What can it ACTUALLY do? Davinci Resolve Free Vs Paid!

[@jack5590]

Good policy on the free version. Create the community, get them profitable, sell them products to increase skill and profitability. This is the kind of business I like.

[@AlenPesec]

True, just learning it myself for free!😍 I did see, however, more turorials done in after effects, but I am trying to do the stuff from AE in DR. Green screen and it's controls are really straightforward and easy. It's the effects like "superhero landing" and "cutting limbs away" stuff that I'd like to learn in DR.

[@derJackistweg]

This is exactly what PhaseOne with Capture One did. And than ... they skipped the express version for sony. and than ... the Upgrade from express (free) to Full Version for 1 specific brand went from 99€ up to .... ... 249€!!! They completely freaked out. 249 just for Sony cams of course. A price jump by 150%!!! So I use luminar now. But I also use BM Studio now with its speed editor.

[@rahuls4863]

So true, really good strategy - helps them and us. Others like CC uses 'How much man we squeeze out?' strategy. In past there were only CC tutorials, so people dint have a choice. Thanks to Alex and this community, we now have good alternative :)

[@True_Christian]

Most people are never going to pay for it though, unless they are super hardcore about their jobs, like Hollywood editors, which is only a small handful, so it's actually a terrible business model.

[@derJackistweg]

@@True_Christian Nope. I PAID 300€ and I am not Hollywood. Why? Because I want to use my GH6 + Lenses (=several grand) in its FULL potential. Means: I want to grade VLOG and I want to edit >4K Like C4K and 5.7k

[@sidwainhouse]

I've been using the free version for a few months as a complete amateur and the amount this software can do is unbelievable. I'll probably never be able to justify buying the full paid version but if I needed to it would be the one I go for.

[@workingwiththelight3119]

I have been using free Davinci for years but just to want test Canon R 6 and R 7 c-log files and they don't work as they were 10bit videos.

Same here. Tried FCP didn’t male any sense to me. Find davinci very intuitive

[@XVIIsionsProductions]

It’s worth it. Just upgrade. I should have done it sooner. 🙌🏻

[@Northpaal]

@@workingwiththelight3119 I'm considering also just going for it and upgrading. But i don't seem to understand how to be sure if the free one supports s-log3 10 bit 4.2.2 on my a7iv. How can I tell? Cause some people say you can tell by its ability to import it or not, but mine can import the footage just fine.

[@SkanDogVids]

I only have a GTX 1060 I think its 3GB I'll have to save up and spend $2K 🤦

[@isloths]

This was literally exactly what I was looking for in a video. I love how you talked about why its free because it really does seem too good to be true. I love how you went through everything its got to offer, and all your points were very well said and concise. Thank you.

[@yakbreeder]

I've got a stone age i5 750 & Gtx 750Ti and DaVinci is the only editor I can use without it crippling my system. Granted I can't edit an hours worth of 4k footage, but I'm impressed with what it can do on an ancient computer.

[@HalfdeadRider]

Not true, other software like Sony's movie studio platinum will not give your system nearly as hard a time as Davinci free does. I used to switch between the two depending on what I was doing until I built a better system in 2020.

[@yakbreeder]

@@HalfdeadRider I've got Movie Studio Platinum 9, (got it shortly after building my i5) but it's painfully slow rendering out the final video.

I have an GTX 750ti and an old CPU.. Trying to use DaVinci but I realize that the render don't use the GPU. Even using H-265 like some tutorials teach about DaVinci 17. I like it, but I'll come back to Premiere. 😔

00:13 🎮 The video is sponsored by Nvidia, showcasing a Razer Blade 17 with an Nvidia RTX 3080 TI laptop GPU for enhanced performance in creative applications like DaVinci Resolve. 01:20 💻 DaVinci Resolve offers a free version with no catch, but requires a decent system to run. It's recommended to have a device with a dedicated graphics card for optimal performance. 02:03 🖥 The free version supports hardware-accelerated encoding for faster rendering, but only with one GPU. The paid studio version allows for multiple GPUs. 02:44 🔄 Free version allows unlimited usage and all future upgrades and updates are included. It can be used offline without any online DRM requirements. 03:27 🚫 Watermarks appear in the free version only when using Studio-only features, providing a clear indication of where the watermark will be applied. 03:40 🖼 The free version has a maximum resolution limit of Ultra HD (3840x2160) for both timeline and export quality, but can import higher resolution footage. 04:09 📏 Custom aspect ratio timelines are available in the free version, allowing for creative video formatting (landscape, portrait, square, etc.). 04:35 🎥 While higher frame rate footage can be imported, the free version is limited to a 60 frames per second export capability. 05:17 📷 The free version is primarily designed for consumer-level 8-bit footage and may not handle higher bit depths as effectively. 06:13 🎬 Transitions, titles, and visual effects in the free version are similar to those in the paid studio version. Some effects, like noise reduction, are limited tothe studio version. 07:38 🌈 Color grading capabilities in the free version are extensive, offering control over highlights, shadows, contrast, colors, saturation, and more. 09:45 🔊 The Fairlight system for audio controls, including effects like noise reduction, compression, and pitch adjustments, is available in the free version. 11:47 📤 The free version allows for exporting in various formats with control over quality settings like bitrate. Custom export presets can be created for efficiency.

Ohhhh ai bot!

[@brandbird]

Excellent timing Alex, as just today I recommended Resolve for someone and he downloaded the free version, and was wondering about the Studio version. I also recommended your channel to learn the basics and differences to the programs he's used previously. Excellent video as usual. I've only been using DR for about a year and I really love how easy it is and how much I can do with the free version. I've learned a lot thanks to you and other Resolve content creators, so cheers mate!

[@R1po]

Using it for 2 years now. It was really easy to learn the basics, the tool has all I need, and it even offers nice transitions. For small content creators like me, it's perfect.

[@iTzzRyuu]

You gotta upload some stuff again, last one is a year ago! Am really interested in how much you improved from your last video, air symphony :)

[@lesportautrement]

2 precisions : sorry but in the free version, you have a noise reduction in fusion with the old code " RemoveNoise" and you have also a motion blur in fusion with the old code " OpticalFlow" + "VectorMotionBlur". They do the job for those who edit a film as a hobby like me. @+.

[@yuriyuzu]

It is still working ?

[@lesportautrement]

@@yuriyuzu Yes it is.

[@Gaven7r]

[@3dchick]

I started with Resolve on 16, used it very contedly, both Windows and Mac, until 18. With that they introduced features in Studio I couldn't resist. Super glad I did, but the free version is still amazing!

[@blakegirouxphotography]

I'm starting on the free version and I honestly can say it's more than I need so far. I'm so happy they offer it. Definitely creates a good client base and yeah I will be upgrading once I can support myself with video and photo work. It's just perfect for my needs

[@msaadi132]

I edit on premiere, i tried to switch to davinci but It was really hard

[@blakegirouxphotography]

@WsS I think if you started on one platform it's hard to switch to another. You've put more time into editing on premier so you would know more about how it works and it's various plug-ins or how to do more advanced things in there, but I feel learning the layout was harder in resolve than in premier. But I've been sticking with it because it's free which is amazing

[@msaadi132]

@@blakegirouxphotography yeah

[@WritewheelUK]

I used the free version for a couple of years alongside a prosumer (it reckoned) video editor, which later went subscription. I bought the Speed Editor with 'free' Studio included. I then dropped my old software. I probably wouldn't have paid £280 for Studio. After enlarging my C partition on my SSD, for some reason Resolve reverted to the free version. I continued working on a project, but I was shocked to see the 'watermark' appear on many parts of the video. I had no idea I used the extras so much. Studio is much better, even for a keen amateur, than the high quality free version. Whether it is worth the money depends on how much disposable you have. I paid £290 for the Speed Editor (excellent bit of kit - wouldn't be without it) and Studio. A bargain. I'd like to try the DaVinci keyboard, but the price is out of reach for me. For information: there was no problem in upgrading to Studio the second time. I downloaded it after entering the code, although I had to delete the free version first. I'm a big fan of Resolve. I had no trouble adjusting to the interface, the same problems with all changes of video editing software, and I've used a few. But I'd suggest neither is the best choice for beginners. Lots of 'How-to' videos on KZbin from very knowledgeable and helpful people like yourself, Alex. Thanks so much for your efforts.

[@annebokma4637]

You forgot to mention that studio is given free with many BMD products. I think the cheapest option is buying the speed editor. That makes it a great bargain, that is also super useful

Great video…just switching over from premiere into resolve as of last week. Still trying to wrap my head around the basics for now but it’s great to know what the upgrade features can do and if they’re worth it!

[@Tamajyn]

I've been using 12 bit ProRes 4444 and 10 bit 422HQ files in the free version for years now... it absolutely does work and works well

Adding Fusion into free versions of Resolve was a really great move by Blackmagic. Good reason to upgrade to latest if you are on an old version.

[@ModernRemade]

​I finally made the jump to Studio! Had a complex track and manually masking has been the bane of my existence 😂 Until they make you a partner (c'mon Blackmagic!) here's a little something for ya! Can't thank you enough for your hard work 🙏🏻

That's crazy amount mate

DaV Resolve is just fantastic, and must be applauded for not only the free version but the fact they haven’t went to a subscription model. If they ever did I wouldn’t buy it, but I will purchase Studio.

[@TechRealityGlasgow]

I downloaded the free version, jumped into colour grading and then found that the features I tried only worked in the paid for version... so why mess around when you can get the full version for such a great price? If you cannot afford the full version, use the free version as best you can to get your head around things, and then save up and buy the full version and then you have one incredible piece of software that just gets better with every revision!

[@Lejs]

I got started with video editing recently and somehow landed on Davinci Resolve, it was probably suggested in a video or an article. Watching this video now and having used the program a bit, I am really happy I went with Davinci! Thank you for another great video!

[@GaryCunninghamyouareenough]

It truly is awesome what the free version of Resolve can do 🤯 Excellent as always, Alex 🤟

[@unlockthepicture]

Its so amazing how Blackmagic has so many awesome features for free. I love their business model about making the software accessable, making the people learn and use the software so much so they will upgrade to paid later. I respect this rare business-model comparing to other business who make everything subscription-based.

[@Na0uta]

I've used it for years. It's one of the best option out there if you just edit video as a hobby. I think they're playing a long game here and a smart one. They're getting this software in many more hands as opposed to people pirating it. It's also safer to get it. So no bad wrap from viruses. Unless you're trying to make a real production movie, you have nearly everything you could need in the free version. If they added motion blur, it'd be the perfect free editor. I'm honestly thinking of buying it to show my appreciation of it.

[@SirMaxiimus]

Alright, you sold me! All this time, I was doing my compositing and video editing in blender, so I was rendering 3D scenes and compositing and editing them all in blender, but I think it will be better to divert my workflow instead. Looking forward to learning the program.

[@chasethebluedot]

Yep, it is free. I have been using Davinci Resolve for probably 4 years. I started with the free version, but moved onto the Studio version when I bought my first Blackmagic Design Pocket Camera 4K. Later, I bought an USRA Mini 4K Pro...and yes, they still have a free version. I have also bought a 6K version of the pocket camera, an ATEM Mini, the EVF for the URSA mini, and several different other accessories including SDI and HTML converters. And still, there is the free version. It does make you wonder how Blackmagic Design makes their money by just giving away their editing software. LOL.

I started my youtube channel with the free version and the only reason I got the studio version is it came free with a speed editor. Its quite amazing the capabilities you get with the free version that puts other expensive NLEs to shame. Also for those that are wondering, the studio version is a buy it once and forget about it, no subscription, no cost to updates, its really rare to see this kind of availability these days with every other software company is moving to subscriptions.

I say 'hey i want to try that','how do i use this tool' . I look alex up and whoop there it is and i reproduce what he did in a super short amount of time.

Not sure why i only heard about this yesterday - but damn the free version is great - I tested it out, i wish i knew about this sooner because i paid for another editor software to unlock the fps limit and render quality... at some point down the line when i get used to this editor i will defo buy the lifetime

Resolve is amazing. I switched from a pirated Premiere years ago to free software so that I am not stealing from people. I tried a lot of other software which I will not name since I do not want to sound as if I am hating it. However, only Resolve game me what I needed to replace Premiere when I was growing as an editor. Now, when I have actual serious projects to develop, I am sooner or later going to buy the premium version knowing it already gave me its money's worth a long ago.

[@HikingUtah]

My biggest complaint with the free version (which is fantastic, BTW) is that it would stop and stutter during playback. For the most part, this issue went away when I got the paid version. And, come on, under $300 for this software with free updates is an amazing deal. Adobe Premiere wants you to pay them every month!

[@theena]

Edited an entire feature film on the free version. And on a Linux system at that. Words don't do justice to how thankful I am to Black Magic for giving something this good for free. I will definitely upgrade at some point but for the time being, I don't see a need because the free version has me covered.

I had a tingle that I would like to do something I did with Sony Vegas studio... Well the cheaper sony vegas. Sounds like the free version doesn't require extra fingers from me, so it's fit glove. The free editor is to build up customer base, which also works as an advertisement, but sure it doesn't matter so much if some noob throws stuff together, because if they were about to do it, then it's better to have them on the boat too, than fishing for the pirate ship. Also they get register of names. I would have had the only paid features more clearly stated in the video. I tried to do "normal" videos, but it's not as fun.

Great video. I recently 'upgraded' my home studio set up by buying a second hand mac that had already had all the hardware upgrades done for video editing. I was going to use final cut pro but have chosen resolve instead. What I am surprised with is that it wont import 'old school' avi files. I don't know if that is due to avi files not being compatible with the mac or if it's an issue with the software itself? Thankfully it will work with my new camera but a real shame I can not edit a load of footage I shot a couple of years ago with my old one.

[@video99couk]

13:15 Now I learned something there! I didn't know there were Studio drivers for Nvidia, now I can get a good performance boost from Resolve.

@MrAlexTech Wow, the GPU is now supported with the Free version? That's great! I switched to the Studio version about 2 years ago and was amazed at how much better the experience was for me. As a gamer, I had an older CPU (i7 6700k) but upgraded my GPU every two years (2070 Super), so my GPU was much stronger and more modern than my CPU. With the Free version, I always had to create proxies and render them before I could have a smooth editing experience. I had to convert H265 to H264 with Handbrake before I could use it. But when I switched to the Studio version, my speed increased by a factor of 8 or even 10. My GPU was that much faster than my CPU, and the Studio version was utilizing it. Now I could edit without proxies, even in 4K, and use H265 directly from my cameras, resulting in a much faster workflow. It even made me rethink my decision to buy a new computer for 2 years. So, it's really great that the Free version now supports the GPU as well!

Its always a pleasure to watch your videos! I've been using the free version of DR for two years now. I consider buying the studio version and replacing my 6 year old PC. You said, that a RTX 3080Ti would be a great choice. On the other hand: a RTX 3090 is only a little more expensive and has double memory but only insignificantly more CUDA-cores. What do you think is more important: graphics memory or the amount of CUDA-Cores? My current system runs o a GTX750Ti 4GB which is quite demanding when working with 4K-footage😵‍💫

[@stevetech1949]

Good Q. I wish someone would have answered it by now. I'm no expert on the matter, but I would recommend the 3090 if you are a professional and you do a lot of editing. Otherwise, a lesser card, like the 3070, 3070, 3080 or 3080TI should suffice.

I have a love/dislike relationship with Davinci Resolve since I came across the software some years ago. When I first installed it on a somewhat older laptop, the footage was very choppy. However I saw great promise. Unfortunately could not use the software. Fast forward some years later, purchased a faster laptop with Davinci Resolve partially in mind. First time installed, the footage played with ease! A few years later, here I am again with more or less the same issue after multiple software upgrades. It takes so long for the projects to load and playback is choppy again. Can something be done about this? I'm just saying. Otherwise I still thank Blackmagic for the free software. It's just not usable unfortunately.
