This Update Will Change Your Life! (Seriously!)

[@MichaelHoughton_]

Hey Don. I think you can apply the effect on a track level from within the edit tab too, click the track and from there add the effects. You can also do it for each individual clips audio by selecting the clip and in inspector under the audio tab. (y)

[@DavidWinstead]

Yes, you are correct! I was just getting ready to comment just that but you beat me to it...

[@donovankean]

Perfect thank you!

[@AnthonyMoreschi]

I love Resolve and I’ve been waiting for this update because FCPX has had it for about 6 months now. It works about the same and I often run my dialogue through FCPX dialogue isolation before bringing it back into Resolve to edit. The track leveler has also been in FCPX for 6 months. The best thing about Resolve updates is they take the best parts of FCPX & PP and combine them with their already crazy powerful tools. I go into PP once and a while to use the music remix feature… PP also does transcription which is pretty powerful. I’m hoping Resolve bites these features for their next update.

[@donovankean]

I admit having the music remix would be awesome!

[@DennisSchmitz]

Also noticed that FCP had it for a while a few days ago. I wonder if anyone could do a comparison between FCP, Resolve and Waves Clarity :D

[@MrMoviePhoneEx]

It’s no Rx, but awesome to have it built into the program all the same! The issue with this kind of design is the lack of control - so yeah, under specific circumstances like wind in an open field, this could be amazing, but I can think of many more challenging situations that this will most likely fail at too - just based on experience and not actual hands on with the tool. Really love this direction though, i remember when Adobe debuted the beta of their sense AI version of this a little over a year ago. Ai can be a powerful QoL for sure :) thanks for the video!

[@donovankean]

Thanks for your comment! Yeah I can agree with that sentiment. I haven't tried it with other situations yet.

[@christianfitzpatrickacs]

It's suprisingly good and in my experience, quite a bit more natural than the voice isolation in RX. I prefer it in FCPX for some things. Certainly has eliminated my need for a round trip to RX 95% of the time.

Well, heck. I really needed this and didn't know it was in 18.1. Glad KZbin pointed me toward this video!

I recorded a video by the ocean with waves, this update came out when I was editing it and I tested it right after updating.

I used to think the studio version of resolve was unnecessary due to how good the regular version is. This feature alone has changed me mind, I'll be sure to purchase it.

[@donovankean]

Agreed! Although another feature I can't live without is processing 10bit video.

[@zvoidx]

When the effect made his voice clean, I'd try recording the/a background separately and put it on a separate track to get more control over the mix vs. adjusting the slider to let in background ambience.

[@donovankean]

I would have done that, but for this specific clip I just had my camera and the Tascam DR-10L on the bride. The wind noise was too much on my camera so I couldn't use it as ambient.

[@zvoidx]

@@donovankean I understand. Perhaps more for general practice/something for videographers to consider in the future. *Edit:* Just to clarify my first comment, technically one could record "the" or "a" (similar) background for a separate, lower volume track. It's not like anyone would scrutinize it. 🙂

[@donovankean]

Thanks for letting me know! I must have missed it in the edit page.

[@christianfitzpatrickacs]

Might want to adjust that title... FCPX has had these features for some time now and I'd say they work a bit better in FCPX. In fact, so many of the best UI features in Resolve come from FCPX. If they'd only just completely copy FCPX and drop it into that edit tab, it would be the best NLE by far.

[@donovankean]

I've had some comments saying that you actually can use this effect in the Edit page, on specific clips rather than an entire audio track. I haven't been able to verify that myself though. In terms of the title I think it still fits. This effect is built into resolve, so you don't need any plugins. I've also seen reports saying that this implementation is much better than others, because of how this AI voice isolator was trained. So it sounds more natural VS others. But again, I personally haven't verified that. I think Blackmagic's main competition is Adobe PP, which Resolve embarrasses quite often 🤷, IMO. But that's just my opinion.

[@AlessioFurlan]

@@donovankean It is not a plugin on Final Cut. It is an integrated function.

[@ArtGuglielmo]

I use Resolve on every project I work on, but not quite sure why videos keep popping up about this in resolve when both Premiere and FCPX have had the same thing for years. Be careful with the Resolve one, it’s quite aggressive and will cut actual words out if you have the threshold too high.

[@donovankean]

Noted! So far with my experience it's been basically flawless. I use it on most of my voice tracks now for wedding films.

[@SteveRussellJuggler]

It’s a great feature. I wish I had had it 6 months ago. One thing you might consider: did you get permission from the wedding couple to share this? I know it is your footage and work, but perhaps there is a less intimate moment of audio/video that you can use to illustrate the feature.

[@donovankean]

Yes! My contract clearly states I can use any or all of the footage for personal/business use.

[@SteveRussellJuggler]

@@donovankean well, your contract might state that, but did you ask? There is a difference. And just because you can, should you? Yeah, I know that you are covered, legally. If you shot my wedding, contract or not, I would not be comfortable with you using a segment like that. My father had a portrait studio for 40 years. I am a video editor. From combined 60 years of working in the image business, I'd advise you to get specific permission. I'm not trying to troll you. I don't have an interest in pressing you on this any further.

[@r0ne85]

Noice! You can hear compression artefacts at lower percentages though. Maybe just duplicate the audio track. Keep one audio track untouched and set the volume to -6dB or lower... Then set the other Audio track with voice isolation at the original or higher dB. That way you wouldn't hear compression artefacts if you still wanted the ambient noise.

[@donovankean]

My guess is what you're hearing is actually either KZbin compression or the compression from my screen recorder. When I recorded this video, the audio sounded much better to me as I was making it VS watching it back on KZbin

[@stanleymakafui]

This is very useful information. Thanks so much

[@HoundDogMech]

Lot easier in the EDIT PG. Now if it were KEY FRAMABLE it wouldn't just a Good Tool it would be a Grate tool. There are some places/occasions you want more background and others you don't. Right now I have to cutup the Different audio tracks to change the AMOUNT Slider. Maybe DR 18.1.2

I use premiere and this is so much better than anything Adobe can offer… like I use parametric eq set to vocal enhancer but it’s not as good as this

[@donovankean]

That's what I've heard! This one is supposedly VERY good, hence my video title.

[@spunFIN]

You're doing it wrong though. There's separated effects for this in Audio Effects > Noise reduction/restoration folder. Some simple cases can even be handled with a couple clicks in Essential Sound window. High pass filter + Dynamics is also a powerful and simple solution sometimes, not to mention Audition if you're feeling nerdy and want actually to analyze the audio issues.

[@philm0graphy]

@@spunFIN I used vocal enhancer (the separate effect) sometimes but it never seemed to have the same quality as the parametric eq preset, but I’ll try that high pass thing thanks bro

[@donovankean]

@@spunFIN "Doing it wrong"? This is just ONE way of doing it. After uploading the video I found out that this effect is also in the Inspector tab. However, I did try that out, and it seemed like it didn't perform as well as just appying it to a "Voice Track". I think it's been pretty well established that this is more than just a High Pass Filter+ Dynamics. Blackmagic themselves have piblished that this uses their Neural Network to filter the noise. By my estimation, this effect is also using WAY more computing power to boot, also suggesting it's more than just a simple audio effect. I would argue this is more similar to Nvidia's Broadcast App which uses their RT Cores and Neural Network to filter out noise.

[@spunFIN]

@@donovankean Well, obviously in his case it was the wrong one, but yes, surely just one of the many options Adobe offers. I agree that AI is the future of audio and graphics restoration, but it's not there yet when it comes to one-click solutions. Sure, it works in some cases, but not in many others. Broadcast is also super cool and works very well sometimes, but quite often you'd need to run some vst plugins with it to actually make your voice sound good and natural. Sorry for sounding so harsh, got triggered by your video title. It's kinda like the same when you compare various different AI tools to Photoshops content-aware fill and then say Photoshop sucks. Or RunwayML's roto to Ae's and say Ae sucks.

You should change the title. Those who use various software, and not just one, know that this function does not embarrass anyone because there are those who do better. FCXP also has this function integrated for six months and - in my opinion that I use them both - it works better, it is better integrated and not by problems such as DVR.

This was an embarrassment for Resolve to not have! I’m teaching both Premiere Pro & Rush and FCP to beginners and FCPX had “clarity” and “noise reduction” each 1click available on all audio since ca 10 years. Then Premiere had a good look at that and copied it into their “Essential Sound” Panel about 3-4years ago and then added “Reverb reduction” ca 1-2 years ago which reduces room noise. So then about 0,5-1year ago Final Cut finally got an update after 10years and now FCP has a A.I. powered “voice isolation” slider …. This has been an ongoing battle which Premiere had won and they even added all of that into the beginner friendly Premiere Rush (looks kind like the cut page in Resolve)…. All the while Resolve had NOTHING. Compressors, de-esser and rudimentary noise reduction did nothing like this and are not easy for beginners to learn. So the lack of this was the NO.1 REASON for me to not recommend Resolve to beginners. As many Film on a smartphone without microphone and couldn’t rescue the sound in Resolve. Now they can. This feature is awesome. But your click-bait title of this video deserves a history lesson. ;)

[@torinux4980]

Premiere's feature isn't that good to be honest, but I agree with the sentiment that it took quite some time for Resolve to add this feature. That being said, we have to keep in mind that Resolve is just a baby compared to Premiere and FCPX so for me is not that much of an embarrassment for Resolve. It's like comparing Affinity Suite features to those from Adobe, they don't have the same years on the market so missing features are to be expected.

[@tobiaslofi]

@@torinux4980 true. Premiere’s noice canceling features aren’t as good as this. And there’s always that “Waves noise canceling plug-in” that could be used in all DAWs/NLEs that support VSTs however I wasn’t talking about pro editor users but beginners coming from smartphones and e.g. TikTok’s build in mini editor has “noise canceling/voice isolation” that is good enough with one click. And Resolve had nothing usable - why as a in-house designer/ journalist who now also has to make videos do you have to convince your boss to shell out thousands of $$ for cameras lights lenses mics and editing software (and plug-ins) when Tiktok on a smartphone makes it free and good enough? For this type of audience/usergroup (which is my main course audience) it’s a very hard sell. So most currently try Premiere Pro and Rush because “it’s what your supposed to be using” and it comes included “with Photoshop subscription”…. But often Resolves cut page with a bit of Fairlight and color would be enough/easier/better.

"For audio, DaVinci Resolve Studio 18.1 adds new AI based voice isolation track FX so you can remove loud, undesirable sounds from voice recordings. By adding DaVinci Neural Engine enabled voice isolation to the cut, edit and Fairlight pages using a new DaVinci Neural Engine AI based core effects process, you can isolate dialog from background sounds in a recording, eliminating everything else from moderate noise to aircraft and explosions leaving only the voice. Voice isolation is perfect for interviews and dialogue recordings from noisy locations."

@@donovankean Yes, I understand, but this is nothing you can't do with eq and a gate. That's all I am saying.

[@donovankean]

@@Morpheus170 I disagree. This is probably more akin to Nvidia's broadcast app which has AI noise removal. Which, if I were to guess, actually does some reconstructing of the voice based on what it thinks it should sound like. Is be interested to see the model these were trained on though, as I'm just speculating.

this is nothing new! I have an old editing system and I have plug-ins that can do that. all BMD has done is have it part of their system without YOU buying a plugin. to say BMD has embarrassed their competition is BANANAS!

[@donovankean]

It's new to Resolve, and in my opinion sounds the best compared to the competition. Hence the title!

[@carlosteixeira5747]

@@donovankean it not the best... it's good but there are better ones like Clarity Vx pro.

I used voice isolation on one of my videos. It saved the audio I was going to do a voiceover but it came out really usable. There was a LOT of wind noise See the video below. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJ6rlJeLm7WErrs

Very nice!

18.1 is incredibly unstable. Crash crash crash crash crash crash not worth it right now.

[@donovankean]

That's too bad! I've had really good luck with it.

[@wryr]

bro you've got to get to the point quicker it's so hard to watch

[@donovankean]

I'll keep that in mind for sure! Thanks for watching though. 😁

[@lautarogoldin9059]

suena pesimo

[@donovankean]

Yo pienso que suena muy buena! Pero solo mi opinion 🤷

[@HenriT]

these AI things are pretty good... but sad that they kill raw skills

[@donovankean]

That's a good point! I was never very good at audio processing though, so this is great for me as someone who doesn't really want to spend the time and effort to become an audio engineer.
