> Been using Resolve for over a year and graded a documentary short with it last year. I fell head over heels for Blackmagic and we now own several Ursa mini pro g2 cameras and a few of their smaller 6Ks. We shoot on canon lenses and our entire workflow is Resolve.
> Resolve is the best color grading software in the biz, without question. Most Oscar winners each year have used Resolve for their grade. The node based workflow is a game changer.
> Fair light is the sound editing software and is built on a company they purchased that was a leader in the field. What is truly unbelievable is that you get the full version of fair light in the free version of Resolve. In fact the only thing you’ll miss in the free version is a few plugins. Last year I was doing a color grade and accidentally upgraded to free. Took me an hour to realize.
> Fusion is also very powerful for VFX and does an excellent job with a few plugins for planar tracking.
> Resolve provides a complete workflow including media management, two editors, color, sound, vfx and export. It is remarkably fast and stable. The BM folks are also super friendly and helpful. Met a few at a DP seminar in NYC end of last year.
> I’ve been trying to create awareness about how much BM is giving away and how powerful Resolve is so I’m glad to see it here.
> One last thing. Blackmagic raw is unbelievable in the latitude it gives you for heavy grades. We came over from Sony s-log2. One shoot and we were hooked. I kept pushing the footage and waiting for that Sony purple grain to appear in the darks and they stayed clean with a ton of detail. Amazing.

I do audio work and use an actually proper DAW. Fairlight is pretty crummy and audio editing in resolve is a pain. Rendering a 5 hour audio track and importing into my DAW as a wav doesn't really work either so I'll either have to chop it up with ffmpeg or just use Fairlight. So far, I've stuck with it but it's no joy.ä to use.
- mmaunder 6y agoI’ve found the opposite. Editing audio and video is the same workflow and you have two editors to choose from. They rock in my experience. When moving cuts between platforms you should play with EDLs or edit decision lists. That’s how we move between Premier and Resolve when we absolutely have to.
- enneff 6y agoI would really like to know why you quoted the full message you are responding to. What’s your rationale for doing that?
