How to FIX Sync Bin - SPEED EDITOR Multicam DaVinci Resolve 17 Tutorial

[@RickyTinez]

dude.. your videos NEVER fail me.. its always the most specific weird thing I'm trying to figure out and you've helped me countless times. Thanks so much!

This functionality is genuinely incredible. I just ordered Studio today and I'm soooo excited to get the Speed Editor and try all of this out! Great tutorial, brother!

Great to hear! I still think it's a lot of fun several months later. Let me know what you think once you get your hands on it.

[@tomasnovacek8055]

Thanks a lot. I had a record from the theater of four cameras, in which the cards were changed, and the easy way to create a multicamera in davinci reported a problem with the connection. But after your tutorial, I'm happy like a flea in a dog's fur. Thanks again.

[@davarso]

Thank you Chadwick ! I'm exploring the sync bin and I was having difficulty with my audio and your explanation is just perfect for me. I discovered your channel while searching for the speed editor and Davinci Resolve and I will be around for more, that's for sure.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Love it. Great to hear David. Yeah I would say the audio synchronization is probably one of the biggest areas resolve could improve for editing.

@@CreativeVideoTips You definitely helped. Im still having issues with multiple start and stop recordings where both angles wont show up in the sync bin area after hitting save it shows when analyzed by audio but not after hitting save. It only shows Camera 1 on a Track 1 then Camera 2 appended at the end of Track 1. They dont overlap/sync in the sync bin. Any ideas??

[@danhoven]

I barely have 4 or 5 hours in playing around with resolve, so am quite lost at the moment, but seeing the many things you did in this video makes me want to now find the first video so I can learn all about it. I make piano videos just as a hobby to share with friends and fam, so I record with 4 cameras and then have to sync them all manually since my audio tracks go right to my daw, the cameras have nothing they're recording other than the clicking of the keys. After seeing this though, I'll probably turn on a monitor speaker to use this option and save me tons of time. On recording night, I could have hours of footage but only one worthy take of audio. If I get right into the video editing I'm fine, but I'm now trying to put a video together I recorded a year ago so had I known how to use this it would still be simple. I'm primarily AE CS6 and know it better than anything, but my footage is all 4k so bought Resolve studio 18. Learning all over again isn't going to be fun as in this case with how I found this video. I had followed along another tutorial and tied to use Resolve's sync feature to see if it would match up all those key click patterns, but somehow it go my audio track in the mix and I can't unlock the sync but now I know. Sorry for the long winded explanation, I just type fast. Which video should I start with to learn this inside out? Thanks for this and any recommendations you might have!

[@Bearleii_Sober]

Thanks for making this video. There are some useful tips here. One thing I've noticed whenever I have audio that "sucks" is exactly what you experienced during this tutorial. I don't think resolve uses the manually linked audio at all during the sync by waveform operation. I think it still refers to the embedded audio. Must be a bug I think. Your workaround was great though. I didn't know you could adjust the sync on a timeline like that.

[@NKRDBL]

this video is instantly goes to my saved playlist named "GOLD"

[@TimGanderPhotographer]

Thanks so much for the tips on this! Trying to sync audio in any kind of multicam setting has been driving me mad. All the other tutorials show you how to work with random stock-like clips or sequences where a separate audio track doesn't need to be kept in sync. Thanks so much for showing how to actually work with real-world footage! Also, seems after your initial review of the Speed Editor, you've grown to like that multicam keypad ;-) I've subscribed and looking forward to learning more from you.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

You're welcome Tim. Yeah I kind of feel like syncing waveforms is probably the weakest editing sort of task Resolve has in comparison to competing software. But it still can work for sure... It shines in the fact that it supports timecode better than the rest (or at least ties avid). I go back and forth with using and not using the speed editor each week. I probably cut at least 1 sync bin style multicam with it each week and then other days I'll just use a keyboard and gaming mouse or wacom pen.

[@TimGanderPhotographer]

@@CreativeVideoTips Thanks for taking the trouble to reply, that's really cool of you. My position, as if you hadn't guessed, is I'm a complete newb to video and video editing, so I picked up the Speed Editor (free with the Studio version of DaVinci Resolve 17) because for me it feels like it'll help me learn many of the basics (and beyond) of editing. I can't afford a full Black Magic keyboard and I'll never learn all the keyboard shortcuts, so the Speed Editor should help a lot! And hopefully BM will strengthen that waveform syncing in future updates :-) Anyway, thanks again and keep up the great work, it is appreciated!

[@vertusmatjaz]

Hey. I've asked you on your other video all questions that you cover here. You rock! Thanks

[@CreativeVideoTips]

[@moritzspang]

Thank you so much Chadwick! I really hope they update the sync bin in Resolve 18 to be a little bit easier to use.

[@AjushiPhotography]

Great Video! - As a FCPX user, I purchased the Speed Editor with Studio - I am just having a really hard time moving over to DaVinci - even after watching all of your videos - especially since i shot everything in 4K DCI - FCPX just seems much faster.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

The cool thing is you can easily use both final cut and resolve now. There are so many things I like about both. I think if you use proxies they will both perform about the same but the Mac really does get a nice advantage with the final cut team knowing exactly how all the hardware works best.

[@mzdial]

I've learned so much from you over the past couple months. Thanks Chadwick!

[@SethBlackMedia]

My speed editor came in today (thanks to my awesome boss) and I’m really excited to start using it. Once I get more comfortable with the cut page I can’t wait to see how much faster it speeds up my productivity. One thing I’m curious about is if you use the closeup feature with 4K footage scaled to fit frame size on an HD timeline, does it still retain all the pixel data from the 4K image or does it rasterize the 4K image to HD and then scale up causing you to lose pixel data?

[@film42tv]

Great stuff! I was really trying to use sync bin, but it just wasn’t working for me. I feel like giving it another go now👍

[@Bearleii_Sober]

I've been using the sync bin for multicam and it's been amazing but after watching the updated multicam tutorial on the blackmagic page, I might start using the old method again. The reason is because you can switch between angles in realtime using a mouse and keyboard. Could you do the same on the syncbin without the speed editor?

[@Pierluca72]

Man, you have been extremely helpful! Thank you so much

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Thanks so much for watching and the super kind comment. Much more to come.

[@DarrylSyms]

Thanks for the infos! Any idea how I can bulk change an angle if I've painted the wrong one?

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Hey Darryl - Man this seems like an over site from Blackmagic. I can't find a way to do this other then just "re-painting". The should add a replace type edit function in a future release to solve this problem. If you find anything that works - please do share with everyone on here.

[@DarrylSyms]

@@CreativeVideoTips that's a bummer! Thanks for the reply :)

[@RVKevin]

Chadwick, If you ever do another sync bin speed editor tutorial can you do a more detailed sync bin setup ? I realize I am slow at picking some of these skills up. I have struggled at the the step by step process of creating the environment for sync been to work properly. After re watching your video a few times i notice you had previously created a couple of timelines to use in your example and I have been trying to understand what order you used to create a successful sync bin setup.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Noted! What is your typical multicam setup of gear? This will help me cater more specifically if it's a common production workflow.

[@RVKevin]

@@CreativeVideoTips , Lets see. 2 to 3 cameras at most with a video or 2 of Broll to patch in. Sometimes a cooking video with 2 cams and one Broll clip to parse. Audio and video in different bins. B roll in different bin. I started making stingouts, i guess i should stop that for a multicam video. It may just be me not understanding how to setup a proper workflow for multicam, it sure is different enough from building a video out of stringouts of A and Broll alone. I hope this is what you are asking. Kevin

[@lerychfotovideo]

Hi. You really rock! But what is the mouse-like device you are using?

[@stever1514]

Hey Chadwick, is there any other way to add a video track to a sync bin after the first few tracks have been sync'd? I have a particular camera angle that Resolve refuses to bring in to the sync bin screen. I thought it may be a bug so I kept trying different solutions to get this file to show up in that initial sync bin window but just can't get Resolve to recognize it. I've got my speed editor ready to go and I'd rather not use the older multicam view. Great video, and I appreciate your methods of locking the main audio to. the primary angle and showing the edit view for finer tweaks.

[@Sethmotley]

Great tutorials

[@frwiss]

Thanks for this!

[@kgouvia]

This was a Great Tutorial but what if you did not have 3 or Cameras and had to shoot old school film style (one angle at a time). Is there a way to take that B-Roll that was shot film style with one camera and use them in a Sync Bin with the Speed Editor after naming the Camera Angles?

[@CreativeVideoTips]

In that case I would use the sync bin because nothing would actually be in sync. Instead I would use the place on top command for cutaways of b-roll.

[@DKiaulakis]

Amazing !!! Thanks

[@WITELITE]

Great tutorial. I will need to go through it 2 more times but exactly what I'm looking to do for mixing band videos from an ATEM Pro ISO. Question - I know you can live switch the videos using the keyboard and pressing the camera number as the music plays to switch angles. Is that doable with the speed editor???

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Thanks Michael - this is probably my biggest or main disappointment with the speed editor for multi-cam. No you can't do that. You need to rotate the dial to "paint on" each new angle - it doesn't happen in real time.

[@MarkHarmer]

I think in studio 17.4 you can now do live switching from the Speed Editor in the Edit page

[@CreativeVideoTips]

@@MarkHarmer yes you sure can! This will probably be the tutorial for next week.

[@paulschlesier]

Hey, thanks for the useful video. But I'm pretty stuck right now. Created a sync bin with 13 angles and 1 Audio File (Song performance) - edited the sync bin and now when I go to the cut page and press the Sync bin button there's a greyed out field "No synced clips" - how do I use that Sync bin I've created and edited (can open it in the edit tab) and use it as source for my new timeline? I've tried for nearly a hour now and have no idea anymore.. Thanks!!

[@paulschlesier]

Ok, you described it perfectly fine! My situation is as following: We have a fixed audio (as camera angle btw. because it fits to no video from start to end) and 13 angles (takes) of video performance clips. Key was - like you did in the video, to once set in and out point to the audio file and append it in full on the newly created timeline, then the sync bin key on the speed editor worked and showed me all the angles.. that was a somewhat confusing one. I imaged I can go to a new timeline, choose the Sync bin as a source and then push in my angles, but Resolve needs a fundament that serves as a 'link' to the sync bin so to say. Thanks a lot for your video! Enlightening and sometimes it's good think through twice.

[@Graemecns]

I have the speed editor and have two or more groups of clips I wish to sync, I sync my first group of Clips no problem but my second group are a day later. Can I have a second Sync Bin if so how and can I use in the same Time line. At present I open a second project and sync the second group of clips once edited I process and import the new edited clip into my main timeline.

[@JimRobinson-colors]

Not sure why once you build a sync bin that there is no way to reopen it in the Cut page. I think Resolve should have had the option to reopen. I found out about what you are calling the :"hack" because after working on music video, I realized that a couple of tracks were not quite in sync. Was frustrated that it seemed that I couldn't reopen the sync bin and fix it. This tutorial will help others that had that same frustration. Another tip is that when you open the sync in the edit page as you did, if you temporarily unlock all the track, you can grade the clips and then go back and relock them. Then when you drop clip down they have a grade on them.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

You can right click on any sync'd clip in the sync bin and say "open sync group". However the detail you have to work in this window is pretty terrible currently. Excellent tip about doing color grade down inside the sync layers! Another way to achieve a similar result would be to use remote grades, but options are really helpful. Cheers!

[@PVCLime]

Great tutorial but resolve hasn't scored a 10 yet with the speed editor and live multicam. The Live o/wr is everything but live. They have made so many functions that are quite nice but live editing a sync bin or multicam is impossible with the Speed Editor. I want to be able to hit play and then just choose the camera i want by hitting "cam 1" or "cam 2" etc while playing. Resolve stops when I hit a camera on the Speed Editor just as you show in the tutorial with the overwrite style of editing. Why can't they just implement real live editing as it's in a live TV studio? Well, in the Edit page you can edit a multicam clip this way with your keyboard, NOT the Speed Editor. I really hope they fix this issue, and if they have I would be really happy to know about it. I've been searching for a while now and cant find anything about it working that way. Thanks for the videos you do, really great work! It's appreciated :)

[@CreativeVideoTips]

100 percent agree with you! It seems like this would be a very easy thing to implement to give us the option to use those cam buttons to live switch. Thanks for the support and watching. Let's cross our fingers, haha.

[@charliecooper3030]

Hey Chadwick, quality stuff. Quick question if you know off the top of your head. I have two cameras, one with 4 tracks of audio, another with 1. Is Clip Attributes the only way to get the right channel to appear where I want? I can't seem to get the lav audio to show up when I create multicams after syncing with timecodes. I can add new tracks and then mute the first one to ensure that the other track appears on track 2, but every new multicam timeline only gives me two tracks of audio. Any ideas?

[@CreativeVideoTips]

Thanks Charlie - this is a really solid question and I don't know the answer off the top of my head. In general resolve wants to always have sound on channel 1 in clip attributes for sync, but it wouldn't be a bad idea to mimic the same number of channels in that clip attributes window prior to doing a sync bin or multicam clip with them. I don't know if this answers your question so please go into more detail and lets figure out the best solution together.

[@charliecooper3030]

@@CreativeVideoTips The solution I found was to copy the clips to a new sequence and then copy audio tracks in. For some reason multicamera sequences only go by angle and limit to two tracks. Kind of tedious.

[@GaetanoCrisci]

Probably not possible, but like to learn by doing! Any chance can provide the files so we can follow along at home with you? Probably not because this is a music video for a customer, but figured still worth asking!

Hey this is a great idea and I wish I could, but yeah I don't think this is possible - at least not with this particular bit of media. I appreciate the feedback though and might look into ways to make some files available in a training course in the future.

[@TheSlimShaggy]

Gos bless brahs

[@joelarvidsson]

Why cant you throw in all footage in the timeline and have then synced to a long reference track? You can only sync one at the time in the timeline and than you will unsync the first one if you choose the next clip. If you do a mulitcam clip you get this done. But I liked to as a way to sync multiple clips also in the timeline.

[@CreativeVideoTips]

This is just a limitation. There is a workaround to doing one track per time that Billy Rybka covered very well when this feature a while back. It involves moving audio up and down as you go. Very clever. Plural eyes is something that will be able to do what you're asking.

[@joelarvidsson]

Will look the Billy Rybka clip. But mean while syncing everything as multicam get its done. But its a tiny work around. But its just on certain projects that I need to have everything lined up to a reference track. But Im gladly have a look at that video and se I can improve the workflow. Thanks!

This has to be the solution for difficult sync. I have start stop timecode (tod) on one cam and the other is a potato with a different frame rate and a load of conversion drift although it is continious record. Many hours already in trying all sorts to resolve this. A manual line up of each clip on the timeline is the most successful so far but it is too easy to break tracks afterwards. Here goes nothing.

I would generally do this after an edit is complete. When you're using sync bin it is worth starting using what are called "remote grades" in the color page. What this will do is apply the same correction to every instance of the same clip on the timeline.

However, I received a confirmation email from Blackmagic directly that they will no longer support (as of v 18.1.x) what you do here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bX3SipiNf8yGpbM -- In other words, the shortcut keys to move entire clips by SUBFRAME is no longer supported as previous, but now (according to Blackmagic's email) the sub-frame will work only to SLIP AUDIO! Here's the direct quote from tech support at Blackmagic: "The software engineering team got back to us with an explanation. The Slip audio command now operates consistently with other editing operators. Essentially, handles are required for slip operation, be it sub-frame or frame accurate. This will not work on the media without clip handles." This is a DEVASTATING change for us (unless I'm missing what this means and how to overcome the change Blackmagic made with some other way of doing the same thing as you do in the time stamp I've referenced above) as we have no ability to timecode, audio sync will never work in our environment, and we MUST use an audible "clapper" and ability to align entire media clips by subframe according to those "claps" in the audio waveforms. Have you yet experienced this, and if so, what to do?

Hi. You really rock! But what is the mouse-like device you are using?

hi chad, nice video. i've using speed editor for multicam too. i wonder if there's a keyboard shortcut for painting angles?

Thanks Ahsan, if you are referring to kind of roll, trimming the angles out - that is specifically a cut page feature and only can be rolled out with the speed editor. You can always dynamically roll cuts with W, and then JKL as well though to trim any shot in the edit page.
