Wow dude. This was epic. Instant +SUB +UP. Question... Do you really suggest memorizing the awkward keyboard prices at you disgust at the end, or is it better to edit the keyboard findings and make them something a little more easy?
Do whatever feels most comfortable :) If you are not sharing your keyboard/setup with another editor then feel free to customize :)
You cant even imagine the amount of time I am about to save after watching this. You deserve an award kind sir! Thank you so much
Wow - you're so welcome - glad I could help :)
Man.. I’ve been wasting so much time!
Glad it helped!! :) :):
@@JasonLeckie same here! amazing tutorial, thankyou!
My god Jason, I love you! I'm new to editing multicam footage, so I had absolutely no idea about this method of doing stuff! Took me days to edit an hour long multicam event by manually cutting and piecing together the clips i wanted, and boy am I glad there's a better way to do it. Thank you for making this video, this is knowledge I'll keep forever :D
Wow that makes me so happy to read that - thank you so much for the kind comment - all the best :) :)
Not only do you explain multicam in a short to the point video I learnt new keyboard shortcuts 🍻🍻🍻🍻
Haha bonus!! - Thanks :) :)
This is so awesome. I have used Davinci Resolve for a couple of years now and wanted to work with multiple cameras. You sir are a LIFE SAVER! Thank you so much! Subscribed without any hesitation!
Wow, thanks! Glad it helped :) :)
Great explanation, thank you.
One little hack that goes with my workflow is to sync both cameras to the same audio (I happen to be recording the audio externally anyway) but after I've synced the audio, they will both have identical audio anyway so you don't even need to worry about the changing audio... it's literally the same file. It doesn't save any time over how you did it, but I have to do it before I start anyway.
For all of the supportive comments below (and above) and my own experience, I have now subscribed to your channel. Your teaching style is excellent and effortless. Thanks!
Wow, thank you you so much, that's very kind :) :)

Thank you for the video tutorial! I'm new to video editing (hobby) and Da Vinci Resolve and just edited my first multicam project! I'm having a little trouble with clips that I would like to be sped up but when I adjust the speed of the clip it takes out the audio from the following clips. Is there a way to fix this?
SUBED AMAZING TUTORIAL
Thanks so much - glad it was helpful :) :)
Great video... how would I do this with footage shot from the same camera with three different angles on three different takes and three different sound tracks... is it possible?
Thak you so much
You're welcome :) :)
So helpful! One question: When you showed how to cut to a second camera, your cursor changed to the cut tool. For some reason, that doesn't happen with mine. When I hover over the original source multicam, it only shows a swap icon on the cursor. I tried to select the regular timeline cut tool and it also won't affect the original source preview. Any idea what setting I might have to switch on or off to make that work?
subscribed. Your teaching style suits me better than a lot of others. Love the clear examples. Any tips on using the Speed Editor to switch angles? Dragging the trim handles (terminology might be wrong) to correct a misplaced cut was a revelation. Thanks for that, and the whole video.
Thanks so much and glad the vid was helpful, I'm still waiting to get a speed editor when I get one I'll let you know :)
Really Really useful, I'm new to video, should I colour correct my individual clips before setting up a multicam sequence or after?
Thanks!! That's a great question - there are a few different ways you could do - I'm going to be doing a dedicated video on multicam grading but in the meantime this vid should point you in the right direction: ruclips.net/video/sefRKm2wnio/видео.html
I’ve always wondered how to do this the easier way.
Always felt too daunting to do it manually.
It makes making videos a bit more interesting and fun sometimes :)
Lovely video, and if i may ask, is this the same way you alternate between the screen recording and your talking head recording?
Thanks and it sure is, the screen recording is one camera angle and me is another :)
I did a wedding this past weekend with 3 main cameras and 1 as backup. Due to wind noise or crowd noise non of my clips will sync up with the others. No matter what combo I try it wont work. I even put markers on my clips after aligning them up manually and did the marker sync and it wont work?
Hi Andy - that's tough :( Maybe just start with trying to get 2 cams synced - sounds like you will have to do this manually, forget about multicam to start with and just do this with 2 clips on the timeline to see if what you are trying to do is possible. You could also try multicam by setting in points on each of the cams vid files and trying the sync using in point option when you create a multi cam clip. If you are planning on shooting a lot of weddings like this then you may want to look at timecode gear for all your cameras to make sync easier or get a physical slate/clapper board or clapper board app and make sure all cams can see it so you can use that as a manual sync point.
I'm trying to make the move from Premiere Pro to Resolve (major issues with the latest version of PP) and the multicam feature in Resolve seems to fall a bit short. Can you ripple delete on the fly while you're switching your camera angles? When I tried it, it seems to mess up the audio track. I have it selected to only change the video angle and leave the audio on my selected track. When I ripple delete, it deletes the video track but doesn't touch the audio track. This gets everything out of sync. Am I missing something? Thanks for the video.
Hi, if you have the change video only icon on then it shouldn't change the audio so that's weird. I use ripple delete all the time with multicam and the rippling doesn't change the audio so I'm not sure what is happening there I'm afraid. Sorry I couldn't be of more help with this :(
@@JasonRobertsVideo it's kind of hard to explain.
If I notice it happening to me I will try and work it out and comment again with a solution.
@@JasonRobertsVideo thank you
thank you so much, a brilliant video :) I cant believe I havent used multi cam before! I have a question, i edit podcasts and i use wav recorded audio instead of camera audio for quality reasons. that means that each person on the podcast will have their own audio track. i then delete the camera audio. how might i go about incorporating this into the multi cam technique? thank you
Thanks!! :) :) These 2 vids might help: ruclips.net/video/wN4fIjtTFmE/видео.html ruclips.net/video/YShFsdOSRQ0/видео.html
I am really thinking about buying the $600 keyboard that comes with the pro version of DR. Do you recommend?
I've been thinking about that or the speed editor myself too :)
Maybe I missed it but can you edit in multicam and have it blade cut through everything? Im seeing comments on other vids where someone says the blade tool wont cut through everything like finalcut does

Hi Jason
I shoot a wedding with 2 cameras. My camera 1 (camcorder) captured the entire weeding with 7 clips and my camera 2 (DSLR) only took a few short clips (17 clips). I first tried to align/sync all clips in my timeline, but that wasn't possible because alignment is only possible with one clip per track. Then I tried to sync all my clips with Multicam. It doesn't sync my clips serially either. It synced with some strange seriel. In my case, is there an effective solution in DR to synchronize all clips serially?
Please help me 🙏
Interesting - I would try starting by placing your 7 clips serially on a timeline and make a compound clip, then bring in DSLR clips 1 by 1 and sync them with the compound clip. when all synced select just the DSLR clips and make them into a second compound clip. Then in media browser select the 2 compound clips and make a multicam from them. Let me know if that works :)
Thanks Jason for this! I am having trouble aligning my audio recorded on an external recorder with the audio on the timeline, recorded on my cameras. Keeps on failing saying no match found......whats the works around here?
Did you do a clap sync or slate/clapper board sync as a backup? If not you will need to try and align manually with a lip/mouth movement that makes a certain word or sound - it can be done but it m ight be tedious.
thx for your fast reply. no Clap or clipboard. When I edit the normal why DeVinci alongs algins the audio perfectly. Are you saying with this method you can't auto align 3 track recorded on an externa recorder? l @@JasonRobertsVideo
Try aligning normally (I'm assuming you mean in a timeline) - then select all the clips and make a compound clip. Then try and use the compound clip as one of the angle when you create the multicam clip.
Is there any way to do this if one camera has multiple files? I film with 3 dslr and they make 1 new file for each 4GB, ( about 4 minutes in 4K) and DaVinci consider each file a new camera ...
This vid might help: ruclips.net/video/ecdaJJkIH0s/видео.html
what do you do if you have more audio sources you want to use at the same time like wedding lavs? Looks like you can only have one at a time using this method which seems crazy could i just drag all the audio I want onto the timeline and sync it and have the multicam video clip at the top? Also how do you grade the footage without doing every clip indicidually?
Hi Billy, great questions! You don't have to color grade each clip over and over, check out this vid that I made to show you how to color grade multiple clips the same: ruclips.net/video/sefRKm2wnio/видео.html Multichannel mulitcam audio is not something I have played with yet and I guess it would depend if you wanted to be able to mix each audio track independently in your main timeline - if you didn't then you could add each audio track (synced up) to each multicam source clip (by creating compound clips) - I think your suggested approach would work if you wanted to change the mix during the edit. There is a feature called adaptive audio but don't know much about it yet.
I had the same question Billy, did you find a way to do it? I have separate tracks for each lav and it is a nightmare.
@@hassenruck I have not yet unfortunately seems like a crazy oversight. It should be so much easier. I can’t even drag clips on multiple tracks I know are synced correctly and it messes it up. Just not worth it which is such a waste.
@@billycrowe4501 Thanks for getting back to me. I think I just found a work around. On page 807 of the manual is Opening and Altering Multicam Clips. This gives you access to the audio tracks, which you can name and you can delete the ones you don't want but it does mess up with the angles. Hope this helps.
I have a lot of clips that make up my video. Is there a good way to sync these clips (A/B/Audio) efficiently? Do I need to do each clip manually?
This vid should help: ruclips.net/video/ecdaJJkIH0s/видео.html
@@JasonRobertsVideo That's perfect! Thank you so much!
You're welcome :) :)
Hi, is there a way to put the multicam viewer to an extra monitor, I mean only them. If you edit speach from 2-4 cameras,it no problem but edition dance videos with 6-10 takes,you see nothing in those small windows... Any tips?
Not that I know of sorry. You can drag the timeline down to make the source viewer window bigger and also at the bottom right of the source viewer there's a dropdown that let's you choose how many cameras to see, e.g. 2x2 etc, you could change this to 1x1 to see just one camera angle bigger and then cycle through them. Or use Workspace->Video Clean Feed to a second monitor and then when you switch cameras you will see a bigger version on the 2nd monitor.
@@JasonRobertsVideo thanks... That all I know ... Now I have 25 cuts for the same music... It's not enough to see 4 or even 9... They'll be so tiny, they're no help at all. 😭 Thanks anyway
Hi, I think I understand the question better now - it sounds like you are using multicam for take selection which might not be the best way to do this. Look into DaVinci Resolve Take Selector and see if that is a better workflow for you
This works if your video is short and the camera only provided you with one clip, but how do you do this when the video is 40 or more minutes and each camera gives you multiple files that string together? When trying this method, it took every camera file and created a different angle even though I told it to align via audio.
See if this vid helps: ruclips.net/video/ecdaJJkIH0s/видео.html
Great video! What about color correcting for multicam?
Video on that coming soon! :)
Thank you. How does one save grading etc BEFORE the cutting up? You certainly don't want to do the bulk of that after.
One way to do it is to use remote grade like I show in this video: ruclips.net/video/sefRKm2wnio/видео.html
Super helpful. Is this a paid version? Mine doesn't seem to have a couple of the view features.
Edit: Turn inspector off
Glad you got it sorted :) :)
Dear Jason. Thats a great video. Simple to the point. The only thing that bothers me is when Im working with external recorder (zoom) for podcast and I have separate clips and separate audio tracks. I also have audio from each cam. Do you have a workflow for multicam, but using audio from a recorder using 3 or more mics? (each mic has its own track). That will also be a good video. Thank you for your time and effort.
Hi thanks and also that's a great Idea for a video - I'll try and get that made for you early next year :) :)
Thats great, thanks. Ill be waiting for that present from you :) Happy Christmas and happy New year to you, family and friends.🎄
Not sure if you've seen this yet - hope it helps: ruclips.net/video/wN4fIjtTFmE/видео.html
I was the first who show it and the first to thank you at comments (@user-wk2yn2yt2z). Thanks again
Yay - thanks for the support! :) :)
Hey Joe, when the cams are setup as multicam, and before any editing, I want to brighten ONLY one entire clip, not brighten ALL clips...ha ha...how to do that?
Open multicam in timeline, switch to color page and then grade the camera angle you want to brighten.
This is great, would be nice to dive into audio a little more when you have multi channels.
Thanks and thanks for the idea - I got a few multicam tips vids coming out in the next 2 weeks - anything specifically around multi audio channels you would like to see?
@@JasonRobertsVideo Yes maybe it’s me just not knowing. But when you have multichannel audio from recording with external audio. It gets weird sometimes to sync. As well as you can’t really control which audio channels you’d like to use as I don’t see the clip attributes section?
Just made this vid that will hopefully answer some of your questions: ruclips.net/video/YShFsdOSRQ0/видео.html
@@JasonRobertsVideo thank you!!!
You're welcome :) :)
The question is what happens if you have multiple clips from the same camera... (Pluraleyes synced them well). Davinci makes the individual clips from the same camera as 'different' cameras unfortunately. If you have a solution, please do share.
Hi, I've got a vid scheduled for the 22nd on exactly this topic: ruclips.net/video/ecdaJJkIH0s/видео.html
Same question I wanted to ask
Now I have created a problem for myself... one of my two videos has come out portrait (filming from above) how do I sort it out in multicam?
Right click video clip, choose Clip Attributes, in the Video tab click the Image Flip buttons or change Image Orientation to fix :) :)
@@JasonRobertsVideo I managed a fix but it was much more painful than what you have just described. Thanks!
Glad you got it sorted :) :)
Seems to not sync properly at all. I have external audio and just wondering if thats the issue
That shouldn't matter - I'm gonna do a tutorial on things like this so stay tuned!! :)
Please for the love of god HELP!! How do you edit colors, framing and so on AFTER having made the multi-cam clip?? I can't find any way to only select all clips for angle 1, 2 etc.
Right click the mult clip in media pool, open in timeline, then edit framing there - watch this video: ruclips.net/video/OCgcqY8rKRk/видео.html
@@JasonRobertsVideo Thank you so much!
You're welcome :) :)
What if your camera angles are all in separate card folders/bins? With another folder/bins with audio?
Assign each clip the same flag color, then go to root bin ,search/filter by flag color, show results from all bins. Now all your clips with the flag color will show next to each other and you can select them all and create the multicam,
@@JasonRobertsVideo Thank you. What is a Root Bin? Do you mean the project bin? Also, I can see a potential problem with this approach. The broadcast productions I work will have many camera cards/files/folders...what will become Bins when imported into DR...shot over many weeks & months. It will be very hard to keep track of the colours, of what colours relate to the many video/audio folders/bins. Plus there are only so many colours, there will be far less colours than Bins.
I understand what you mean, there might be a better way like searching on other camera metadata. You can of course remove the color flag once the multicam clip is created for each scene.
Anyone knows how to modify one camera clip like the zoom/position once the multicam is edited. Like color correction is easy because you can go to colorgrade page and put remote versions to colorgrade all clips of the same camera at once. But when you want to make zoom/position changes to all the clips of one camera angle, you have to go one to one clip changing that? I have like 2h video
Right click the multicam clip in media page, choose open in timeline, select a camera angle, then zoom as you would any other clip
@@JasonRobertsVideo Thank you so much man!
No worries :) I am gonna be doing a multicam tips vid soon with this and other tips :)
The simplest video about multicam. There are dozens of this kind, but many users encounter other situations, for example, show us how to do it if we have two cameras with several files and an audio recorder.
Got several multicam tips vids coming in next few weeks that address common problems so stay tuned :) :)
When I right click on my clips it gives me less than half the options you show here. I am new to Resolve and I haven't been able to do anything because the buttons just don't exist on my end. Beyond frustrated
If you are using the free version of Resolve that might be why or perhaps you're using an older version of resolve?
Sorry no but you can practice the techniques using any footage
Syncing for Multicam using markers DOES NOT work. Tried it four times. Been using DR since version 12 and their whole multicam setup has always sucked.
Hmmm, gonna have to try it again myself and investigate.
My gawd why dont they just add an option to do this by selecting all clips in the media pool or timeline and auto sync the the whole damn thing so you have a nice multple clips synced timeline you can look at and understand?? Plural eyes does this nicely but i dont want to invest in more and more software when davinci being all ai driven and whatnot should have been able to do this by now.. I cant stand the multicam feature in davinci its a nightmare to work with.
Interesting idea, how would Resolve know what clips to auto sync together?
I dont know, maybe selecting the clips in timeline right click sync, or selecting them in the media pool. This is a feature ive been waiting for years for. I used to use plural eyes with premiere pro but its buggy with davinci. Also plural eyes is going to be discontinued according to them. I really don't understand why such a feature isn't much of a priority to them, loads of people do multi cam work and the multicam feature of davinci is really quirky to work with. @@JasonRobertsVideo
Thanks, what do you find quirky/unhelpful about the current multicam features?
I find it difficult to deal with. It seems overcomplicated and doesnt give you full control and flexibility of details. I just prefer to see everything on the timeline in multicam so i have a picture of what the project consists of and all tracks audio levels etc. @@JasonRobertsVideo
Fair enough, I'll have a think about it and see if I can come up with an alternative workflow that might work for you :)
Is it stupidly easy to sync 2 cameras for my kids soccer game that don't link to an external mic and start recording at different times?? All the multi cam vids I have watch involve 1 person sitting in a chair in a small studio, with and external audio recording.
Yes that is easily doable - I would hit record on both cameras when their next to each other and recod some audio that you can use to sync the starts or use a "clap sync" that you can line up in the edit and then just leave them recording and go move the camera where you want to record the game from.
@@JasonRobertsVideo Thanks Jason Ill give it a go.
