H, Daniel. I'm a 73 year-old musician, who is a video Noob, who wants to leave some legacy examples of my music to my children and grandchildren. I'd like to create a video of my performing all the parts of songs, such as the lead vocal, harmonies, lead guitar, rhythm guitar, bass, keyboard, violin, drums, banjo, etc. How would I go about blending a single audio track and a 3x3 matrix of me playing a different instrument in each widow? I guess it's called a collage or split screens. Are there any stock footage at Storyblocks that could help with that? Actually, It would be great if you could make a Noob video showing how to do that in DaVinci Resolve! Thanks!

[@davidvader8723]

This is by FAR the best video on you tube describing the use of this feature! Sadly I can't get Davinci 18.5 to work(see comment down below). Really enjoyed the guitar, two guitar into amp metaphor, made it way easier to understand for someone like myself that's beginning. thank you Subbed

[@stealthstar4]

Ever since the software switch, you've been getting ultra love and growth to your channel. Glad they lost you to D.R.

[@Malmioo]

More than happy with Envato Elements instead, but great tutorial about fusion thanks sir

[@tacticalpirateairsoft1955]

For animated Arrow is there a way to add a sound effect infusion?

[@wyattzx]

One tip I would recommend for editors new to Fusion as well: if you right-click anywhere in your Nodes region (but not on any node) you'll see an option "Line Up All Tools To Grid" which you can click to organize your nodes automatically. Combine this with the option directly above, "Arrange Tools" and select "to Grid" and not only will your existing nodes be organized, but all future nodes will automatically snap to the grid. This is good for staying on top of your nodes, and for me, it helps to visualize my nodes more like puzzle pieces than just a smattering of effects all across a workspace.

[@coltonherzz]

this will pay infinite dividends. Thank you!

[@Willie_Wahzoo]

Thank you, sir.

[@kevinbillington9773]

Also if you right mouse click on the grid. Choose options and set to Orthogonal pipes. T he pipe lines travel in angled lines. If you Alt left click on a node pipe it will put a little junction box on the pipeline you can drag around to organise the pipework.

[@Foley_Films]

Great advice!!

[@for-better-future]

bro i latterly didn't understand anything

[@chiefswiggum]

I've been using davinci resolve for 4 years now and im so happy to see everyones switching to it because of how great it is

[@Daniel_Batal]

100%

[@philipoplatco-hibu508]

The guitar plugging into the amp is the best way i've seen this described so far. Thank you!

[@Daniel_Batal]

Glad it helped!

[@billsmith-jr5zv]

Agreed. Good analogy. I had an amazing college algebra teacher in college who always used real life examples for whatever she was teaching that day. It definitely helps to break stuff down in a way you feel like you can understand.

[@JKCCKF]

Totally agree… Great analogy!

[@GregD..666]

I couldn't agree more 🤘

[@officialmcdeath]

Not just a simple explanation that doesn't talk down but also a seamless, contextually relevant, blending-in of the sponsor - salute and many thanks, this was the tutorial I needed right now \m/

[@Daniel_Batal]

Hey thanks! I really appreciate that. Love having a few great sponsors that are willing to work with a knucklehead like me but I do try to keep it about the conversation as much as possible

[@G-and-J-Chapel-Artworks]

I've seen many great effects tutorials for fusion but, they were advanced instruction. Your "dumbed down" explanation is so much easier to follow that I'm now more confident in trying some of those effects. Thank you for this.

[@Daniel_Batal]

👊😎☮️

[@lunchladyland1562]

I agree! You got a way with words kind sir! Learning a lot!

[@williamtowner1024]

As a certified NOOB, this really helped me understand the FUSION page and tools a little better. Thx Daniel. Your videos are very cool, concise and well thought out as a teacher. I appreciate it and love your channel.

[@Daniel_Batal]

Sweet. Thanks, William. Fusion is awesome but definitely has a tricky learning curve.

[@jammer2150]

You are making understanding fusion and Davinci resolve so much easier than any of the 100's of how to videos I have watched. Thumbs up and a sub, please keep the how to Davinci resolve videos coming

[@hectorcastro8374]

I've been watching your DaVinchi and KZbin Videos and I just want to say that you have a great understanding of what you say and how you say it. Lots of the tutorials I see, people tend to assume that the audience understands the basic language of what's being explained. But you are very aware of what you're saying and will even stop to explain things that may seem "basic" to others. Personally, I think that takes a lot of time and thought to try and think of what may confuse viewers, so thank you for that.

[@Daniel_Batal]

My pleasure, Hector. Thanks for the kind words ☮️

[@rightcurve9761]

Your skill to explain complex stuff in easy way is amazing. Good video contents, calm and nice voice. Well done!

[@Daniel_Batal]

Thanks!

[@user-jh7og3qv2k]

Finally, an explanation and demonstration of the basic functions of fusion that was easy to follow and made sense. You taught me Filmora, and I hope to see more Noob video spots (succinct and informative) about Resolve and more detailed tutorials on the software as time goes on. You are a wonderful teacher!

[@Daniel_Batal]

Glad this was helpful, Theresa!

[@JustininTaiwan]

Nicely done! Getting into Resolve after years on Pr; your explanantion expedites the teething process.

[@spartanstanley]

This instantly made the second most overwhelming tab in Davinci approachable. Love it! Well done!

[@DebErney]

I’m a musician/videographer and just learning DAVINCI Resolve and I was happy to find this video. The video is spot on. Easily understood with demos. Really enjoy your videos. THANK YOU!!❤

[@Daniel_Batal]

Glad it was helpful!

[@NoodleNick]

Honestly I love the way you can explain things and make them easy to understand. The whole "using math terms to try and explain math" thing was a great metaphor! I've been on a channel binge not gonna lie

[@Daniel_Batal]

Hey thanks! I appreciate that ☮️

[@travelingualizer3217]

As always, straight forward, very well explained and easy to understand! Thanks Daniel!

[@DesignSphere0786]

i stopped the video at 3 minute to give you respect that you know how to teach to beginners

[@Daniel_Batal]

Hey thanks! I appreciate you taking the time to give me feedback. And thank you for the kind words. (Now get back to watching my video 😜)

[@glennfritzsche4523]

You have a great way of explaining EVERYTHING in terms that us NOOBS can understand...thank you.

[@Daniel_Batal]

Happy to help!

[@mrvenatuszomb3269]

dude this really helped me get an idea of what fusion is. before this i was really confused. thank you so much. u earned my sub 👍

[@Guts48]

Thank you for this awesome tutorial, no spoon feeding, also giving room for creativity

[@Daniel_Batal]

You are so welcome! Thanks for the kind words ☮️

[@avalache9]

You're doing a great thing Sir! Thank You so much!

[@blingauntie]

This is the lesson I've been ready to learn. Thank you for explaining so clearly that I can understand.

[@Daniel_Batal]

Fusion is definitely a BEAST. I hope this helps simplify it.

[@rano12321]

Now this is gonna get more fun. Also funny enough, 0:06 the best OG Fusion YT channel on YT is called Pirates of Confusion haha. Also, the guitar amp analogy was great for beginners to understand, I personally used the basic plumbing pipeline analogy while learning it.

[@Daniel_Batal]

I'll have to check out that channel! That made me chuckle

[@pupstudio]

Once again, you’ve outdone yourself as a Davinci Instructor! I have my iPad in front of me watching your videos and following along working on Davinci at the same time. Without your awesome ways of explaining things clearly, precisely, with no BS, I’m learning zillions times faster than any other videos I’ve found! Keep em coming! Thanks from GA!

[@Daniel_Batal]

Are you running unlocked Fusion on iPad? You’re a brave soul 😅

[@VideoGameStoryTime]

The effects pedal analogy is perfect! This really is the best explanation of the fusion tab I've seen!

[@Daniel_Batal]

Glad that made sense

[@DocuLearnTM]

Thanks for the tutorial! I just started using this software for my channel, and I'm still quite a noob at it :') I will for sure try and use these tips on my next documentary:)

[@lukamrse1324]

as someone who just started to learn fusion, this is a nice example, makes a good point and you ve turned an idea into a nice lesson

[@reedrobinson7772]

Well explained. Thanks!

[@StevieWyatt]

As a guitarist I found this analogy particularly helpful, thanks!

[@maddogrk1]

A really great job of making this very clear and showing me how I can use it even though I am probably through there a long infusion then some other people are looking at this. I wish I had seen it sooner because you did such a clear job of show me what I can do with it.

[@Daniel_Batal]

Glad this was helpful!

[@The_Notebooks]

Informative and truly fun to watch you explaining stuffs.. Thank you so much

[@ForgeAheadwithMike]

The guitar analogy is a great way to understand the basics of Fusion. Thanks!

[@Daniel_Batal]

My pleasure!

[@czarcoma]

Appreciate everything you're doing Daniel. Been checking out your work since Filmora. I've switched to Resolve myself. Looking forward to beating film student kid's ass with it. ;-) She's using the Adobe. hehehe Fellow pretending to be musician too. Love the guitar>effects>amplifier analogy. I understood the way Fusion works right away.

[@Daniel_Batal]

Thanks, Richard. Glad this was useful. And BIG THANKS for the SuperThanks! Much appreciated. ❤️

[@technicalface]

I saw your whole video and i really like the way you teach us sir thank you

[@Daniel_Batal]

Thanks! I appreciate the kind words 🙏

Great dear, you have made this understandable. first simple video

[@Daniel_Batal]

Thank you so much 🙂

[@kartheeka1843]

Hey Daniel I am watching you after an year I quit editing due to my college life i just wanted to see how much you have grown I miss my childhood so much. I watched you editing tips followed them and got good remarks from my friends,dad and other relatives missed those days

[@Daniel_Batal]

Nice!

[@szabikolllar]

As a guitar player... THANK YOU FOR THE ANALOGY! I've never thought about this page like this.

[@Daniel_Batal]

Rock on!

[@Dreymasmith]

Fairlight was the big opaque box for me that I had to work at, and thank you so much for cracking that nut. Fusion is a great visual way of putting effects in (so much easier than Filmora). Still got a steep learning curve on it, but I've been having fun. Same sort of approach as Unreal Engine with game design. Thanks again for all you are doing to walk us Resolve Noobs through the learning process!

[@Daniel_Batal]

Have you been using any of the VST plugins in Fairlight?

[@Dreymasmith]

@@Daniel_Batal Not yet. I had to jog my memory as to what they are (I know you covered them in your Fairlight video, but some days I'm a bear of small brain). They seem to be very useful to find where problems lie - I shall have to remember to have a play around with them.

[@35milesoflead]

​@Daniel Batal I recently swapped to Davinci Resolve from Vegas, and the thing that sold it was vst 3 support in both edit and Fairlight. My Studio One Fat Channel completely supported.

[@charley3849]

Great, thanks! Basic, clear, HELPFUL instruction. First video I've watched of yours, but not the last!

[@Daniel_Batal]

Glad it helped!

[@physicaltodigital]

really enjoying your tutorials man, thanks!

[@ealanosborne]

Being a composer myself, the music examples helped a TON! Thank you SO MUCH! Switching to DaVinci Resolve has been quite the undertaking, so this helped wrapped my head around Fusion that much more. 🤘🤘

Great to hear!

[@markwornom1050]

Very useful, thanks!

[@DavidWagelmans]

Best fusion tut out there 🎉 thanks

[@markchristensen1360]

DUDE! You're freaking awesome. This was massively helpful. The simplicity mixed with the guitar analogy..... It all worked and now I'm gonna start messing with that section where when I saw other videos go to the fusion page I was always like, "well, I guess I'm not doing that one..." Thank you Daniel. You have a new sub.

[@Daniel_Batal]

Glad that was helpful! This video is sort of “step 2” for Fusion-> kzbin.infoV_hm-kCWWwY?si=1lwYKJs075Rkwxdj

[@fletcherbrown728]

Been watching your videos since your Filmora days and you are absolutely the best TEACHER out there. Your scripting, pace, dialog, clear diction all come together to make fantastic instructional videos. However, I think this “simple” explainatoin of how to do a couple of simple things in Resolve just convinced me to stick with FCPX for now. I’ll keep watching your videos because I love to learn from a master.

[@Daniel_Batal]

Stick with what works for you

[@vahaan7256]

Explaining it like a guitar is the perfect way to correlate and explain this, it makes so much more sense now, thank you

[@Daniel_Batal]

Glad that made sense.

[@UFOBobTV]

Finally some clarity regarding the logic of Fusion. Thank you.

[@Daniel_Batal]

[@StupidFastJohn]

great way of explaining this! thank you sir

Dude, the way you explain how do things is so easy to understand. Im new to Resolve and editing in general. I have watched heaps of tutorials and end up banging my head on the desk in frustration. Great job. Liked and subscribed. Look forward to watching all your tutorials.

[@Daniel_Batal]

Thanks, Brett. I've got a Shorts series that drops one new Davinci Resolve tip or technique every day. That's where most of my focus has been on this topic recently. kzbin.info/aero/PLsVDy3wGxbDA-pvAT1eH2_khEe0lDe90e

[@Daniel_Batal]

Glad that was helpful!

[@jimburns7549]

On KZbin there are some teachers and many exhibitionists. Teachers are those whose aim is for others to understand what s/he understands. Student comprehension is the goal. Teachers want students to know what they know. Exhibitionists are those whose aim is to show what they know. The video is an exhibit to demonstrate what s/he can do. This video is truly a tutorial, because it’s creator is a teacher. Teachers are a blessing to everyone who seeks to learn. Thank you for wanting others to know what you know.

Nice intro to Fusion. I was working with it today before I watched this video, and almost had no idea what did what. This video helped me quite a bit. You are the second creator I have heard recommend Story Blocks.

[@Daniel_Batal]

Fusion is a beast once you get a handle on it. And Storyblocks now has DaVincie Reaolve templates & transitions. I like the combo

[@GMZEntertainment]

You are my first teacher who resolved DaVinci (Con)Fusion for me. Thanks trillion times.

[@notaleuntold]

What an awesome analogy. It instantly helped me understand the nodes and how they kinda work.

[@Daniel_Batal]

Glad that helped!

[@schatzy62]

So much HELP this has been. I have watched at least a dozen other Fusion Learning tutorials and NONE have given me the insite into how it works. Your video on the other hand was AWESOME. I now now understand how Nodes work, just have to figure out what each type does. Now I have made 2 new Fancy end credits for my videos that are just awesome. Thanks again I will be watching more of your videos soon.
