Does the DaVinci Resolve SPEED EDITOR work in the Edit Page? Tutorial

Learn how to get up to SPEED with the Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve Speed Editor for Resolve 17 fast! Does the Speed Editor work in the Edit Page? Yep, it sure does but not always in the same way that it does in the Cut Page.
We take a look at how the Close Up button performs, how you can do a split edit to trim a j or l cut in the edit page only, how you can see more detail placing in and out markers using source tape and the source button, special search dial features that are exclusive to the cut page like the marker color picker wheel, transition selection, interface sizing, and title font selection, sync bin for live overwrite and Multicam, how the move button behaves different, the cam buttons are used for more than just the sync bin, clip vs timeline markers, insert vs smart insert edit to the timeline, and how the full view play around button also works differently. Here are chapter markers to help you navigate to just the part that helps you out!

Your clarity, the way you show both the Resolve on-screen shots and the speed editor shots simultaneously, the material you choose to cover, your friendly easy-going, helpful personality, and even your orientation towards people who are less technical, and less knowledgeable about Resolve, make you and your tutorials the best! Bravo.

[@JWalking]

This more or less demonstrates the reasons why I think the idea of a Cut Page AND an Edit page is a mistake. It doesn’t make sense separating edit functionality over 2 pages.. ‘An Edit is an Edit!’ and this should remain just on one page for simplicity and speed - the Cut page should have just been built into the Edit page I.e a customisable Edit page for those that want a simpler UI. Just imagine the Source Clip functionality in the Edit page - Super useful!

Nice! That keyboard is a great deal now that they’ve dropped the price and also included a copy of studio with it. I would probably get one if I didn’t already have the speed editor. Cheers!

[@toivotek]

I'm using edit page almost all the time, because audio is most important steering factor for my video structure. Videos are usually shot very straight-forward in final timeline order, so my point of editing is more about watching at audio track graphs and finding what i'm saying and when to cut out silent moments etc. And that's hard to do in cut page because audio is not visible. So I'm not actually getting much of advantage of speed editor. I'm using just few buttons from it, however I still use it. That's why it would be nice to know more about what you can do and how you should do things in edit page to have most out of speed editor. Maybe the biggest thing would be learning to really use cut page, but I hope you see my point. Guiding video for edit page with speed editor.

[@ShawnWeekly]

Thanks! So helpful.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

[@CreativeVideoTips]

UPDATE - Close Up Button DOES WORK on the edit page, but you need to change your source window to "OFFLINE" first. Thanks to Dietmar Kupke for finding this discrepancy. This might just be a little bug in the Beta 6 and 7 versions I've been working with the past few weeks. The way it is supposed to work is if you are in source tape - it drops the source clip down at a blown up scale. You need to be on the timeline or record side to do a close up on what is in the timeline.

[@andrewdbowes]

Hey Chadwick, great video brother! Could you explain what you mean by "you need to change your source window to "OFFLINE" first". Trying to find how to change this setting!

[@andrewdbowes]

Also stuck on a couple other things in this video... I changed my timeline setting to "selection follows playhead" but when I place my playhead over a clip I don't see the red highlight box appear like in your video and my markers still get placed on the timeline headder, not the clip like you have shown. Any ideas?

Hey thanks Paul! And I’d say good call on holding onto the speed editor. Even if you don’t use it all the time it’s great to have to mix things up. (I’m always going from the keyboard to an mmo gaming mouse to a Wacom pen to the speed editor to keep it fun) I really appreciate the sub!

Recently stumbled onto your channel after reconsidering DaVinci Resolve as my primary video editor, (currently use FCPX) and after watching this video on the Speed Editor Keyboard I'm more drawn to it. I am curious if you have or ever use the full Blackmagic Design Edit Keyboard, is it a viable option? Thoughts or future comparison video? Great stuff, keep up the great work. Cheers!

[@juanpablocastillostudio]

You can do the same J Cut without having to disable the audio tracks and the linked selection, by simply clicking once the option key, on your keyboard, and then holding the Roll key, on the Speed editor, and scrolll with the wheel.

[@JoseSpenaN]

Super nice... Hopefully BM bring full cam funtcionallity button on edit tab. I use cut page to rough cut then switch to edit... And see what they going to add with the well click. So far just make noise.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

I agree completely. Regarding that wheel click - i’m not totally sure its actually a button. If I’m able to talk with someone at NAB I’ll be sure to report back.

[@vivamoment]

Great videos, as always. Thanks. I would be interested whether this video needs a refresh now with Davinci 18.1.1? Your thoughts?

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Thanks Viva, there was the change that added multicam support in the edit page that you can find here on that channel. That is really the only big update the device has had since created these launch tutorials. I'm currently testing the new iPad app and the cool thing is it does work on there too so expect to see it in those videos. Timing on those is TBD but in the works once I have more solid tips to share. Thanks for the kind words.

[@fletcherbrown728]

Great video as usual. I have the Ediotor Keyboard that Davince does not have any documentation so I am trying to scope it out with your videos on the Speed Editor. Right off the bat at only 44 seconds in I am confused. The "Close Up" key is great and immediately places the zoomed clip above the selected clip but I can't figure out how to adjust the Y position by holding the "Close Up" button down. If I press and hold - it places the clip but no adjustment of Y using the jog wheel. If I select the new close-up clip and press the hold button again it places another close-up clip on top of the first close-up clip?? Possibly a difference in function between the speed editor and the editor's keyboard??

[@erico1739]

Hey Chadwick, you're one of the best DR instructors on YT. Quick q on the cut page, why can't I see the audio trim icon on the side section? On my Cut Page in DR 18.5, it combines the video and audio tracks without being able to edit audio separately.

[@jeastmon]

Can you set in/out points and insert into the timeline when your in full view with the Speed Editor keys?

[@aerofart]

I think you can also just lock the audio tracks (or any tracks for that matter) that you don't want the Cut Page to mess with.

[@rickpinelli1586]

I use the Loupedeck with DaVinci... It is more expensive but works with any program, not limited to just one app.

[@CODGOD303]

Which loupe deck do u use? im looking at loupe deck+ which is actually cheaper than the speed editor

[@WorkinOnIt]

I like your videos! This basically made me not want to use the Edit Page.

[@gabrielbratescu]

I just got my Speed Editor and it is so much fun. Also, close up and title seems to work fine in Edit page. Maybe they updated the software ?

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Awesome Gabriel! It really is cool to have a new way to work. And yes at some point those items did start working. Now if only they can let us do multicam (traditional style) in the edit page with that keypad! Cheers.

[@eduardstuermer]

If you put all your clips in a timeline, you can drag this timeline from the bin to the source monitor. Then you create a second timeline as destination. Now you can switch between the timelines with the source and the timeline buttons on the speed editor. It is a kind of the source tape in the cut page.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Yep - this is a great tip Eduard! Just like the 'ole Avid source record stringouts. Love it.

[@eduardstuermer]

@@CreativeVideoTips but in Avid you can see it also as a timeline in the timeline panel. I have mapped it to ESC, so with one button I can switch between source timeline and destination timeline.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

@@eduardstuermer that's funny - we have a very similar mindset - my avid custom keys are set to F1 being my toggle between the source/record timeline view :)

[@eduardstuermer]

@@CreativeVideoTips This feature is the one I miss in Resolve or Premiere. I often use a timeline per shooting day, but also timelines with preselections. I find it very tedious to scroll in a bin if you have more than hundred clips in your project. It's like a pancake timeline, but I you can use it even on a smaller monitor.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

@@eduardstuermer ​ @Eduard Stürmer yeah I would like that in the edit page too. Have you tried using source tape in the cut page by shoot day or scene yet? It's pretty similar to working like that from stringouts - the advantage is you don't need to create timelines for it (it can sort by your bins), but the disadvatage is you can't retain any specific i/o marks or notes easily without first making a selects timeline. Have you seen this video here - ? kzbin.info/www/bejne/iYO8hKqag52rl6s

[@RichGrueber]

I am doing motorbike vlogs and I have a handlebar cam pointed at me, I have been after an easy way to incorporate that camera footage with my helmet cam and vice Versa,It should work a treat. Does it drop in the in out selection or the whole clip.

[@cinema-q]

Hmm. @1:10 The CLOSE UP button in the Edit page seemed to add a Close Up version of the clip that was in the source monitor instead of the regularly-sized clip. That might be worth noting. 🤔

[@oscar-gomez]

Was the close-up button ever fixed, other than the "source offline" workaround?

[@christianstelzl2494]

Hey Chadwick, hope you´re doing absolutly fine. Ive got a problem and i don´t know how to fix it. hope you have an idea. I use the speed editor in the Cut page. I´m in source mode to pic clips to the time line. At the moment just append that i have a bunch of clips choosen. However i clic append and every clip goes to V1 (how it suppose to be) but every regarding audioclip opens up a ne autio track! But i want the the audio goes always to track1. Any idea how i can fix that?

[@squidskunk]

its now October 2022...has anything changed for the better/worse with the functionality of the speed editor..?

[@papermelon]

I cannot begin to tell you how desperately I want a $200 editing panel from Davinci that serves primarily to edit the attributes of a video. Basically an Inspector board, where I can physically change the X and Y positions of the selected video, the zoom level, crop level, dynamic zoom, audio levels, etc. Just give us a panel with a handful of knobs, some buttons and a dial and I'll be committed to Davinci for LIFE. As of now, no 3rd party brand panel will work because of Davinci's closed AI.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

That would be cool! Hopefully blackmagic is paying attention to this. I love the way you're thinking. Some of this can be done with the color panels, but I'm all for a simpler edit focused panel beyond the speed editor.

[@papermelon]

@@CreativeVideoTips from what you’ve used, CAN I edit those things with a color panel (for example, the micro panel)? I tried looking it up and found nothing on it besides how they edit on the color page. Id even consider saving up for one of those right now if they could pull it off.

[@DaliborSaula]

With J and L cuts would have been fantastic if once you have "Audio only" or "Video Only" selected that it only rolls that over. But oh well, hopefully it's something that gets added later.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Agreed. I’m hoping they will update some of these capabilities in version 18.

[@glzproductions2011]

Great video I have an issue 😕, when I am at the cut page and selected cam 2 to motility video on the video 2 timeline and i click the move button, it moves the video 2 and video 1 together. Any ideas what is happening 🤔

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Hey thanks! So, the move button wants to keep everything in sync so the way you are seeing it behave is just how it works. It's like a connected clip in Final Cut Pro. However, if you just need to move the clip a little and not change the order of the clips - this is when you want to use the "Slide" button. It's the secondary function to Roll and is activated by a double tap hold. This will at least let you move the V2 clip around a bit, it just won't do the truffle shuffle like move will. This next week's tip is all about the trim functions so watch out for that on Tuesday! :). Cheers!

[@williamcousert]

This video is two years old. Were any of the problems fixed?

[@TheGhostPlanet]

Hello Chad, I have a question? How do you drop in order multiple clips to the timeline using the speed editor on the cut page. It seems viewing them in source mode they are not in order. Do you have to name each clip in the media pool such as clip 1 clip 2 etc then you can drop them in the timeline? Hope this is not confusing. 😀

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Hi - so in "source tape" mode you can choose the sort order. It's the center button up top, just to the left of the "source clip" view. Bin, TC, camera, date time, clip name, scene, shot, clip color, date modified, and date imported are all options. Hope this helps.

[@TheGhostPlanet]

@@CreativeVideoTips Thank you! ~Paul

[@gtamediaproductions1]

Need help. How do you ripple delete gaps in the edit page and not ripple delete the footage making that vanish instead of just the gap in between?

[@CreativeVideoTips]

under the edit dropdown menu there is an option halfway down to "delete gaps". The other way is to be in trim edit mode and trim out the gaps.

[@dietmar1937]

[@flipnap2112]

yeah, would be nice but the cut page is really your friend when it comes to blocking out your project. being able to see the whole project in one glance is a godsend as well

[@Chess4lyfe]

Question: Is there any way to isolate just one track to lay the default transition on? When I use the speed editor and I have multiple tracks and I only one it on say track one...it adds transitions to all video tracks and a audio transition to the audio tracks. I can't figure out how to force it to only add the transition to one track.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

I think you've run into a limitation there, in this this case I'd probably jump to the edit page and make some manual selections to apply them

[@Chess4lyfe]

If you have 20 minutes A roll footage which mode you select？editor mode or cut mode？I found this beautiful keyboard didn’t suitable dialogue

[@CreativeVideoTips]

honestly - it just depends on the day and what I'm feeling like using (keyboard or speed editor). In general, I don't use the speed editor very often on the edit page. But I still use both quite a bit. That being said, cutting in A-Roll only is kind of one of the best things about using the speed editor and for that I would highly suggest trying to get comfortable with it in the jog and scroll modes.

I don´t know if it's my unit but one thing that I find very annoying about the speed editor is the way the jog wheel works, it has a very pronounced delay, when you stop It keeps scrolling, I find the mouse to be way more accurate, is it just me?

[@CreativeVideoTips]

For me, it's really just the shuttle mode that I don't like. Both the jog and scroll seem to be very responsive. A mouse is good too, and JKL on the keyboard is also really good.

[@beauhollisofficial]

The Multicam part is no longer accurate. You can use the speed editor in the edit page with a multicam setup. Super easy.

[@minothi]

Smart insert also works in edit page. You just have to be within 7 frames either side of the existing cut. Unless that is a 🐞 on my machine 😂

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Very interesting - I see what you are saying. For me on a 24p timeline, smart insert is working on edit - but I had to be closer - 2 frames away from the edit point. Once I moved 3 frames away it did a normal insert (with the speed editor smart insert button). More clarity on the edit page with smart indicators would be a useful thing for Blackmagic to add in there.

Anyone know why when I press the Close Up button while in the cut page, it just places a punched in image that doesn't play?

[@CreativeVideoTips]

This sounds like it could be a bug, unless you did a close up of a still. Are you on the latest version Josh?

[@joshtest6446]

@@CreativeVideoTips I think it's a bug. I tried it on another timeline in the same project and it worked perfectly. Thanks!

Hmmm... I am not sure if the Speed Editor will be of any use to me. I produce drumcover videos with 7 cameras recording me at the same time, which I then edit in post to form one final video with a lot of different angles. My biggest challenge is usually to get all the 7 cameras in sync before doing any editing. If I understand that correctly, this means the linear workflow of the speed editor won't provide any use for my use case...

That's so cool you're a drummer! It's funny how many editors I have come across that aren't just musicians but drummers. There's a lot of cross-over there. Anyway - there are 2 very different methods of doing multicam in Resolve. One of them lets you use the speed editor (the cut page sync bin method) and the other way doesn't (the edit page - at least as of today). I really enjoy using the speed editor but in all honestly for something where you might want to tap a key to change angles on a specific rhythm - I would probably go with the edit page (non speed editor) method since rhythm is crucial. They both get you a similar result - the difference is in the cut page you really need to paint angles on and not play in realtime. Hopefully this helps your decision. The main thing I like the tool for is scrubbing a days worth of footage in source tape mode and quickly getting favorite takes into timelines. It's a good deal considering its free with buying the paid version of resolve at the moment.

@@CreativeVideoTips Thanks for the detailed answer, it really helps. Yes, I also noticed a lot of musicians being also into photography/videography. At the end of the day I think creativity can have so many ways of expressing itself, which is something that makes it all so much more interesting. You are right, as the speed editor comes for free with the Resolve license, there won't be any regrets anyhow. I just bought the package today! Looking forward to the Resolve upgrade.

@@ElBoyoElectronico when I edit music videos to the beat, I usually use the blade tool and tap out my cuts in real time. for syncing I usually play out a 1k beep tone and match the audio waveforms (the shorter the beep the better) sort of like a slate clap. then just mute out the angles manually. which you have to do with multi cam. but even using an automated waveform monitor you still have to choose which clips.. so yeah its a sluggish process no matter what. but the speed editor could help in the cut page for detailed editing of cam changes, once they're blocked out

Well you did ask for comments, so here we go… I think the speed editor is a gimmick. Back in the days where you had an edit controller and you were going to tape to tape… That’s what it reminds me of. I’m not saying it’s not good and it’s a lot of fun, but it’s gimmicky and it feels like a toy to me. I would make a bet with almost anybody that I am faster with a mouse and my keyboard shortcuts then they would be with the speed editor. Much faster. I suppose in time I could learn to use it but why bother when you can just grab a clip and drag it in any direction as quick as your hands can move. And don’t forget on the edit page there is one of my favorite functions, swap clips. I can take a single clip or a group of them and swap them around anywhere I want easily and faster then you can do that in the cut page. Well that’s my two cents. And again we love your videos… We just don’t agree with you that the speed editor is better or faster than the edit page. The one thing I do love the cut page and I do use it is to take all my clips and put it into one reel and zip through it and find what I need. That’s really the only time I use the cut page.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Hi Allen, yep I love hearing comments and feedback so this is very useful. I have no doubt that you can work faster without the new speed editor or the cut page (partly because I know I can too). I do however think it really can make things fun if you're into trying new editing tools. About 8 years ago I started using a wacom tablet for the first time - I hated how difficult it made things that use to be so simple with a mouse but then I couldn't work in an edit bay without one. Jump forward a few years from then and I discovered MMO gaming mice and was hooked on those to go with my gaming keyboards. I think the key I've found is mixing it up with the tools can help some folks like myself stay excited and motivated to master new skills and tools. My hope with creative video tips is that I'm able to open people's eyes to these things that excite me about filmmaking or to get over hurdles on confusing topics that can use more clarification. (regarding speed editor - I think I'm about out of tips until I can find something new about it though) But I have so much more to share about Resolve/Final Cut/Workflows/Tools etc...

[@2424rocket]

I totally totally agree with you. And I hope you will do a video on relinking media when you move your project over to another hard drive. To me, that’s where Resolve is at its weakest. This week I had to do a project in Premier Pro and after a couple of months in resolve, premiere Pro feels like a toy. 😊

This product is beginning to look like VAPORWARE: I know several people with orders placed during the announcement, and NO PRODUCT IS BEING SHIPPED. That was nearly 3 MONTHS AGO... Does anyone know, is Blackmagic SOLVENT, and planning to SHIP THIS PRODUCT???

Hmm. It’s definitely starting to ship but I’m sure depends on the demands from each specific retailer. I would reach out to them and ask the status.

Should they have called it a 'Speed Cutter' instead of Editor if you options are limited in the Edit page and it was pretty much designed for the Cut page? 😂

[@CreativeVideoTips]

I like the way that sounds. I think there is a cultural vocabulary thing in the post world when people decide to use the word edit vs cut. Cut is generally used in higher end projects and Edit on lower budget projects and facilities. I find these semantics amusing but this is a good point Mason.

[@supercanardo]

A "real" L cut or J cut should let you shorten one side of the audio WHILST you shorten the other side of the video. I wish the pretty but useless Speed Editor could do it.
