signal chain’ can simplify learning Fusion.
Finally diving into Fusion and after a bunch of videos this is by far the most easy to understand, watch, and just generally listen to. The guitar analogy is spot on. Thank you so much for all the efforts put into this stellar video! ❤
Sweet! Glad that helped.

Thank you for always explaining things in a much much easy and with the practical approach. Most of the tutorials on RUclips had me snoring or confused too much. Love you my friend.
You're very welcome!
Best explanation of this so far. Thank you for this! The guitar analogy is what clicked for me (finally!)
Glad it was helpful!
Explaining it like a guitar is the perfect way to correlate and explain this, it makes so much more sense now, thank you
Glad that made sense.
As a guitar player myself you literally made this the most easy to understand video I could have possibly found by using the guitar to amp analogy. Thanks for the tips!
Glad it helped!
Great job breaking this down in under 20 minutes, clear and concise, I upvoted
Awesome, thank you!
You are my first teacher who resolved DaVinci (Con)Fusion for me. Thanks trillion times.
Happy to help!
Been watching your videos since your Filmora days and you are absolutely the best TEACHER out there. Your scripting, pace, dialog, clear diction all come together to make fantastic instructional videos. However, I think this “simple” explainatoin of how to do a couple of simple things in Resolve just convinced me to stick with FCPX for now. I’ll keep watching your videos because I love to learn from a master.
Stick with what works for you
as a (kind of) guitarist, the FX pedal analogy sealed the deal for me. Really well explained dude.
Awesome! Glad that made sense
It's always a pleasure to hear Tom Araya talk about Video Editing
Coming from Zac Brown, that really means a lot 🙏❤️
Daniel, this is great. I have watched a number of fusion tutorials. Learned a lot--mostly to stay away from the Fusion Page. After watching this, I want to go in there and use it!!
Man, love hearing that! When you get through this one, this is a great follow up to try a little bit more in Fusion---> ruclips.net/user/liveV_hm-kCWWwY?si=_T7BVScdwmCyuvpj
I really 'got' the analogy of the guitar plugging into the amp, what a brilliant call out. I won't be able to unlearn that. fantastic!
Glad that was helpful!
You're doing a great thing Sir! Thank You so much!
I haven't even finish the video, but your metaphor about a guitar and amp just make this all start to click for me!!
Great to hear! 👊😎☮️
Excellent beginning Fusion tutorial. I can "relate" being the sound guy at church.
Are you considering more "complex" Fusion tutorials?
I'm super new to Davinci. I've been a super armature creator using Pinnacle and I'm so tired of it crashing and a number of other issues. Your videos are greatly helping me out because I have a pretty good idea of what I want to do but can't figure out easily in Davinci how to make it happen. So THANKS!!!! Also, always checking out what someone else is doing helps all of us learn just another creative way to do something. Eventually I'll dabble with more complicated stuff. But for now, I'll keep it simple and make what I can the best I can make it. THANKS AGAIN!!!!
Right on, John!
Glad these videos have been helpful!
बहुत सुंदर से समझाया थैंक यू
आपका स्वागत है!
Great dear, you have made this understandable. first simple video
Thank you so much 🙂
Thank you. I have been using Fusion for a few yrs, and although I have the basics sorted. That was brilliant. Keep going with this style.
Thanks, will do!
I've been a casual user of Davinci for a bit more than a year now and i never knew what those little dots meant under each fusion node! I like your casual approach to your tutorials. Consider me subscribed!
Welcome aboard!
Yeah, Resolve is feature rich and I always seem to be finding something I didn't know existed the day before.
Dude, the way you explain how do things is so easy to understand. Im new to Resolve and editing in general. I have watched heaps of tutorials and end up banging my head on the desk in frustration. Great job. Liked and subscribed. Look forward to watching all your tutorials.
Thanks, Brett. I've got a Shorts series that drops one new Davinci Resolve tip or technique every day. That's where most of my focus has been on this topic recently. ruclips.net/p/PLsVDy3wGxbDA-pvAT1eH2_khEe0lDe90e
I can't find the Tube Screamer node! Cheers Daniel!!
😅
thank you ive been using resolve for a week now and just had no idea how to deal with the fusion page this video helps explain things a lot!
Glad it helped!
This is so much easier than i thought. I always thought i needed graphic packs to add some effects but fusion is just so good.
Fusion goes deep! But I totally agree.
Once you start to ‘get it’…?
The whole world opens up.
Let me know what you think about this Fusion sequel-> ruclips.net/user/liveV_hm-kCWWwY?si=APxHhagxzs0Pn52Y
I don't know who you are, but I'm gonna give Davinci Resolve a shot, and I just finished your beginner, starter video. It was great, and this one is great too. This type of content makes me believe I can learn this stuff! Thank you!
Right on! You can definitely do it 👊😎☮️
I've seen many vids trying to explain fusion but as soon as you brought music into it, I'm finally understanding it! Being a guitarist myself, seeing nodes as a pedal board, just makes sense! New subscriber here pal!! 🤘🤘🖤☠️🖤☠️
I love that this analogy worked with both musicians like you and even folks who don't play guitar.
Once you understand that it's just a signal chain, it suddenly becomes soooo much clearer.
Daniel! OMFG! THANK YOU!!! Looks like the end of Filmora for me, finally! As a guitarist myself, this made sooo much sense, if I can figure out a 15 pedal combo, I can do Fusion easy!!
Ha! Yes!!
Great video my friend! Congrats on the sponsorship deal. Double props for the use of “perfect shot“.
I might owe you trademark royalties.
Nice intro to Fusion. I was working with it today before I watched this video, and almost had no idea what did what. This video helped me quite a bit. You are the second creator I have heard recommend Story Blocks.
Fusion is a beast once you get a handle on it.
And Storyblocks now has DaVincie Reaolve templates & transitions.
I like the combo
Thanks for getting me started! I am ditching Filmora as soon as I can learn Divinci Resolve. I think this software will make my videos much better.
You can do it!
Thank you! I using powerdirector at moment, but it has its limits, I love seeing how DaVinci has so many options
DUDE! You're freaking awesome. This was massively helpful. The simplicity mixed with the guitar analogy..... It all worked and now I'm gonna start messing with that section where when I saw other videos go to the fusion page I was always like, "well, I guess I'm not doing that one..." Thank you Daniel. You have a new sub.
Glad that was helpful! This video is sort of “step 2” for Fusion-> ruclips.net/user/liveV_hm-kCWWwY?si=1lwYKJs075Rkwxdj
I not a musician at all, but your analogies made it killer clear, you earned a sub. I'm new to Editing software and looking for all the newbie instruction I can find. Great stuff!!!
Oh sweet! I was hoping it would make sense to more than just guitar geeks like me
This is the "basics" part that makes it possible for me to start learning the basics about fusion, thank you for flattening the learning curve!
Love hearing that. Thanks for the kind words
Finally some clarity regarding the logic of Fusion. Thank you.
☮️
Daniel, this is the best explanation I’ve ever seen on how Fusion works and I don’t even play guitar. 😊 My analogy is a microphone going through a audio interface where the audio is processed and sent to the computer. Fusion has been a big stumbling block for me. Your explanation is something I’ve needed to get me started learning Resolve. Thank you. ✌🏻
Awesome! I'm glad this made sense!
He gives the clearest explanation about nodes that I have seen.
Glad you think so!
So that's what Fusion is...🤣 I had absolute zero clue what that part of the program was! You rock man. Thanks for digging into Davinci!
Yeah, it's a TOTAL monster. Like have After Effects built into Premeire Pro. The possibilites are limitless but I wanted to just start small and hopefully get it to make sense.
@@Daniel_Batal you are a great teacher. I come from a family FULL of teachers and artists. Keep up the great work man! It's people like you that help people understand how much potential they really have. ROCK ON 🎸
I really love how you explained this well! It was always indeed very confusing with me how the nodes worked. But your sense of explaining makes it all feel very logical.
Perhaps because I am a guitar player too, lol.
Ha! I speak fluent stomp pedal.
Glad this was helpful ☮️
I did music tech at college, and i'm particuarly thankful that my tutor drilled the idea of signal flow/chain as a means to interpret the flow of editing in many other facets of creative work.
I've used these metaphors similarly to explain to other photographer/videographer friends when I seriously started taking up this creative avenue.
Stangely so, audio and video go very much hand in hand; who would have thought!
Amen.
I use sooo much of my experience working in recording studios for decades (long before digital) to help me understand video production.
Great to ses a video explaining the fusion page, thanks!
Hope my take makes sense and is helpful.
Excellent again! Thank you ....... I am going to find something on color grading next. Appreciate you making these videos
Happy to help!
What an amazing tutorial. I am starting out with Davinci Resolve and wanted to learn nodes and fusion and boom, this dude got them for me all in one video. Keep it up
Glad I could help!
