DaVinci Resolve Cut Page in Under 60 Min

[@ProdigiAI]

For people who can't find "audio trim" button at 13:59 and is using DaVinci Resolve 18, use the "Enlarge Track" button on the left side of the lower video track (bottom left of the cut page).

[@HatefYaminiOnline]

I freaking love the Cut Page. I was a Final Cut Pro X user and was intimidated by Davinci Resolve. But then I read the Resolve User Manual and once I learned the cut page, I was able to work very quickly. Ripple Training is great. Thanks for sharing this tutorial.

[@MarshallCant]

Finally, a Cut Page tutorial that is EXCELLENT! Thank you.

[@e_fission]

You just made DaVinci Resolve about 1000 times easier for me to use. My sincere thanks! Also I really appreciated the chapter breakdown, that was super.

[@MercateerGeo]

I have been using DaVinci Resolve incredibly clumsily, some of these methods made me gasp 😂 It became immediately obvious that this is how it's supposed to be done. I could not live without the cut page anymore. Thank you so much for this video!

[@XziledBlog]

Thanks a lot friend, I used to think the cut page was pretty simple and just hide it the entire time! I've learned a lot

[@chuan-kangshih78]

The very best step-to-step tutorial on the cut page of Davinci Resolve. Too bad that KZbin doesn’t push it to a higher search priority. I hope I came across it sooner. Thank you so much for your clear and thorough instructions!

[@Foreverlastingimage]

This is an extremely well-organized and professional tutorial I've seen on DR in a while... well done.

[@rippleguys]

Thank you.

[@ToneLovesLove]

I enjoyed this. Although I knew about 70-80%, the keyboard shortcuts and direct export features were handy tips. Thanks for creating such an easy to watch tutorial!

[@S.Mullen]

You have created a wonderful tutorial on the Cut Page. I never was interested until I put Resolve on my iPad where I only have the Cut Page. Your content was invaluable to my creation of a simple guide to iPad Resolve. Thank you so much.

[@kersland]

Thanks for sharing this - I learned FCPX from buying (lots) of your courses way back and am now finally making the switch to Resolve. This helps a lot.

[@shanemcdonaldstudios]

Super thorough, yet concise and not over-explained. Thanks!😀

[@swdw973]

Moving to Resolve from vegas pro, I originally thought the cut page was just a trimmer with a couple added features. Boy was I wrong. The Cut page is soooo much more. And I can see where its for much more than short content creation. Thanks for a great tutorial.

[@chuan-kangshih78]

This is the Bible of Davinci Resolve Cut page. Only one thing that I cannot understand, that is, what the X key does. I will watch this video repeatedly until I put the Cut page completely under my command. At the end of 2023, this video is a little outdated. The interface of the Cut page on this video is somewhat different from version 18.6. It will be fantastic if you can make another updated and improved video when version 19 comes out. Congratulations for such an outstanding accomplishment! It’s a great service to the video editing community.

[@pauldavidschwartz]

Great tutorial! Thanks! Particularly appreciated the pointers to buttons and the explanation of editing terms.

[@videoportal22libor92]

Thanks so much for the excellent explanation of working on the DaVinci Resolve Cut Page. I have been following your tutorials regarding Final cut, Motion, etc. for many years and they are always in absolute TOP quality. Sincerely, Libor

Just started on my video and editing journey into BMPCC 4K and Davinci Resolve Studio - so absolutely amazing inflight to cut. Thank you.

Superb work! I learned a lot from this fast but clear lesson. Most appreciative!!!

[@frankguthrie2825]

So I have just moved to Resolve from Filmora and have been looking for a tutorial such as this to get me on my way - you hit a home run for me - thank you!! This has helped me immensely!! I did find a few differences between version 17 and 18.5, but I got through them. The boring icon is not in 18.5, you need to select it from a menu (by default anyway) and there was something else - I forgot. No big deal though, I got through it. So much value in this for me, thank you! I'm going to purchase your full course as well :)

[@rippleguys]

Thanks - my Resolve 18 Core Training course will be updated to 18.5 later this week - thanks for your feedback!

[@frankguthrie2825]

Great tutorial! I've been using only the Edit window. Now I realize the Cut page has some great features.

[@CatitoArce]

This was awesome. By far, the best cut page tutorial. New suscribed. Thank you.

I liked this more than I expected to. I’m tired of hearing “paint by number” recipes for writing. This video represents a more creative writing approach. 👍

damn this is the most helpful tutorial I have ever seen on Davinci

[@juliasavory]

This is really very good. I've watched it once, and now I'm just about to do it. And then I've got 3 films to put together by Monday.!

[@jeremy_from_texas]

Wow that is a really great tutorial! Thank you for sharing your premium content with us!

[@selwynleacock6601]

Excellent tutorial, its really good that you have explained DR clearly. I have tried looking at other DR tutorials and didn't understand the process at all.

[@Stories10]

Thank you, it was good practice! I did the Blackmagic training for DaVinci Resolve 17, but I never used enough the Cut Page, even if I also have the Speed Editor. I felt a little bit rusty and I expect some new projects to come, so I really need to work in the Cut Page with the Speed Editor to be able to work as fast as possible.

[@achillesa5894]

Thank you for the amazing tutorial, super useful and easy to follow!

[@matthewstaton9197]

Very helpful! I want to use Resolve for producing content for podcast/KZbin. I do not have an A/V production background. This video is very helpful for opening up the cut page to me, resulting in a quicker, easier editing workflow. Thank you!

[@audiomedia]

Awesome tutorial.

[@LiftGammaGainKC]

Just bought the main Davinci tutorial from ripple training and it’s excellent.

[@andrefouche8725]

Always great tutorials from Ripple Training, thanks Steve for sharing.

[@camillejt514]

This is great! I was trying to move to using Davinci resolve after premiere and struggling to figure out how to do some basic ripple edits. I saw a lot of tools, and it looked like it could do a lot of stuff, but I didn’t know what it did this video explained it and such a great step by step away without being boring? I’m so excited to use the program now.

[@rippleguys]

Glad you found us. Resolve 18.5 made some pretty substantial improvements to the cut page, and I'll be doing a video on those soon

[@747-8F]

excellent teaching..thank you

[@stephenwilson8962]

So helpful, thank you. You’re a great teacher.

[@leel0000]

Thanks for the insight of DaVinci Resolve. Now I’m using the M1 iPad Pro as a main computer ever since my 17’ MacBook Pro died on me. Very disappointed on Apple for not releasing FCP for the iPad but they have no trouble releasing iMovie. I have bought your tutorial for Final Cut Pro X, Motion and Compressor and I can’t wait when you will be releasing DaVinci Resolve for iPad.

[@rippleguys]

There won’t be a Resolve for the iPad - if you know how to use Resolve on a Mac - you’ll know how to use it on iPad -

[@jemadv1594]

Great Video. New to DR 18.5 & Speed Editor. Had to slow down the playback speed / start / stop. Layout for some inspector tools are diff. on 18.5 Win. Would love to see a beginners guide for using Speed Editor with Cut Page. Example: Following along at the end when you said "Ctrl B" to cut. I can right click and cut with sissors, left side sissors icon, Ctrl B to cut. Pretty much every option except using the "CUT KEY" on Speed Editor. Appears to be disabled because indicator light on cut key doesn't illuminate. Probably settings or user error. Thank you

[@jdstrobist]

Gret tutorial Steve! Thanks for sharing it 😎✌️ JD.

[@chrishe3801]

Do you have to " click and drag" the playhead in order to view footages? I just switched from FCP to Davinci and trying to find a function in Davinci same like the "S" preview function in FCP.

[@kmo420]

Can somebody please explain what’s the use of the empty gap that’s before the first clip in the timeline! It’s really confusing and I can’t find a use for it and it wastes huge space specially on ipad

[@AdelAlberk]

is there a way to increase the size of the audio of a clip … aka i wanna see the waveform be better/clearer .. thanks

[@rippleguys]

Download 18.5 beta and that fro has been added

[@ejt321]

Excellent video, but I didn't find that version 18.x has the ability to convert media subfolders to bins. Had to create them myself.

They will covert if you use the import folder button as I demonstrated - kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKXQYZ6MadWfg6M

[@lokeshg9929]

Steve, thoughts on Resolve coming to iPad before FCP?

[@rippleguys]

disappointed. Seems like a missed opportunity.

[@uncleanAlibertine1]

great mate

[@ClassicalContrarian]

Help! At 13:58, an “auto trim” button is pointed out, but I don't see this in Resolve 18.5! Am I missing something?

[@rippleguys]

In 18.5 is now an "enlarge" button in track headers that allows you to turn the waveforn on and off - so the auto trim button is no longer necessary

[@PhotokaaranDhas]

32:44 you are told that, there is no way to remove Auto Color in Cut Page. But in cut page Auto Color Reset button is not there .

[@rippleguys]

Good catch. Yes, there is a tiny reset button to the right of the auto color button. There may have been a version when it was not there.

[@PhotokaaranDhas]

@@rippleguys Thank you 🙏

[@GameSack]

I think the Windows version won't let you export as ProRes because reasons.

[@rippleguys]

True

[@JohnAldred]

Because Apple won't license ProRes write abilities to Microsoft.

[@timsimon]

Trying Resolve coming from VideoPad. Seems overly complicated. Even this tutorial was over my head lol.

[@mdturnerinoz]

Thanks for this, but gee whiz, FCPX is so much easier/straightforward to edit with! If the cut page is "easier" than the edit page, then I shudder at using the edit page!

[@S.Mullen]

I think the Edit Page is much easier, assuming you have decades editing film and video. The EP works like most editors have always worked.

[@peterwilson9699]

Exactly my opinion! Final Cut is superb!

[@Superjeanmarc]

Does that mean that Apple is slowly abandoning FC? I wouldnt be surprised as more and more FC users are moving to resolve. I love FP for its media management functions, multiple selections in the same clip to attribute various keywords etc.. but I hate the lack of easy collaboration with sound guys, color guys etc.. always issues with XML etc.. Ripple training I'm looking to a video explaining clearly how to compensate the fact that FC can't export OMF / AAF with handles etc.. Maybe its already published but havent found it, Thanks!!

[@rippleguys]

Apple is not abandoning FCP. OMF is going on 30 years now and is old school. AAF is modern workflow and can be done with this app - x2pro.net/

[@Superjeanmarc]

@@rippleguys Thanks for the quick reply. I have heard of X2PRO but was doubting in pulling the trigger as it cost half of the price of FC and reviews are quite bad.. Also I find it surreal that FC doesn't include professional tools to communicate with sound professionals..

[@rippleguys]

​@@Superjeanmarc Not sure about the reviews, but I know many folks who use X2Pro with success and it's really the best option. As a second option you can export your project as XML to Logic Pro, then create the AAF files from there.

13:29 “In this case we’re lengthening the cruiser clip while simultaneously shortening the Ford Sedan clip. This type of edit is called a ‘rolling edit’.” Is there a way to lengthen the cruiser clip while keeping the length of the Ford Sedan clip intact? I’d like the Ford Sedan clip to simply move further to the right without changing its length. And if there are any other clips to the right of the Ford Sedan clip, I’d also like for all of them to move to the right, unchanged. Is there a way to do this?

[@rippleguys]

I did cover it, It's called a Ripple Edit or a one-sided trim - kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKXQYZ6MadWfg6M

[@rippleguys]

If you ripple trim the outgoing side of the cruiser clip, the ford sedan clip will be "pushed" down the timeline equal to the length of the trim.

[@jc_alpha]

@@rippleguys thanks for your reply. I failed to mention that I’m trying to do this on the b-roll track. On the a-roll track, the ripple trim is working as expected, but on the B-roll one, the incoming clip gets overridden. Do you know why this might be happening?

[@rippleguys]

@@jc_alpha because that's the way the software works. A ripple on track 2 will always overwrite the incoming clip. Move the clips into the A track if you need it to trim as expected.

[@jc_alpha]

@@rippleguys I see. Thanks again for replying and for making such great content!

@@rippleguys weirdly not with the files down loaded shows the file but no videos in the file. Though the videos are in the file. Can’t be imported following the video. Perhaps because if the video formats windows don’t want to acknowledge Mac stuff 😂

[@ernestziegenfelder9962]

for some reason, in and out works fine, but adding that clip to the timeline just adds the whole clip. I have yet to find a solution for this

[@rippleguys]

It does not add the whole clip. It adds the portion between your marked in and outs. If you have only one clip marked, the upper timeline shows you the full extent of that "marked" clip until you append others to it.

[@andreab1465]

I could not believe this is true
