I used the free version for roughly 6 months and was hooked on Davinci Resolve 18. I just had to step up my level to the Pro version and have even helped edit 2 multi award winning documentaries about my life living with MSA. Great video and love the magic mask tool.

[@MaximoJoshua]

I mean, I think the fact that it is just a one time payment is one of the best features. I love to support companies that don't try to rope you into subscriptions. Besides that...magic mask

[@Danvinci1]

I’m working with blackmagic on some content for this channel right now and they have honestly been amazing to work with. You can really tell they really care about user experience

[@christian-schubert]

​@@Danvinci1Cool! Are they at some point going to fix the issue that rendering h.264/265 occasionally produces visual glitches/artefacts in the final output?

[@GiuseppeFerro]

​@@Danvinci1could you ask to blackmagic for some discount code for black Friday? I want to buy the studio version. Perhaps I want to buy the speed editor too 'cause the license is included

[@user-sl309jd90]

So much effort put into this amazing edit! Looking forward to seeing more Studio version features!

[@SandmanofTerra]

This was great. Convinced to buy Studio in fact

[@wearetrackclub]

Nice walkthrough, Dan! Love how you put this together, super insightful and fun to watch 😁

[@Danvinci1]

That’s the idea glad people like it 😊

[@BrokerBasil]

i purchased Studio about a year ago - the voice isolation was included in the free (slight snafu on BM's part?) version momentarily and I liked it so it was time to give back to BM for this great software. So Magic Mask and Voice Isolation are my two main reasons to have Studio and now of course I love these Studio videos 😁 Oh and I also got the deal with the free Speed Editor so it was a no-brainer. Thanks for the great videos.

[@marcgallagher32]

Really nice video mate. Love your editing.

[@Danvinci1]

Thank you! 😊

[@deborahdeamorim8889]

Love your editing, while giving great content!

[@Probbie]

Great roundup. Thanks Dan!! 👍

[@Danvinci1]

Thank you!

[@CreatorSteve-nm5ug]

Really nice video with excellent transition clips. Thank you.

[@JonathanEBoyd]

Very solid list

[@jeffg4686]

Magic Mask rocks. I'm just coming up to speed on video editing as a whole, and was thinking about how to mask a person as they're moving - Magic Mask!

[@chadmullins7553]

Another amazing video! I already have studio version and yes, it is absolutely worth it!

[@Danvinci1]

It so is isn’t it 💪

[@Happy.Place.]

This made me happy! I learned how to use the studio version more and more today! Keep doing what makes you happy! :D

[@gaetanobruno5889]

Optical flow is insane, but if you also turn on "SPEED WARP," it becomes perfect-so much better. It does use a lot of GPU, though. I had a shot of a bird, and it was unbelievable what it did with the wing movements.

[@sameermange2049]

your video was not boring, it was fast paced, funny, witty and then the noisy pony, you got yourself a sub!

[@Danvinci1]

Thanks so much

[@jeroenrotty]

Nice tips & your own video editing skills are on point :D

[@evi1ways]

Your effort is noticed. Great job.

[@IcelandAdventures]

Got studio for one reason months ago for the auto text. The rest is candy on the cake ! Thanks Dan!

[@Danvinci1]

No problem 😉

[@tristanrujano]

Wonderful helpful video!

[@Danvinci1]

Thanks 🙏

[@ThatBritishMo]

This video is absolutely awesome! Thanks so much for making this. Liked, subscribed, and I'm going to be watching all your videos now!

[@AllThingsFilm1]

Excellent video. Subscribed.

[@rensocruz1866]

Studio version completely worth it 👍

[@PrimalVideo]

Great video! I appreciate all the time and effort you've put into this, well done! Justin.

[@Danvinci1]

Thanks dude! :)

[@jabstunt]

thank a lot 😊😊😊

[@danielbowie]

I subbed just because your of your name and your energy. Keep it up! haha I love it

[@sankiwoki]

Thank you dan

[@Danvinci1]

Awh thank you so much! ☺️

[@KismetBP]

Excellent video +1 sub ❤🤘

[@TheSplayMan]

Great vid 👌

[@Danvinci1]

Thanks mate this one took sometime to get ready appreciate it 😊

[@Nader-sama]

يا اللهى , لقد قمت بعمل رائع حقا فى هذا الفيديو ايها المحترف 🌟🌟

[@woodcraft_cz]

I started on premiere and got to love it until I hated it (regular glitchy exports) tried FCP and davinci, was fond of FCP but left when I discovered you couldn’t duck audio so ended up on DVR, it was a bit of a slog at first but ended up getting the speed editor (best way imo to obtain studio) and things just started picking up and all I can say is Iv never since looked or considered revisiting the others. The company have been amazing in terms of updates and Iv had little to no real issues with it. Such a superb bit of software 🤟

[@rudolfabelin383]

Subscribed! Just upgraded to 18.6.4 Studio.

[@randallmacdonald4851]

Already got Studio and love it. Yes, all that you showed here is dead-on accurate. I DIDN'T know about multiple GPUs. I have a 2080ti but I'm going to see if I can't add a 960 in as a second GPU.

[@Danvinci1]

Just make sure you have enough power for a duo GPU set up 👍

[@MonirHossain-vw7cp]

You are so underrated man❤❤❤

[@Danvinci1]

Thanks dude Only just got started so much more to come 💪

[@lukaszbudzinski]

yes, it's worth it

[@steveh4895]

Great video Dan. especially the magic mask and voice isolation. I'm getting to the point where I am going to have to replace my "Horse and cart" powered laptop (no rtx video GPU) with something with a lot more horsepower. What do you use? Keep the tutorials coming 🙂

[@Danvinci1]

I use an RTX 3070 and i7 12th gen I built my PC on another channel about a year ago - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqekepmOh9xjl8k

[@jburch5752]

If you can afford it, get Studio. It handles you CPU better and has a ton of features which will give you more flexibility.

[@AndreiPascu]

my man has 2015 style intro hahha great video man

[@Danvinci1]

😂😂😂

[@flightographist]

I'm getting studio this month but so far in free I have been using a luma keyer, a blur, and a color corrector to acheive halation. Another method, slightly not as effective, is an edge detect, a color corrector, and a glo.

[@grahamf695]

Buy the Speed Editor, which makes editing much faster. Resolve Studio is bundled with it, so it’s a great deal.

[@DairyAirGunners]

Already have Studio, and yes it's worth it.

[@CreatorSteve-nm5ug]

During Nov/Dec 2022, BM sold their Speed Editor bundled with Studio for $299. I really hope they do it again this year. I recall the cost was $500 for Studio before the last price reduction. A no brainier for video pros and enthusiasts. 😅

[@ashishkumarchaturvedi5070]

I have variety of footage which have different aspect ratio from old tape like VHS,DVCAM,Mini DV,HDV and also FHD footage. when we import these footage then by default all clips have same aspect ratio of sqare 1:1 but i want original aspect ratio. In other software like premiere pro when we import clips then it maintain original aspect ratio of original clips but here all the clips have 1:1 aspect ratio. Here from clip attribute we can change aspect ratio but having 200 to 800 clips in a project , it is not possible to do . Is any setting or any solution to solve this in davinci resolve.

[@truckedupevs]

Holy crap, wow! I mean, holy-shit-crap wow! Editing booootiful, bro. I am such a noob and need to study the snot out of Davinci Resolve - and there, in the distance, I saw a shimmering light - DanVinci! Toootally subscribed (Help me Obi-wan. I need jedi-shit-buckets of guidance)!

[@millenniumhydra7880]

I was waiting for audio transcribe, he didn't add it while its so beautiful to work with, because you can edit your event, stream, or any long footage you have with just the subtitles and it creates automatic ins and out☺☺☺

[@Danvinci1]

One of my upcoming videos covers transcribe 📝 💪

[@Namesarewords]

question how to your do that transition at 0:27???

[@stehume]

Hi Dan, good video a always.I think the free version has optical flow as i'm sure i have messed about with that in the past and i only have the free version. Well the studio version does offer a good few more things. So would the studio version play better then the free version on a macbook pro M1? Good to see your subs going up still, you deserve to have everyone all the best

[@Danvinci1]

Oh that’s interesting 🤔 I didn’t think about systems without a GPU. I want to say yes as I know it does run extremely well on a MacBook from experience. Due to its amazing optimisation. But definitely have a little google around to make sure 👍

[@stehume]

you did your text behind you by rotoscope ?@@Danvinci1

[@Obrempongtv123]

new here keep it up

[@Artofrecreation]

Can you did it the ryan nangle in final cut pro editing skill to davinci resolve..

[@Digibeatle09]

If I had 32K - I'd buy a new car with it .... but seriously ... I've tried the voice isolation feature and it's great - thanks for the video !

[@unseenhaze]

yes

[@Danvinci1]

Yes

[@seancusson72]

The one thing that gets glossed over a lot with h.265 is that yes it might playback fine but scrubbing with it is still terrible.

[@authenticmusicchartstv]

can u make a tutorial on how to do faceswap in video in davinci

[@Lalambz]

i had to buy it before it gets to the point where its so valuable they’ll spike the price!!

[@LyLyGreenLuvtm]

I just bought Davinci Studio and for some reason in the middle of video editing I lost ALL my tracks and previous projects from the free version . I am devastaded and had to do it all over. What went wrong?

[@user-xq9st4lm8t]

i updated mine to 18.6, when i opened the new version it looked zoomed in and too big for my screen what to do?

[@chrisdoratproductions8680]

i like the horse

[@klavstube]

Imho subtitles feature is almost unusable if you want them to visually attractive. Yes, text detection is good bud customisability is subpar at best.

[@Danvinci1]

For now 😉

[@kerokura]

Is there auto sub feature with different languages or only English?

[@dicktonyboy]

Given the escalating price of the alternatives with the low price and massive value for money Studio represents - paying the one-off immediate payment was a no 'no-brainer'. Happy to contribute to these disruptors coffers - whether I use the additional features or no. :)

[@Truck_Kun_Driver]

Amazing video! I wanna ask though, can it auto cut the empty gaps in voice-over?

[@Danvinci1]

Look into a software called Re-cut 👍

[@Truck_Kun_Driver]

@@Danvinci1 ah, I've heard of it. Pretty neat piece of software, but out of my budget right now.

[@Danvinci1]

I think you get 5 free exports with it might be wrong@@Truck_Kun_Driver

[@Truck_Kun_Driver]

@@Danvinci1 yeah we do get 5 free first

[@JunkBondTrader]

@@Truck_Kun_Driver You can do this in resolve, no need for paid third party apps. You simply transcribe your timeline, then when the script pops up, hit the ellipses in the top right corner and hit 'remove silence', highlight the script, and then hit the 'append' button in the bottom right of the transcription window, and it will place your clips on the timeline minus the silence.

[@NNTheGreat]

all these features available in previous18.5 studio version

[@Danvinci1]

yep

[@doppiak2227]

Optical flow is avaiable also in the free version

[@JunkBondTrader]

most of these features are.

[@daristontchouto6614]

Please what version of DaVinci resolve do you use please ? Do you recommend the studio version 18.6 ?

[@Danvinci1]

I recommend the newest update 18.6.2 because 18.6 is unstable

[@daristontchouto6614]

@@Danvinci1 thank you 💕, I'm really a fan of your videos You give me so much inspiration for my videos Please I would like to know the perfect computer for video editing with DaVinci Because I suspect that my computer is may be not suitable

[@Danvinci1]

Thanks mate! I do work really hard on each and every video so I do appreciate it! It really depends on what kind of content you are editing. My desktop is a 12th Gen i7 and a RTX 3070@@daristontchouto6614

[@FOTOLOCO_]

Just need to know how do you find your meme-s/shorts in the videos? 😁

[@Danvinci1]

a website called Playphrase.me

[@EdwardKilner]

Subscribed. Mostly because of your speaking. A bit fast, but enunciation is excellent. Old, hearing aids (Bluetooth), iPad, sometimes I struggle understanding English, which is my native language. 🇨🇦. Your cuts are a bit too aggressive. A lively pace is fine, but I can’t learn much at high speed. Still, I’ll give you a chance.

[@delmasskipper]

Is Magic Mask available in the free version?

[@Danvinci1]

No unfortunately 😢

[@AMR421RA]

Do you have a discord for davinci resolve help?

[@Danvinci1]

No not yet been helping people in the comments for the time being

[@WizZarDHouSeRecorDs]

i discovered halation the same way bro

[@JanneAirDotCom]

I really like the video. And you as a presenter. But I gotta ask: Do you claim you're not James Acaster's little brother?

[@Danvinci1]

I'm not even close to funny when compared to James

[@merlin2600]

I tried to buy it but couldn't make a professional purchase with VAT invoice on their webshop. I was sent to their distributors who are most often selling high end camera and video equipment and who are usually not seeling online. Quite a pity in 2023.

[@O.W_Films]

7:01 LOL

[@flyguy6951]

Are all of these free?

[@Danvinci1]

These features are found in the Studio Version unfortunately

[@mrshadow2514]

I`d like to challange the accuracy of subtitlinng using my accented English :))))

[@AkbarAli12314]

After using davinci studio, now I found the premier pro is a toy 😂 yes really.

[@JunkBondTrader]

These aren't 18.6 features, some of these have been around forever. Deflicker, optical flow, hardware accelerated encoding, noise reduction. Have these not been features for years? I think most of these are available in the free version too... Deflicker and halation are among the biggest features? lol ok.

[@Danvinci1]

I think your forgetting it’s my list… 18.6 is to put a date on the video so that future viewers don’t get confused when I don’t put a feature on the list that doesn’t exist right now.

[@superzerob4131]

dont tell me that they all are in paid version

[@Danvinci1]

Not all of them but quite a lot are....

[@user-ms2mr2mc3g]

Good info, but too much b-roll/comedy

[@dav]

Actual video starts @0:30

[@sethhamilton5824]

Is that your mom’s bedroom?

[@Danvinci1]

No its your moms room

[@david_garibaldi]

its exhausting too watch this video. Adding clips and memes every 10 seconds is not particular cool anymore. It feels like watching a video made by a boomer who is giggling all the time while watching its own content and findig himself REAL funny. its so distracting that i couldn't focus on the real interesting part which was the reason why i clicked on the thumbnail in the first place. i had to leave after 2 minutes.
