Audio Compression Davinci Resolve 17 Tutorial For Beginners

[@zbcsermons]

I was looking for a tutorial on compression so did a youtube search, clicked on a video and boy was I pleased when I seen your face because past experience has taught me that you my man are the real deal, I knew instantly when I seen it was you that I was going to properly learn something and not just end up more confused. Well guess what as usual, you did not disappoint. You are a fabulous teacher imho and I am very grateful that you do these tutorials because mere mortals like me would be lost. Take care and please keep doing this because you are superb at what you do.

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Thank you Chris!! I really appreciate the comment bro ✌️

[@chr1280]

Definitely learned something new with the side chain compression. Thanks!

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Happy to help! Thanks for the comment 👊✌

[@TheNeatwork]

You have really professional presentation. You're finding topics in Resolve education that are underserved and you're making deep but easy-to-follow videos that don't cut things too short and also don't meander. It's evident your channel is underrated. Keep it up Marcel!!

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙏 I really appreciate you taking the time to leave such kind words 😭 they are very inspiring 💪✌️

[@quickpickle]

This tutorial helped lots. Literally felt overwhelmed every time I opened fairlight. Thanks man!

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Happy to help! Thanks for the comment 👊✌️

[@YEYSHONAN]

You're fantastic! EQ first, Effects, then Dynamics! Yes, I totally agree million percent! Thank you for clarifying. You're one of the best I've seen!!!

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Thank you 🙌 I really appreciate the kind words my friend 👊✌️

[@Jaakeup]

Wow, I was actually really skeptical about clicking on this video. I was initially only looking for a 1 min video on how to add compression in Davinci but I clicked on this video because I really need to stop taking shortcuts and just sit down and learn something new. This was super in depth and I really appreciate the new knowledge I learned from it. Thank you very much for this!

[@Fredrik_Arvidsson]

Thanks! Finally a person who explains this in such an educational way that even I understand some of it.

[@ifound14u]

This is the first good audio tutorial for DR17 I have seen. Keep up the good work and hope to see more!

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Thank you Michael! Many more to come 👊✌

[@jackboxandco]

I'm new to the Fairlight but after waching this video I'm not new anymore I feel like I could charge more from the clients This is one of the greatest contents on KZbin Thanks so much

[@sungjinwoo8264]

Marcel, your videos are just next level. Funnily enough, there wasn't a lot out there on echo removal - clicked and now I've watched your whole audio workflow. The format is perfect, and I've learnt loads while enjoying your craft/ Thanks!!

[@tee_ef_em]

Broooo! This video opened me up to so much, man. I’ve heard the side-chain effect all my life and now I can replicate it thanks to you!

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Happy to help! Thanks for the comment bro! 👊✌️

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Thank you bro 🙏 I really appreciate all the kind words 👊✌️

[@justinward3218]

Excellent tutorial! I knew next to nothing about compressors before watching this, now I'm getting the desired effect in my video.

[@joeledelblute]

Learned a lot from this video... have been trying to wrap my mind around compression for a long time and this cleared up quite a bit. Gonna check out the EQ video next.

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Glad this helped man! Compression can seem a lot more complicated than it is. Hope you enjoy the EQ video, it's a beast... I really appreciate you taking the time to comment Joel 🙏👊✌️

[@ChristineKimisthebest]

I don't usually comment on videos, but I just had to let you know how amazing this tutorial was! Very informative and clear. Thank you!

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Happy to help Christine! I really appreciate you taking the time to leave such kind words 🙌😁✌️

[@rasmachris94]

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Thank you my friend! I really appreciate the kind words 🙌👊✌️

Thanks for the very important details, but also thank you for making this with lots of joy and passion ! ✌🏻🙋🏻‍♂

[@Okayest__DM]

Just jumping in to fixing audio in post. I'm going to watch this video link 6 times. So much useful information, with perfect examples! Great job, man. Thank you!

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Thank you Okayest! I appreciate the kind words my friend 🙌✌️👊

[@Okayest__DM]

@@TheModernFilmmaker could you throw a link in the description for the Equalizing video you mentioned here a few times?

[@bbennett8772]

Marcel, I thank you very much. You are one of the most talented teachers I have found on KZbin. I am totally thankful that I found you, and commend you, highly. All you are sharing is extremely valuable to me. And I'm sure to others, too. I am deeply appreciative.

[@slowdimstudio]

I've used Ableton for a long time, and it's crazy how the process is the same yet completely different, your tutorials are on point though so I appreciate you taking the time to be thorough!

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Ableton is the best! It is my go to music production DAW. I'm glad this helped! Thanks for the comment SlowDim! 👊✌️

[@mitchellnurseproductions]

I just bought that Waves NS 1 plug in because of this video. Wow, what a difference it makes!

Duuuuuude! It is the best, I don't know how they made something so perfect 🤯 Thank you for the comment Mitchell! 👊✌️

[@rdj8060]

The best tutorial I've ever seen. Thx bro!

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Thank you @RDJ !!! 👊✌️

[@dylantucker7951]

Awesome content. Of course it helps having a video about good audio when your own voice is as smooth as that man, bloody hell.

[@andrewmason8691]

Brilliant. One of my favourite videos to date. It will make a big difference to the interview videos I do.

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Thank you Andrew! I really appreciate the kind words 👊✌️

Very helpful - thanks for putting this out there for us!

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Happy to help! Thanks for the comment Mike 👊✌

[@ErikFrits]

This is awesome tutorial. My audio editing until now was all about manually dragging voice levels up and down on clips. Finally going to implement compressor knowing what each setting is doing! Huge Thanks!

[@rdstudios-production]

Always helpful - you've got the best mannerism, analogies and pacing for simplifying these kind of processes rather than regurgitating from the manual. Thanks man.

Thank you! I really appreciate you taking the time to leave such kind words 🙌👊✌️

[@glennhohnberg7262]

Great video - really helpful. And yesssss - NS1 Noise suppressor. What a great recommendation!

[@Jose_T131]

Really appreciate brother, One of the best tutorials , thanks man. Fisrt time I understand the concepts of the compressor, some people just give us to use random numbers

Worth clicking twice. That was fantastic.

Great stuff man. I'm getting back into the editing chair after a decade away to edit a documentary I shot in Ukraine. So much has changed in that time and it's been a bit daunting getting familiar with new software and all the advanced capabilities that have been added. Your tutorials are quite accessible and targeted. Thank you for the time and effort you have put into these.

Hi man, thx for the great tutorial. Do you know what is done to create the effect of hearing a person talk via phone as it's done so often in movies? Say the scene is of a person talking on the phone, and we don't see who they are talking to, we only hear their voice. Would love to know how common effects like this one is done.

Thank you very much for the Sidechain trick!

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

You are very welcome! Thanks for the comment 👊✌️

[@OlympiaMortgageLender]

Alternatively, you could use the vocal channel processor effect, which has an EQ for basic first adjustments. Then you can add dynamics and a final EQ once your base tone is setup. Just a thought for using FX DY EQ, since it's nice to have a the finer adjustments with in the EQ section for the final touches. There are so many different ways to acheive a great result, thanks for sharing!

[@TheModernFilmmaker]

Great insight here!!! Thanks a lot for sharing 👊✌️

Whoa. You're *really* good at this... Thanks! 💫

[@elmachacacs9284]

This video is awesome!. Is one of the best video of compression that i see!. I really appreciate what you explain, i learn something really good!. I'm very thankfull, it will be an honour and really hellpfull if you can do one explaining the frequencies like the gain of recording and the noise that the microphone does because of the gain, and how to reduce it. Thank you :D

[@murisocrates]

Legendary tutorial, helped me a LOT

[@dougdina]

Thanks for another great video. One thing though, I’ve been using Sidechaining as you showed here but I’ve been clicking Send on the vocal tracks compression window. Then, all the music tracks, I click Listen. It works but it’s different in your video. I think that you can use you method (adding Sidechain to Bus Outs) if you don’t use Send on the vox tracks. That’s my guess. It makes sense, though. The music compressor needs to know what to listen to. So, you can send via Send on the compressor or by adding sidechain to the Bus Outs.
