HEY! Thanks for the shoutout! I'd love to collab sometime!
ayo!?
Casey is pretty awesome!
Came to Resolve for the free version, stayed for the Studio version.
Same for me, but came from premiere
Same, i came to DR because of premiere. Then i stayed for the color page, the gpu acceleration, the cut page and the fairlight page.
Thats how they get them. Davinci isca fantastic software
Came to Resolve for the color, stayed for Fusion 🤘
the studio version is epic, esp with the speed editor. fusion page gets nicer with a stylus, which i got a couple days ago, and am so glad i did.
Shoutout to Patrick Stirling and MrAlexTech for being so helpful as I DMed them A BUNCH while I edited my first video in Resolve. The community around Resolve is so much better than Adobe. Everyone’s so helpful and nice.
did you ever start your podcast back up? i kinda fell out of the comic scene for a while. glad i saw your comment here. i use to love your videos. glad to be back watching them.
Eyyy thanks man ☺️☺️
So true, not to mention the discord communities - Frame Voyagers server has been a literal life saver for me
the whole BMD DVR community is one of the best positive thing available on the internet
6:22 Actually you can view video tracks in Fairlight. Go to the Timeline view options icon over on the top left of the timeline, then click on "video tracks" in the "track display options" menu
I really like how non-"Industry Standard" software is on the rise lately. Certainly a good and refreshing change from the old (and stagnant) software!
Davinci is the industry standard for color grading, pretty much 99% of films all over the world are graded with resolve, you can probably assume it has been used more than premiere in films and tv shows since they use media composer for editing.
8:50 - Here is how to view the video clips in Fairlight: Click the Timeline options icon, which on this screen is on the top right of the arrangement area, Locate the red arrow on his screen, then follow that bar to the left side, it looks like a rectangle with little rectangles above it (right under the words "Perfect Stream Audio"). That will pop up a little window and you can choose "Video Tracks" and the video tracks will appear as references.
Used Premiere since 1993 version 1.1. 29yrs and I cannot even tell you how many different ways Davinci is better than Premiere. From intake to rendering it is just better in every way and yes 1000 times more stable. The hard part was getting my head around nodes for Fusion but once I did I realized how much better it is. I canceled My Adobe suite sub and bought the studio version of Davinci with speed editor. I mapped in my old hotkeys as well.
Special thanks to all the RUclipsrs who got me through the transition.
Congrats on the Pr to DR transition XD
Woo thank you for the shout out dude! ☺️
In resolve studio, there are two nice tools called Magic Mask and object removal that can help with rotoscoping. They both only exist in the color tab and not fusion, so it's not the greatest, but a solution is to mask out the subject with magic mask in the color page, create a compound clip that can be edited in fusion, do thr same thing with object removal if you need a clean plate, then bring that into fusion, and use merge nodes to achieve your end result. It's not perfect by any means, and I really wish they would bring these tools into fusion, but it's better than not having anything at all! You get a ton of options when doing it too, so try it a few times, fine tune your clean plate and magic mask, and eventually it'll work great, I promise!
There's a fair bit of stuff that is seriously misplaced in the color GUI that should be in Fusion - but it's probably an API issue - the codebase between them is still not fully unified.
Which almost makes it more impressive, merging a bunch of apps into one, like they have with Resolve...
I'm a die-hard Final Cut user, and I have been for years. Resolve is the ONLY editor that has felt good enough to me to switch for actual production work. The feature set Blackmagic put in even the Free version is just incredible.
You can show video tracks on the Fairlight page by opening the Timeline view options>Track display options>Video Tracks. You can even edit the video tracks on the Fairlight page. I use this workflow a lot for video podcasts.
Professional editor here! I recently switched to Davinci Resolve (studio) and have now convinced our entire team to make the switch as well. What you describe in this video is completely on point. It's so fast, feature rich and flexible, it was almost a no-brainer. Opening and working with older projects in Premiere now seems like such a slog.
Regarding Rotoscoping, there is a workaround. Selections and tracking work much better on the color page than in fusion (especially in the studio version). It’s possible to do a selection and tracking in the color page and then re-use the alpha channel from that. Trying to do the same in fusion is a pain. It is better in the color page, not perfect, but better.
I would add Darren Mostyn’s channel to your list of recommended channels. He’s a professional colorist and Resolve Ambassador.
To be fair to fusion, the workflow from Casey's video pretty much resembles all the traditional tools rotoscope artists used to use. Very close to nuke. So I wouldn't call it bad as Epox said but just that adobe is lightyears ahead.
Secondly, AE's rotopaint can be a pain for low quality footage. It's always handy to at least have the tried and true manual roto skills for when A.I. can't understand you.
@@JOLMStruly Right! I kinda ditched the roto tool, even after the update and I either mask (which is quicker now using a graphics tablet) or I use Mocha.. Which is so so much faster than using the rotobrush.. So I think if you're gonna roto stuff in Fusion, best solution would be to get BorisFX Mocha working (i don't actually know if it's a compatible plug in but i sure hope it is)
The dilemma of Resolves propensity for naming things randomly rather than trying to use names people are familiar with in relation to the tool.
Seems a lot of people don’t know it exists, both because it’s new and because it’s not really named anything close to roto lol
@@xanzuls but can you get magic mask to work in fusion? It only works for me in the color page. Then I can render the Alpha channel and user the new file as an input in fusion, but that is a tedious workaround
@@EposVox all I really want to do is too be able to replace the background without owning a green screen. MS Teams does it better and much more easily than both OBS and Resolve.
Davinci Resolve is amazing. Such a powerful editor you can get for free. Even the Studio version is worth the price.
Just for anyone wondering. If you purchase the studio version you'll get access to the 'magic mask' feature in the color page which is pretty much the same rotoscoper as you have in AE. It's that simple. Takes a little bit of processing, but it works great. Just made a video explaining that feature, if you're interested! :)
Yeah, after effect's roto brush 2 is better imo. It's great but there's still some left ouf masking and it's not as clean
@@sabahbubbler Depends - if you choose "better" over "faster" with the magic mask and take time to select your subject carefully, then you'll get crazy results! :)
@@SebastianFriedrichVisuals at that point, may as well use green screen or rotoscope. Using the better setting on Resolve is way too long. Unless there's gtx 20 or 30 series, I think for feasibility, roto brush 2 is better
For the rotoscope, try using the automask (magic mask) feature :)
You can add and subtrack elements you want to track, you can define if it's a person, a feature, etc. (No need to play with nodes here)
It's extremely powerful and works really well for non green screen tracking.
That's when I knew he was a newbie. Lol
Excellent video! Switched to Davinci Resolve myself a couple of years ago from Premiere and never looked back.. On top of that you get Fusion, Color Grading and fairlight all integrated into a single application that does not hog up a ton of system resources.
I switched to DaVinci Resolve because it's free and allowed me to do almost everything I wanted. I have enough subscriptions in my life.
I'm glad you've done this video. Just this morning I decided I'm gonna move away from the Adobe eco-system, I've never really liked being in fixed term subscription contracts and with more businesses like Black Magic and Affinity providing more cost effective and efficient solutions it's great.
I know DaVinci can be a steep learning curve from Vegas or Premiere Pro but the flexibility the program provides and how efficient the tools and elements are which work seamlessly together makes it worth while imo and the community behind it is growing by the day with more resources being accessible for free.
Great to see and hear. I too have used Adobe Premiere and Magix Pro for over 10 years. Horribly expensive for such unstable software. If I add in the countless extra production time due to the crash, it already becomes an astronomical amount. I immediately went for the Studio version, because $300 for a license, including dongle and that great SpeedEditor, to support such a great company. Blackmagic should be an example, because no profit and stable software with almost infinite possibilities. In the line of "instructors" I can recommend 3 top performers: Jason Jadlovsky (sound), S. Friedrich Videographics and Darren Mostyn (color). Bonus (also very special) Creative Video Tips, Learn Color Grading and Film Editing Pro. I fell in love with Davinci Resolve Studio and I'm sure you should watch out for addiction 😄. I should have used this software earlier, but was afraid of the switch. Good luck and I hope the tips are useful to you.
I forgot: with Adobe Premiere all separate software for even more instability and memory filler/killer, with Davinci Resolve everything in 1 package with a beautiful division under tabs.
I LOVE the cut page! Speeds up my work flow so much
I have been using Resolve for about 2 years now, and i love it. i dont have much experience outside of it, so not much of a basis for comparison. I love all 3 of the creators you recommend, and have been following them for some time. just found you though... I am currently in the middle of a very complex rotoscope project in fusion...about 300ish points tracked across 200 or so frames. it is a pain, but will be worth it when i am done.
use runway ml
@@rano12321 why would i use a browser based app when i already have an awesome program? thanks for the suggestion, but no thanks
Number one reason to use Resolve over PP...no subscription. Also, really loving this new channel flow that you have going on. You said you were making changes a few videos back and you have not disappointed. Thanks for your hard work and dedication, not only to your community, but to creators in general. Only video I need now, is one that marries your "Perfect Stream Audio" video from last week with Wavelink.
+1 for going against that subscription model
Very timely video for me. I’m putting out a product next month about creating podcasts for business people. I was editing last week, 13 hours of footage, and Premiere wouldn’t stay open for more than a few minutes without a crash.
This weekend, I finished the project but have downloaded DaVinci to use for the upsell, which I start recording this week.
I just can’t trust Premiere anymore… but have to stick with CC for Illustrator, After Effects, Photoshop/Lightroom etc.
I’m really disappointed in a program I’ve put my trust in for MANY years. Adobe really needs to pull its finger out.
I’d love to leave Premiere but my only problem is I have spent so much $$ on effect presets, templates and other things that don’t have a resolve version (some do) I’m tempted to give it a go anyway after watching this. Some valid points
Same… not to mention dynamic link and creating mogrts… my job is motion graphics heavy and I do a loooot of roto. So I don’t know if I could anytime in the near future.
That is the same reason people give to justify staying in an abusive relationship. You cannot leave it for something better, just because you invested so much into it. It's like investing more into a crypto currency that is sinking just because you spent so much on it already. It's like spending thousands of dollars to fix a car only worth a few hundred.
@@JohnUntivero agree 100% safe to say me and Adobe still have a strong relationship 💪
So glad you Shouted Out Casey!
I used Premiere full time professionally for over 15 years. Switched to Resolve Studio back in 2019 and I am so thankful I found this NLE.
Nice video, and good overview of resolve and it's power, but two corrections:
1. You can show video tracks in Fairlight, it's in the timeline view button options in the timeline tools area next to the marker controls (or in the upper right corner of timeline toolbar if it's an older version)
2. The neural engine rotoscoping isn't in the Fusion page, but it is in the color page and it's called Magic Mask. Casey Farris has a good video on it too.
One other thing for anyone confused about the voiceover, after you patch the mic inputs, you have to click the "R" button on the track you want to record on to arm it for recording, then hit the record button.
Awesome video :) I've been working with Davinci Resolve since 12.4 and they have made some amazing changes for it, from the pricing of Studio and adding so many features. For VSTs yeah VoiceFX doesn't work. But RNNoise does. So if you want to use some AI noise removal on it. There is always that you can use!
After three years, I begun the move from Premier. Premiere always crashed, froze and I had to pull up Audition to edit audio etc. Now I can do everything in Resolve. It’s a tedious process making the switch but it’s going to be work it.
I’m about to run a Resolve workshop at my workplace soon because the entire workflow makes so much more sense than Premiere. Everything from Color Management, to multi-page workflow, to non-subscription based software. There just doesn’t seem like any sufficient reason to stay on Adobe.
you can see the video if you click the button on the top left corner of the time line. you can select which layout you want
This was the video that pushed me to finally get resolve! Ty sir!
Yeah I've been using DaVinci Resolve Studio 17. I love the stability and speed.
I'm very keen to go to Davinci at some point in the future, I use Premiere and After Effects for my own work as a freelance editor so it'd be hard for me to leave, but for my own projects I 100% want to transfer. The only thing is that I use keyframes a lot, and the effects controls in Premiere gives me a lot to work with in easing and transforming, whereas the keyframes in Davinci's Edit page is my biggest hurdle. I know you can use Fusion a lot for these transformations, but it's the native ease of effects presets I keep in Premiere that I favour currently.
Absolutely love this program been using it since 2015
Still gonna use them all since it's how work is for me, but this is all gonna be good.
Keyboard shortcuts are always good to adjust - A will always be the "selection" tool for me - A for arrow! Z and Shift Z for Zoom in and out, B for Add Edit At Current Time Indicated, Q and W for heads and tales ripple and clear editing, all that. I find it surprising how many folks overlook what good hotkeys are actually unassigned in all programs!
It's not nearly as powerful as Powerbins but Premiere users can get SIMILAR functionality by using Productions workflow, btw - but Power Bins vastly beat it in use! (they are what Libraries SHOULD have been in Premiere.)
Libraries are... ugh
@@EposVox Dealing with the annoyances right now with them a lot - only certain things work in them! It needs insane overhaul.
Awesome! Welcome to the world of Resolve!!! 😁👍
As a dedicated user of Vegas for the past decade, it makes me happy to see fresh competition like Davinci taking shape. I'm very intimidated to learn a new tool and I'm not a fan of Adobes subscription only model, so this may just be the ticket for me. Your video gives me some more confidence!
Superb video. Thank you
I really love DaVinci Resolve as well and it saved me a ton of money. Especially as a hobbyist only this is a very function rich tool with a nice UI and I'm very very satisfied
Satisfied enough to upgrade to the pro version including the controller
same. ive enjoyed editing random videos for a hobby, but paying for good premier is just not feasible. resolve has everything i could ever want, and more. all for free.
Regarding video thumbnails in fairlight page you can click "Timeline View Options" and enable "video tracks" icon which will let you see your video tracks on the fairlight page. And also you can view the video on the bottom by simply enabling Scroller video on Timeline View Options
Using Da Vinci Resolve for a few days now and I love it! The only thing I miss from Premiere is seeing the markers of my .wav files recorded in Audition.
For rotoscoping if you got the studio version, you can use the magic mask, which works okayish (most of the times I need to fix some parts but from what I’ve seen, most people have no problem)
If you are using the free version, you can either use fusion like you said or create a mask and track it
I haven’t had too much luck with the mask+track tho
I agree. I hated DaVinci so much at first, but now I love it and would never go back to Premiere. My problems were because I expected it to be like Final Cut or Premiere or even Avid, but it's just not quite the same. Like playing a left handed guitar or something. Same with Fusion, I expected it to be like After Effects, but the node thing is actually really cool once you figure it out. Though, I have to agree, the rotoscoping could use some work, but the little effect version in the editor usually works well for me with an actual greenscreen to composite out.
I've only ever recorded unscripted and single scene videos because I didn't want to edit them. Decided last week the longer the videos get the closer to impossible that gets. Downloaded resolve and set it up today. Thanks for th video and pointing out the other creators explaining resolve.
Look at magic mask on the color page for the rotoscoping automation you are looking for. In Fairlight at the top left is an icon to choose the track layout and you can enable video tracks there.
in Fairlight you can activate the video tracks by pressing the small button left above the timeline (its the same button like in edit mode, where you can do the settings for track heights, display options and so on)
Picked Resolve thanks to your videos. It is amazing.
In fairlight click the timeline icon to see the video, however this does impact how the cutting and blade tools work so test with and without the video tracks being displayed.
is there an easy way to mask things, like it's done in vegas or premiere?
cause in Resolve I have to really recreate the layers like they are in the edit tab inside the fusion one or am I missing something to simplify this?
masking tools inside the edit tab would be so much better.
Hello this is the first video i see on your channel, your video is good but may i ask a question about this premiere pro to resolve, i have edited video in premiere pro before and i already tried resolve for a week but in my view i can easily do my job on premiere rather than resolve,so should i change to resolve and push my self or can i still sit using premiere? Thank you
I wished I could get used to Resolve but I can't use it. My workflow became slower with it.
Also, does Resolve still randomizes the order of your clips when you import them directly to your timeline?
I was planning to get into video editing and my uncle recommended resolve. I hope to see more vids of resolve soon.
"Resolve just gets out of my way. I don't have to hack all these work-arounds with it."
Agreed. When I made the switch I was surprised at how easy was and, as you say, far less need for hacks.
Definitely agree on PowerBins and Adjustment Layers (in place of presets).
I just tied to premiere for the hotkeys... is there a "ripple delete left or right" hotkeys?
I have a hp omen 17 with an RTX 2070 and 40gb ram. Should my 100mbs Sony a6400 footage be lagging so much in resolve?
Someday I need to give it another look. I was an old school Final Cut Pro user from its early days with Apple through Final Cut Pro 7. It was great. Then Final Cut Pro X came out and away went features, or just hidden away, or something else to make it more complicated. Used it somewhat infrequently but during the pandemic I had a few virtual orchestra projects to edit. After some struggles in FCPX I decided to try Resolve but I had even more trouble trying to learn a new piece of software, so I went back to FCP for the time being. I do intend to check it out again, but there's never really a good time when you want to do a specific thing and you need to learn a whole new program to do it!
I am trying to edit some vlog videos for a friend, they record on their iPhone 12 Pro Max. I tried 1080p 30fps and 1080p 60fps but either are quite slow to edit on my machine, even after optimizing media or using proxy. My CPU is a i5-8300H (4 cores, 8 threads) with 16GB of RAM. It's not the best but I should be able to edit 1080p 30fps, right? I read that iPhone's video format does not play very well with DaVinci Resolve, is that true? Should I convert my videos first to another codec? If so, which program should I use and which codec should I pick? I am using the free version of DaVinci Resolve. Thanks!
how can i do it in Davinci Resolve Timeline move forward and backward with mouse Scroll like Premiere pro ?
If you need to rotoscope in Resolve you can use the Magic Mask on the color page. It's not as good as After Effects in my experience but its good enough for most use cases
I opted for adobe after signing up for the student plan hehe. I like audition still and want to learn photoshop. The two third party apps I use will still work with resolve though when I choose to switch.
I noticed you have a DaVinic Resolve stream deck setup.. Do you have a link to a preset as I am struggling with finding one and I am New to Reslove also so I would find this very very handy as I am currently doing the Training videos on Blackmagic. Thank you for reading this.
As for roto tools... If you're doing a person, try magic mask in the color tab. It's wicked impressive.
Random resolve question. You can hold control and scroll to scrub through the timeline and alt and scroll to zoom. Is it possible to change it so that you hold control instead of alt or hold nothing instead of control. Cause I'm used to scrolling to scrub through timeline and holding control and scroll to zoom, and I can't get used to it, and I can't find a setting for changing it. Also when zooming in resolve it always zooms out way to much unless I use the zoom bar. I don't have enough inbetween points when scrolling with mouse wheel. Any settings for changing this?
As a brand new channel my first couple videos were made with other video editing software and I thought it was decent enough since I was new.
But 3rd try is the charm I guess because I downloaded DaVinci and never looked back. My quality compared to my first videos are immaculate and I couldn't be happier. Once you get a hang of how everything works it just feels so intuitive and natural. I will never use anything except Davinci and I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone looking for great video editing software.
Your room is wild but fun looking! 👍
Hey Epos - you missed Magic Mask!!! Its in the color tab - and most of us do our Roto in the color tab these days because you can combine normal mask tracking with magic mask - The playback isnt great but if you print your work its just fine!!! It uses some form of ai/machine learning if I understand correctly. I use it all the time and can answer any qs you have if needed. .//// SO HAPPY YOU ARE IN RESOLVE
I'll try it out. Hopefully the learning curve isn't that big transferring from Premiere and using After Effects as well.
fusion just ain't there yet...and the learning curve is very very steep without a good library of yt videos on it.
Finally! Somebody who knows what they’re talking about. I gave up premiere Pro about a year ago… When resolve was 16 it really sucked… When it was upgraded to 17 it became miraculously better. When I jump back into premiere Pro now it feels like a toy. You are absolutely right Resolve is better than premiere Pro in absolutely every possible way. And although for pure graphics nothing can touch after affects, but there are things that fusion does way better than after affects. And in real time.
Good video… No rock music behind your voice, no ridiculous jokes, no two minute intro… you’re a breath of fresh air.
Oh, there is one thing that premiere pro does better than Resolve… Just one. I love it that you can make the trim tool full screen in the record monitor. Very easy to move one frame at a time. Wish resolve would do that.
ive been using resolve for years and create some pretty cool effects at this point its a great tool
I prefer Hitfilm Express over Resolve mainly because i dont get having to switch pages all the time
I've used Davinci Resolve for 4 years on and off. Hated everything Adobe then and now. The free version has everything I need. Might even buy the Studio version since its OTP, but so far I can workaround paid features with Fusion and third-party software. Only issue I've had is how much storage it yoinks via Vol0, it caches every project timeline. After deleting all my old finished projects it freed up 250GBs.
How do you get to power bins? Are they the same as Smart bins?
No those are different. They’re just under view - show power bins
Press the "Film strip" icon to the left, under the timeline name. There you can choose to see the timeline and so on. Just like you can in the edit tab 👍
Had the free version for two days, and popped for the paid version without any buyers remorse. It's a "Pay Once" and keep forever license, beats leasing [fleecing] any day. Besides they support LINUX !!
You can see the Video tracks in the Failight-tab by clicking on the timeline button over the audiotracks and choose "enable videotrack" ;)
You cam directly copy all hotkey presets in Davinci resolve. No need to map them individually.
I like the idea of going to davinci to step up my colour grading without dealing with the trip. But don't want to learn something new and I don't have any issues with premiere, it doesn't crash really (can't remember the last time it did and I am using it most days)
I need Adobe for Photoshop anyway for any graphics stuff. I feel like people that have issues with premiere must be doing something wrong as once I was set up properly. Haven't had an issue since
I may have to try Devinci some day. I like premiere but I'm not 100% tied to it.
i use scripting in ae with premiere together. is there something similar that i can use a template and scripting to make animations? or is this like any other "don't use expensive software because there is a ffos version" because i realy hate whenever peaple say that for example ms office is bad because ms?! but no ffos version of excel can compete with excel not even close. im not against learning new stuff but automatisation via scripting is the best thing ever. an ae template which you can drag in the premiere project which has fields where you can input your stuff and the script handles everything else is more than a nice to have.
Have you tried to mask in "color"-tab? There is this magic mask feature.
I've been editing in Vegas for over a decade now and thinking about switching. Nothing wrong with Vegas really, I love using it still, but damn does Davinci have some awesome time-saving features. It does feel weird to jump to another software after spending a decade mastering one, but thus is life I guess.
Literally all I want Blackmagic to add to resolve is a customizable layout like premiere
What if you're a heavy after effects user?
After my most recent Premiere Pro update, it now crashes my entire PC routinely. It’s sooooo frustrating. May have to explore this option.
Blackmagic has some really good video tutorials as well, on how to use DaVinci Resolve, on their RUclips channel. They are pretty long, but also goes very deep into how to use the software.
They are well worth a watch, if you want to learn Resolve.
The videos are almost all dedicated to a specific section of the software, like videos about Fairlight (audio editing) Color for color editing etc.
And don't just watch their latest videos. Even the older ones might teach you something, that won't come up in the latest videos.
and you will have to use after effects still cos resolve cant do most things
In Fairlight, if you click on the timeline view option box on the upper left corner of the track view, you can enable video tracks to be seen in Fairlihjt
Good to know. Thank you.
Omg that 200 tabs on the last clip about rotoscope hahaha
You can display all of your video tracks in Fairlight, by enabling the in the Track Display Option of the Timeline View Options icon which sits right to your timecode.
Thanks for posting this information.
I use it because it’s the only professional editor for Linux. Although it’s completely broken on AMD APUs on that os, and it is a bit of a ram hog. Doesn’t run great on my 4770K with 16 GB of RAM or my Ryzen 5 with 32GB of RAM
It also doesn’t seem to have network support for anything that isn’t centOS. I use a usb dongle instead. It also has audio issues.
Been using resolve for a while, I do have issues with it.
#1 the previews load really slow or not at all despite cache settings.
#2 occasionally it just won't launch at all. It goes through the motions but nothing happens.
#3 The system will choose the wrong codec for a video file and it will encode with no sound.
#4 the timeline never defaults to the size of the video file.
Solution to 1: your pc might just not be able to hold up with the footage you put onto it. Set your preview res to 1/2!
2 and 3- have never heard of that before.
4. Set your timeline res manually in the project settings.
@@sebastianfriedrich9254 of course set the timeline manually is a work around.
But I shouldn't have to set the timeline to the size of the video file. It should automatically default to the size of the video file.
If I am working with a 720p file it should default to 720p. If I am working with a 4k file it should default to 4k.
Even with preview at minimum size it still lags trying to play the preview.
@@GGMentor No, it shouldn't. For this you can use project presets so you can customize every little bit of your video!
Something to note, if nobody else has mentioned it yet. You absolutely CAN save presets for all kinds of custom effects, just like in premiere, and have them show up, nicely organised, in the effects bin, but it is somewhat confusing and awkward until you understand it.
In essence, there is no ability to save presets in the EDIT window, however, if you create the effect you want in Fusion (even just as simple as a single node, if you only want settings for one effect), then you are able to right click, and "save macro". This will let you save it as a preset which will show up as custom node in FUSION. It will NOT show up in the edit page until you do a little more work.
In fusion, in the effects panel, right click on "templates", and hit Open Folder. This should bring you to a folder called "Templates", with two more folders inside it. If it doesn't, you hit open folder on the wrong thing (some things will open different folders or not allow you to open folder at all). You can also get to it manually if you want, via (at least on windows) You/Appdata/Roaming/Blackmagic Design/Davinci Resolve/Support/Fusion/Templates.
However, we're not staying in that folder for long. In order to get your effect into the Edit panel, you need to find your .setting (macro) file, which is in a different folder. Back up one folder to "Fusion", then open "Macros". Grab your .setting file, head back into templates, and now you need to decide where to put it. For it to show up in the Edit window, it needs to, at least, be at Templates/Edit/Effects/YourEffect.setting. It will then show up under a "user" section in the edit panel. However, if you want to organize things better, make subfolders. All folders and effects inside of Templates/Edit will be auto-detected and nicely turned into custom sections inside the effects panel in the Edit window.
Note that they will all show up UNDER the root category of Effects, and you CANNOT create custom root categories - they won't show up. I organize my file tree as Effects/Custom/AllMyStuff in order to make it easier.
With that, you should now have your own effect presets, accessible right within the Edit window!
Additionally, it works for transitions too, which is something I love, as Premiere doesn't have any kind of support for custom transitions or transition presets (you're forced to use effect presets and adjustment layers). Creating custom transitions is pretty easy - add any transition between clips, right click it, hit "convert to fusion transition", then head into fusion and play with the nodes however you want. I won't get into all the complexities of it, but there's plenty of tutorials. Once it's done, just... select everything, save as macro, and move around as usual, but put it under Templates/Edit/Transitions/ instead, and bam! You can now drag-and-drop that custom transition right onto clips, just like any other transition.
They will run much slower when saved that way so I tend to avoid it unless I’m using actual fusion nodes
God damn, thank you
Yup!! I keep preaching the word!
Bought the studio version last year and have never looked back. I have never had a crash in Resolve.
Yep, just made the switch myself
wp man thank you!
yes!!! I have recently switch to davinchi resolve, premier pro gets clunkier every year and it lags so bad
