Create A Tape Stop Effect - DaVinci Resolve PowerTip

Yoooooooooooooo im horrible at thinking of names to search for stuff and passed ur vid like 40 times all day thinking this wasn't it. It was the exact thing I was looking for haha 😄 Thanks champ

[@elliot_daniels]

i cant get the green line to appear someone pls help :(

[@quantessenz]

Same... It's weird, sometimes I got it and now not anymore.

[@quantessenz]

So, there are five people in the comments, including me, having problems to get the green line to show up. What worked for me: Put the "Touch" to "Latch" and record the Spin Down manually, by opening the plugin and pressing the Spin Down Button at the right time. You can then adjust the green line, because it finally showed up. This took me some time to google and find out a solution.

[@DavidPower]

I've just looked at this again and discovered the process I outlined in the tutorial no longer works. It looks like Resolve no longer allows you to "draw" automation envelopes for two-state (i.e. on/off) parameters. I've confirmed this with a Waves plugin as well. What you CAN to do work around this limitation is the following (while in the Fairlight tab): 1. Ensure you're in automation Write mode (i.e. top button bar). 2. Play your audio. 3. While playing, click Spin Down close to where you'd like the effect to kick in. 4. While playing, click Spin Down a second time to turn the effect off. 5. Stop playback. At this point, Resolve should have drawn a green automation line for you with distinct points at locations where / when you clicked the Spin Down button during playback. Next... 6. Click the "Select Range" icon and drag your cursor across the automation points you want to move (if any). 7. Fine tune the automation points until you're satisfied. It's a round-about method of getting what you need but I can confirm it works. Let me know if you have questions.

Where to start? Kid's these days should sit back and take notes. The amount of knowledge and way of explaining in this and all the other tutorials you do are just on another level. To watch this, knowing how Davinci works and see how much work and time you spent on making these to help others, I'm out of words! The attention to details, delivering top level footage, sound and effects. Holding my hand trough the whole prosess without me feeling like a Dum Dum.... well, you got my attention mate, I hope you grow and get all the recognition you deserve. Thank you... Cheers from Norway

[@DavidPower]

Thomas... Thank you for your encouraging words. I enjoy learning and sharing. I'm flattered when others appreciate it. Thanks again!

[@ArcanePath360]

Amazing! Thank you. EDIT: The VFX now is listed under the Distortion tab in Fairlight FX for some reason. Man I followed these controls for an hour until finally figuring out that the section which said "enabled" needed to have the plugins box highlighted red in order to record. Finally got this effect working. I hate Fairlight. It's so complicated trying to edit the simplest things. Thanks for the tutorial and link to this plugin!

[@joenicklo]

Worked like a charm! Thanks David.

[@DavidPower]

You're welcome!

[@arsh0603]

Thanx for great tutorial, when I install this audio plugin I get error C + + x64 redistributable error code 1638. do you know the problem? Thank you (Windowa 10 1903)

[@DavidPower]

I've seen this error when you have a more recent version of the redistributable installed. In which case, I'd try ignoring the error. If the installation proceeds, you'll likely be okay. If not, here's a link to Microsoft's take on the problem and a potential fix: support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/4092997/vc-2015-redistributable-install-error-1638-when-newer-version-present

[@dgoldberg3]

Just wanted to ramp from one tempo to another gradually over a few bars, not spin down completely. Wonder how that's possible. (Great tutorial, by the way).

[@BucketListTravellers]

You've answered my google prayers again! Thanks again for another well thought out tutorial! I second what Tech Video Stack says, have a look at adding tags to your videos to extend your reach. You have great content and the Da Vinci creators out there need your help!

[@DavidPower]

Happy to help!

[@JohnFultonCGL]

Awesome plugin, I wish the automation was dynamic to spin down faster when necessary. trying the cableguys plugin you recommended in a comment below though👐

[@raysolis3703]

It works fine for a sec but then when i replay it the clip wither goes silent or the effect dosnt work. solutions?

[@eyloa6386]

Same here. I started the project new, then it worked again. But if I delete the effect, the effect is not gonna be deleted on the track. I find out, that it is changing the speed "directly" (I don't know how to describe it). You have to right klick on your audio track and then go to "change clip speed" manually and set the speed to 100% again.

[@TechVideoStack]

You, definitely, know how to make good tutorial! I think these videos should have much more views. One suggestion though, maybe you should consider adding tags to your videos .. .probably those will help you rank higher in the search and get more organic views

[@DavidPower]

Good advice! I'll investigate that.

[@AndreasThaulow]

Thank you for this. But now the "select range" icon seems to be missing. I'm running studio version 18.1.4 . Do you know if there is another way of doing this, or do I need to change some setting to see this button? Thanks

[@sxopthevillain4024]

I used this but when I used the select range there was no green line and I could not fo anything with it I am using davinci 17

[@Natureactivities]

Unfortunately this plugin is not supported for mac m1. There is a vinyl AU plugin that crashes the Davinci Resolve and another vinyl VST plugin that has status "failed to load".

[@TheDizzyDan]

oh that's why I can not seem to find where it was saved

[@davidleemoveforlife6332]

Apparently this doesn't work in Resolve 17. I was really pretty excited when I found it.

[@DavidPower]

Audio VSTs and automation of their parameters are very much supported in v17. Where exactly are you encountering problems?

[@quantessenz]

@@DavidPower The green line doesn't appear when clicking on it and you can not change the green line (in my case)

[@quantessenz]

The plugin is found and enabled, but is not listed under VST effects. Edit: Deactivate and activate it again, restart Davinci. That will fix it.

[@TheDizzyDan]

I can't find it anywhere on MacOS. When I install it, nothing shows where it gets saved and I can not find it anywhere at all Edit: Checked, and I don't think it got saved anywhere. I don't think installing this works on Mac

[@DavidPower]

I'd be incredibly surprised if iZotope made a plugin that simply doesn't install on half the personal computers in the world. It's more than likely the case it's been installed to a directory Resolve isn't scanning. Here's a link to a video that might help you sort that out... kzbin.info/www/bejne/gmKmpX16pplsftU Hope this helps.

[@HumanAwareness]

Thanks for an excellent tutorial! I'm trying to use Vinyl on a Mac running DR Studio v.17.2, but something is not working as expected. I'm following the tutorial but often don't even get the Automation Envelope (green line) to appear The line shows randomly, and I never know why it suddenly appears, and then disappears again. So, when I'm lucky (having a green line), I manage to set everything up correctly, and the "spin down" works great, yay! But just some editing later, or trying to render the whole project, it stops working and the complete track is either muted or full volume, no green line, no spin down, not good. Is it DR or Vinyl that malfunctions? Any idea?

You may need to tell Resolve where to find the plugin. You can configure VST folder locations in Resolve's preferences. Hope this helps.

Very usefull! Thank YOU

[@DavidPower]

[@SHmediade]

If you have the Problem that the Automation is not recorded while playing, check if the "Plugins" Button in the top Bar is enabled, otherwise it don't record anything in the Plugin :)

[@toho28]

Thank you David, for another great tutorial! Now, is there a way to get it to spin back up?

[@DavidPower]

Hmmm... As you've probably guessed, this iZotope plugin doesn't do "spin up." If you need to do it quickly, here are the steps I'd follow: 1. Find the section you want to spin-up to. 2. On the edit tab, reverse the clip by setting its speed to -100%. 3. Add the spin down / tape stop effect to the endof the clip. 4. Render the audio only to a WAV file. 5. Pull it back into Resolve and change the clip speed to -100% (i.e. to reverse the previous reversing). 6. Place it where you need it. Yes... this is a lot of steps and no where near as fast or simple as having it baked into a plugin. I'll keep my eyes open for other options but the method I've outlined is how I'd do it in a pinch. I hope this helps.

[@juninho05br]

hello. It didn't appear in audio fx list ;( Can u help me?

[@DavidPower]

There are a few things you can try: 1) Make certain the plugin installation process completed successfully. 2) Restart Resolve to see if that refreshes your audio FX list. 3) Locate the plugin installation directory and manually add that path to Resolve's plugin directory list. Give those things a try and let me know how it goes.

[@juninho05br]

@@DavidPower It's working! tks

[@brwombat]

Thanks for a great tutorial! Is there a way to do a Spin Up effect?

[@DavidPower]

Glad you like it! I haven't found a free "spin up" plugin. But if you're open to spending a few bucks, a company called CableGuys makes a plugin called TimeShaper that does all kinds of crazy time manipulations including spin-up, spin-down, record scratches, stutters, etc. (From the same guys, see ShaperBox for an entire suite of processing tools.) Best of luck.

[@davidrawlings355]

I seem to be having some trouble with this. Everything installed fine and the effect works when I manually place it on and click the spin down button, but the issue comes with automating in Fairlight. I've followed your steps, I click on the Select Range icon, but when i select the audio track nothing happens. There's no green line for me to manipulate. I've made sure Spin Down is selected in the dropdown menu on the left as well. Any advice?

[@matemoshits8267]

I managet to make the green line by clicking at it like a milion times but now i cant make another automation point. I love resolve but automation in fairlight is a giant piece of shit

[@afpski]

for me neither

[@DavidPower]

At the moment, it appears Resolve doesn't allow you to draw curves for two-state (i.e. on/off) automation parameters. I've added a work-around in the video description. Give that a try and let me know how it goes.

[@stephajn]

I've been wondering about this for quite some time! I kept thinking that Audio Keyframes (or something like that) would be at work to make it happen. Turns out I wasn't too far off. I'm curious, though, about applying the reverse effect. Suppose you do a spin down and then you want to spin up the record again at a later point. Different plugin perhaps with a "spin up" button?

[@DavidPower]

Hey, Stephajn. Welcome to the channel. Regrettably, the Vinyl plugin doesn't perform 'spin up.' So, you're correct... you'd need a different plugin. One I've been using recently (which does a lot more than spin up/down) is ShaperBox 2 from Cable Guys www.cableguys.com/shaperbox.html. However, it's not free. If it's something you think you'll use frequently, you can save a few bucks buying just the TimeShaper module rather than the entire ShaperBox suite. While it requires a time investment, another (manual) option would look like this: - make a copy of the audio you want to spin up from - reverse it - apply Vinyl spin down - reverse the clip again (turning the spin down into a spin up) - place the new clip appropriately on your timeline Hope this helps!

[@quantessenz]

Just reserve the song where you want to make a spin up. Put a spin down into the reserved song and after that make a compound clip in Davinci and reserve it again to "normal". Just an idea, not tested.

[@stephajn]

@@DavidPower Thanks for this! Very helpful for something I'm working on.

[@icefreak2272]

is it possible to add any other parts of the plug onto the same audio clip? i want to fade in with the 1930s effect into 2000s and cut off with the spin down.

[@DavidPower]

You sure can. You just need to draw separate automation curves/lines for each of the plugin elements you want to change. Give it a shot!

[@icefreak2272]

@@DavidPower so do i just click on the dropdown menu again and select a different element?

[@DavidPower]

@@icefreak2272 Yes... that's right. Just choose the parameter you want to automate, draw the curve, and tweak as necessary.

[@030yk]

Is there a way to changed the spin down speed?

[@DavidPower]

Unfortunately, changing the spin down speed isn't possible with this iZotope plugin.

Hey great video, but if i want to add new folders in vst effects or without adding new ones , there are no available plugins listed?? Under VST effects it shows the same folders as in your video, but there are no available plugins... if i want to add a new folder where it is stored in windows i click the folder and the folder is shown empty in davinci?? Thanks!

[@DavidPower]

Hey, there. Welcome to the channel. If you've: a) Installed the plugin using the manufacturer's installer; and b) you've added the plugin installation directory within DaVinci Resolve | Preferences... | Audio Plugins | VST Effects | Add; and c) the plugin isn't listed under "Available Plugins," your problem may be one of two things. Either: a) you didn't install the VST2 version of the plugin (i.e. Resolve Fairlight doesn't yet support VST3); or b) the directory you added using the process above isn't your VST2 installation directory. Bottom line is, you'll need to ensure you install the VST2 version AND add its installation directory to Resolve. I hope this helps.

[@michael_rwm]

@@DavidPower ok, thanks for the quick answer! i copy pasted the exact folder link from the storing directory of the vst plugin and it shows vinyl vst loaded successfully under available plug ins but i still dont know how to put them into the timeline??
