Playback was the best I’ve ever experienced with these compressed formats. I was pleasantly surprised on how peppy the editing experience was. The footage was a mix of 10-bit, 8-bit, HD and UHD, all from the GH5. I had a review of the TRI-8 that I had not started yet so why not! Editing A Review With DaVinci Resolve 14Īfter doing some testing and finding things to be pretty stable I decided to go ahead and do a full edit and see how it goes.
Plug and play. The only issue I had is you can’t set your levels yet but it works very well. I don’t have any solutions to this: I used a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 with a RODE NT1-A and it didn’t require any workarounds. Some users are finding issues with USB microphones not showing up and connecting to Fairlight. It isn’t perfect but remember it’s still in beta. I used Fairlight to record my voiceover for the Aputure TRI-8 review I did. Well this is now possible with Fairlight integration. One very nice feature that DaVinci Resolve was never capable of doing was voiceovers directly to the timeline. This saves time and makes things much more simple. I like this a lot since you don’t have to leave the software and round trip to edit video, sound and color grade. With the improved speed of editing in DaVinci Resolve 14 and the integrated audio features of Fairlight, Resolve Version 14 is closer to a fully functional standalone editing platform than ever before. BMD acquired the powerful and popular Fairlight back in September 2016 and instead of making it a standalone offering they included it in DaVinci Resolve 14.
At NAB 2017 Blackmagic Design introduced version 14 with a lot of new features including a big one: Fairlight integration for heavy audio editing.
