Speed Editing in DaVinci Resolve's Cut Page

[@yangsu4358]

very helpful, thanks.

That's simply the most useful video on the topic. Just started using the cut page and, dare I say, it WILL save me lots of hours with picking and trimming clips. Thank you!

[@christopherpook4269]

I agree with you!

[@StocksyUnited]

Glad to hear it helped! It is a new way of editing, but once you got a hold of it, especially with the speed editor, you'll be flying through your footage.

Thanks, this is a really helpful summary of the cut page. I think most people just jump straight to the edit page, but I can really see the benefit of getting a project off to a quick start in the cut page, especially when you have a larger number of clips to work with.

[@StocksyUnited]

Thanks Andy. Yes, the keyword is 'speed' here. Couple that with the DaVinci Speed Editor and you're cruising.

Most helpful video I’ve seen on how to use the Cut page.

[@StocksyUnited]

Awesome, thank you!

[@Sustainavore]

This was really helpful, and you added a lot of info other people didn't that will definitely help me to become much faster. Thank you!

[@StocksyUnited]

You're welcome!

Thank you!

When I first saw Da Vinci, I immediately wondered: why is there a CUT and EDIT, how do they differ? Because all of the other tutorials start from the Edit mode. This video answered my question, and I love my cut mode and the overview of the whole project. Edit mode just goes straight into fine-tuning the parts of it.

[@StocksyUnited]

Glad it helped Julia! I was wondering exactly of the same question. I think if it comes down to a single keyword, the Cut page is about efficiency. And it handles that extremely well. Even more if you have the Speed editor. Thanks for the comment!

This was a fantastic video. Opened up a bunch of hotkeys that I needed to learn about. Do you have a recommended Hotkey reference I should be using?

[@StocksyUnited]

Glad to hear, thank you! I don't have a specific one to recommend, but I guess any recent version Resolve shortcut cheat sheet will do. I am personally using the 32 key Stream Deck interface where you can custom-map each key to a shortcut.

Resolve is an Nle to be reckoned with, thanks for your insights.

Very good introduction to the cut page. I have recently started to edit most of my videos in the cut page - especially, I do like the source-tape mode. But there is on little CAVEAT which I had to learn the hard way: if you use source tape with a high number of clips in a bin (and sub-folders) - let's say 100+ - it can easily happen that you press 'I' for in and just forget to correctly hit the button 'o' for out. In this case DR adds all clips after the In-point to the timeline. If you do not recognize this and continue editing you will have a tough time at the end, i.e. finding exactly from where things went wrong and deleting the unwanted clips out of your sequence - Puh, that's nasty. Anyway, the cut page is awesome as is your video!

[@StocksyUnited]

Ouch! I can see that being an issue. I wish they would allow us to add markers on the source tape. One thing I always do when I use source tape is to take a short peak at the clip I just appended to the timeline and do a mental check-off that I actually dropped the right clip. Thanks for your comments and feedback!

[@joyoffilming9500]

@@StocksyUnited great advice! Will keep it in mind for next bigger edit. Thanks a lot.

[@StocksyUnited]

@@joyoffilming9500 of course!!

[@autismspeakz]

Do you know how to add multiple in and out points to a single source clip at once? Because i keep forgetting to press f9 and want to import everything at once

[@dr.saadawy]

I don't have the options for the playhead lock at all, how can I get it?

[@lvstd02]

[@StocksyUnited]

[@autismspeakz]

Oh nvm i was on the fkn media page lol timeline is on the cut page

[@fleshtrashheat]

editing on a Mac, no F9 key. Anyone know the equivalent ?

[@StocksyUnited]

It depends on your keyboard setup. You might need to hit the FN key to switch to the F9.

[@autismspeakz]

you can also change f keys function in the preferences keyboard section
