Hey Jake, I played around with this for a bit.. Looks interesting. Wish there was a bit better way to display the nodes.. it can get kind of messy, but definitely works. Also wish there was a way to automatically set/link the layer name to the main node feeding into the input.. ex. you attach some media, set the node name.. when you connect would be nice if they could auto use that for the node name (update layer name if you rename the node_..Ex. set nose name to Blue Background.. When you attach.. layer would be called blue background... .BUT would get super tricky if you had a big node tree.. not sure how they would know which node to use for the layer naming.
Hey! I totally agree. I would be happy if it would just use the name of the node that directly goes into it. In my example, Glow1. Then I could rename that node if I wanted. It's still in beta so let's hope they add that in an update!
For me, this is huge. It simplifies Fusion in so many ways. The complexity of merge node spiderwebs was often too much for motion gfx. It's why I kept going back to After Effects. Can't wait to try it out.
Multi merge is cool man but those USD tools are so much cooler IMO, they even added an USD hydra delegate renderer that renders 3D scenes in Fusion in realtime. Nuke recently added USD based 3D system with their recent update version 14, this Fusion update is gonna give Nuke a run for their money. Oh yeah.
Man, I genuinely despise this node from the bottom of my heart. This node is such a slap in the face for Fusion users who've been asking for so many features in Fusion, but instead we get this, a literally opposite of the philosophy of nodal compositing. They might as well just delete Fusion and start making a layer based software at this point because what's the point of walking on two paths at the same time, you don't go anywhere. This update was definitely enforced by people who came from AE and didn't learn Fusion much but wanted to change Fusion to work like instead of learning it. Because this node makes no logical sense. The 3D merge node makes a lot more sense for having multiple input because it's 3D but this one so stupid and illogical.
This is great. Thx for this video! Coming from Hitfilm, this is perfect. Power of nodes merged with layers. Staying organized shouldn’t be that much of an issue. The beta seems to get more oomph out of my older rig too. Less stutter in the editor.
Just a new user to DR Studio and I can see the power of this new feature. Already using the Beta. Looking forward to the transcription ability too. Good stuff Jake.
wow! breakthrough stuff in Fusion. Now I have a better handle on how to use it. This Layer mothod is going to make my life a lot easier learning Fusion - and - as it matures, the layers mode will only get better. Great stuff from the team at BM/ Davinci Resolve. And your explanation kept we tatching so I sub'd! Thank u Jake.
This video is just a waste of time. I wanted to know how to change the opacity of all the foregrounds all at once instead of changing the parameter in each foreground. I figured out 5 seconds after I stopped watching this video. This is just for people who has never heard of multimerge. No trouble shooting
is there anyway to move the all the elements on the multimerge node together? I am trying to reposition a small composition, but I can't find a way to move all together.
Love your videos! I think the soundeffects for the text are a bit loud, especially in the biginning of the video. Also it might be cool to have a little variation in the different soudeffects for the text. Your doing amazing. Great video.🙂
Hey man! Great video and Great editing, keep up the good work🤘🙏 Always fun to see "video" youtubers that can prove their credibility by just having a great production value.
I like the glowing circles and particles, You are Awesome Jake! Thank You so much. Kindly give more tutorials on making such cool things like these circles.
This is amazing! As someone who switched from adobe to resolve i always had something like this in mind for merge... Like how it was possible for 3D in fusion that you could add everything in a single merge node... I love it makes things alot easier
Being an after effects person, to me fusion has always been a cluster fuck. This takes me one step closer to being able to use fusion. Just discovered your channel. But for me, after effects is still 100 times easier to use. Though I am getting my feet wet !
@@Docfly62 There is no need to pre comp for starters which is a huge benefit. You can create multiple comps then choose the one you like. Nearly every node has versions which allows you to try out different settings to see what works best. Oh, there is no need for the Dynamic Link workflow which is even better. You can save out node trees and access them wherever you need them.

You can group nodes to clean up the node tree.

Editing Photos in Fusion will be way easier.
Did You try Strom as Renderengine ? And USD ?
Working on a video for that now!

This thing is going to be so useful
Yeah I can't wait to see what people do with it!
nice video ... Ill use it more to group certain nodes together rather than inputting everything to it
Great super practical example of why you would want to use the multi merge node- hit the sub button immediately
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!
Yeah, me too - this was very well demonstrated.
This is great. Thx for this video!

Yeah it's a really cool way they found to merge the two systems! I've noticed speed improvements as well! Really exciting!
Just a new user to DR Studio and I can see the power of this new feature. Already using the Beta. Looking forward to the transcription ability too. Good stuff Jake.
Yeah that one is gonna be really cool as well! Thanks!
Your Fusion tutorials are easily my favourites. Keep up the good work man
Thanks Steve!
Jake, new fusion tutorials better be on their way because we've been waiting. 🔥💯
That's insane. I love it.
Please cover USD support
It's a great move by Davinci and a nice tutorial.
So davinci finally using layers for nodes 💀
Hi Jake. This is great. Can you add a Camera to a MultiMerge node? And move through the layers with the Camera? Thanks! …Rowby.
One the best guy explainning fusion
Excellent 👍🏼

And your explanation kept we tatching so I sub'd! Thank u Jake.
...”just like after effects”... they could kill AE if they bridge a layer workflow or expand this or similar merge nodes. That would be awesome!
This video is just a waste of time. I wanted to know how to change the opacity of all the foregrounds all at once instead of changing the parameter in each foreground. I figured out 5 seconds after I stopped watching this video. This is just for people who has never heard of multimerge. No trouble shooting
Whaat?? That's insane.
Yeah! It's a really cool feature they added!
is there anyway to move the all the elements on the multimerge node together? I am trying to reposition a small composition, but I can't find a way to move all together.
you dont need to add a whoosh sound effect everytime something is moving man, and the camera shake in the beginning is nauseating
Solid explanation. Thank you for getting to the point 😂
This is a super nice update! DaVinci is killing it
Just when I was getting used to nodes instead of layers.
Love your videos! I think the soundeffects for the text are a bit loud, especially in the biginning of the video. Also it might be cool to have a little variation in the different soudeffects for the text. Your doing amazing. Great video.🙂
I appreciate the feedback! I'll work on it for the next video!
Hey man! Great video and Great editing, keep up the good work🤘🙏
Always fun to see "video" youtubers that can prove their credibility by just having a great production value.
Wow that is huge, thanks mate!
Hehe ! that's useful less merge nodes thx 4 the vid.
blackmagic continue to impress me
this helped me so much! thank you :)
Nice work, Jake! :) That's a very interesting node and definitely gets Resolve to be less intimidating to the newer Adobe converts.
Fusion 👀 After Effects
I like the glowing circles and particles, You are Awesome Jake!
Thank You so much. Kindly give more tutorials on making such cool things like these circles.
This is amazing! As someone who switched from adobe to resolve i always had something like this in mind for merge... Like how it was possible for 3D in fusion that you could add everything in a single merge node... I love it makes things alot easier
Is it possible to instead of deleting all the keyframes to be able to go back one and adjust or delete that specific one and keep going?
Yep! That works as normal! I was just showing an easy way to get rid of all of them.
Great explanation. Blackmagic is really adding a lot of great features lately.
Please do cover 3d aspect of workflow in fusion..I know there has been some updates there
🎉🎉
Dope! 👌🏻
😃🙏
Great explanation, nice one. Keyframing the layer order is great.
Being an after effects person, to me fusion has always been a cluster fuck. This takes me one step closer to being able to use fusion. Just discovered your channel.
But for me, after effects is still 100 times easier to use. Though I am getting my feet wet !
That's awesome! Fusion has a bit of a learning curve but becomes so much more powerful when you understand how it works!
So may I ask why are you motivated to learn Fusion if AE is so much easier? I truly want to know and not trying to start a VFX war LOL
