H, Daniel. I'm a 73 year-old musician, who is a video Noob, who wants to leave some legacy examples of my music to my children and grandchildren. I'd like to create a video of my performing all the parts of songs, such as the lead vocal, harmonies, lead guitar, rhythm guitar, bass, keyboard, violin, drums, banjo, etc. How would I go about blending a single audio track and a 3x3 matrix of me playing a different instrument in each widow? I guess it's called a collage or split screens. Are there any stock footage at Storyblocks that could help with that? Actually, It would be great if you could make a Noob video showing how to do that in DaVinci Resolve! Thanks!
This is by FAR the best video on you tube describing the use of this feature! Sadly I can't get Davinci 18.5 to work(see comment down below). Really enjoyed the guitar, two guitar into amp metaphor, made it way easier to understand for someone like myself that's beginning. thank you Subbed
One tip I would recommend for editors new to Fusion as well: if you right-click anywhere in your Nodes region (but not on any node) you'll see an option "Line Up All Tools To Grid" which you can click to organize your nodes automatically. Combine this with the option directly above, "Arrange Tools" and select "to Grid" and not only will your existing nodes be organized, but all future nodes will automatically snap to the grid. This is good for staying on top of your nodes, and for me, it helps to visualize my nodes more like puzzle pieces than just a smattering of effects all across a workspace.
Also if you right mouse click on the grid. Choose options and set to Orthogonal pipes. T he pipe lines travel in angled lines. If you Alt left click on a node pipe it will put a little junction box on the pipeline you can drag around to organise the pipework.
Yes yes yes! Came here from the junk that is Hiftilm Pro man I shouldnt have ignored DVRS18 last year. Plus I like knowing that when I want to donate 300 as a thank you I dont have to PAY later for the right to continue using it ♡ Also, the IDE is just fooking GORGEOUS, go BlackMagic!
Agreed. Good analogy. I had an amazing college algebra teacher in college who always used real life examples for whatever she was teaching that day. It definitely helps to break stuff down in a way you feel like you can understand.
Not just a simple explanation that doesn't talk down but also a seamless, contextually relevant, blending-in of the sponsor - salute and many thanks, this was the tutorial I needed right now \m/
Hey thanks! I really appreciate that. Love having a few great sponsors that are willing to work with a knucklehead like me but I do try to keep it about the conversation as much as possible
Appreciate everything you're doing Daniel. Been checking out your work since Filmora. I've switched to Resolve myself. Looking forward to beating film student kid's ass with it. ;-) She's using the Adobe. hehehe Fellow pretending to be musician too. Love the guitar>effects>amplifier analogy. I understood the way Fusion works right away.
I've seen many great effects tutorials for fusion but, they were advanced instruction. Your "dumbed down" explanation is so much easier to follow that I'm now more confident in trying some of those effects. Thank you for this.
As a certified NOOB, this really helped me understand the FUSION page and tools a little better. Thx Daniel. Your videos are very cool, concise and well thought out as a teacher. I appreciate it and love your channel.
I've been watching your DaVinchi and TH-cam Videos and I just want to say that you have a great understanding of what you say and how you say it. Lots of the tutorials I see, people tend to assume that the audience understands the basic language of what's being explained. But you are very aware of what you're saying and will even stop to explain things that may seem "basic" to others. Personally, I think that takes a lot of time and thought to try and think of what may confuse viewers, so thank you for that.
Finally, an explanation and demonstration of the basic functions of fusion that was easy to follow and made sense. You taught me Filmora, and I hope to see more Noob video spots (succinct and informative) about Resolve and more detailed tutorials on the software as time goes on. You are a wonderful teacher!
You are making understanding fusion and Davinci resolve so much easier than any of the 100's of how to videos I have watched. Thumbs up and a sub, please keep the how to Davinci resolve videos coming
On TH-cam there are some teachers and many exhibitionists. Teachers are those whose aim is for others to understand what s/he understands. Student comprehension is the goal. Teachers want students to know what they know. Exhibitionists are those whose aim is to show what they know. The video is an exhibit to demonstrate what s/he can do. This video is truly a tutorial, because it’s creator is a teacher. Teachers are a blessing to everyone who seeks to learn. Thank you for wanting others to know what you know.
Once again, you’ve outdone yourself as a Davinci Instructor! I have my iPad in front of me watching your videos and following along working on Davinci at the same time. Without your awesome ways of explaining things clearly, precisely, with no BS, I’m learning zillions times faster than any other videos I’ve found! Keep em coming! Thanks from GA!
I’m a musician/videographer and just learning DAVINCI Resolve and I was happy to find this video. The video is spot on. Easily understood with demos. Really enjoy your videos. THANK YOU!!❤
Now this is gonna get more fun. Also funny enough, 0:06 the best OG Fusion YT channel on YT is called Pirates of Confusion haha. Also, the guitar amp analogy was great for beginners to understand, I personally used the basic plumbing pipeline analogy while learning it.
NODES in general have confused my feeble minds since starting to use DaVinci a few months ago. This video by using the guitar illustration has opened my eyes. Thanks sooooo much. Cheers -- Dan.
Sir, you are a fantastic teacher. The guitar example did the trick for me! NOW, I have my first clue about fusion 😎. Thank you so much for investing your time in this.
This video right here is an absolute gem. These kinda things get really intimidating when you have no idea what you're looking at. I was so intimidated by this page and lost in the app for a while now, but you just explained how it works perfectly. Now I understand the fundamentals of the fusion page enough to be able to start learning smaller details on my own. Thank you very much!
So much HELP this has been. I have watched at least a dozen other Fusion Learning tutorials and NONE have given me the insite into how it works. Your video on the other hand was AWESOME. I now now understand how Nodes work, just have to figure out what each type does. Now I have made 2 new Fancy end credits for my videos that are just awesome. Thanks again I will be watching more of your videos soon.
A really great job of making this very clear and showing me how I can use it even though I am probably through there a long infusion then some other people are looking at this. I wish I had seen it sooner because you did such a clear job of show me what I can do with it.
As a guitarist myself this explanation totally made sense. I am just starting to learn fusion, but this definitely helped me visualise it and I think I have a better understanding now of what those nodes are and how to connect them in the chain. Now just play around and mess things up.
Signal chain, baby! That’s the only way it makes sense for me too. If this video was helpful, this is sort of a follow up that’ll show you how to do a little bit more using the Fusion page now that you understand the workflow -> th-cam.com/users/liveV_hm-kCWWwY?si=AiXFAl6FKrB2EEaF
Fairlight was the big opaque box for me that I had to work at, and thank you so much for cracking that nut. Fusion is a great visual way of putting effects in (so much easier than Filmora). Still got a steep learning curve on it, but I've been having fun. Same sort of approach as Unreal Engine with game design. Thanks again for all you are doing to walk us Resolve Noobs through the learning process!
@@Daniel_Batal Not yet. I had to jog my memory as to what they are (I know you covered them in your Fairlight video, but some days I'm a bear of small brain). They seem to be very useful to find where problems lie - I shall have to remember to have a play around with them.
@Daniel Batal I recently swapped to Davinci Resolve from Vegas, and the thing that sold it was vst 3 support in both edit and Fairlight. My Studio One Fat Channel completely supported.
I've been wanting to learn fusion for a while now, but all the tutorials are so complex, and the creators speak and click on things so fast its hard to keep up. As soon as you made the reference to the guitar it all made so much sense! Thank you for this amazing and unique method to learn this. I truly appreciate it! It gives old fools like me hope.. lol
Man, I’m so glad that made sense. I’m a total noob and just trying to pass along what I see in my journey. This is sort of the ‘sequel’ for anyone who enjoyed this video-> th-cam.com/users/liveV_hm-kCWWwY?si=zASLZc0j-9QxmFJx
Thanks for the tutorial! I just started using this software for my channel, and I'm still quite a noob at it :') I will for sure try and use these tips on my next documentary:)
The Fusion page has been soo intimidating to me ever since I started using Davinci. Thank you for helping me be more confident with it. It’s quite motivating
It's funny to see Fusion being referred to as a "page" in Davinci 🤣. It was (and in a way still is) a full fledged compositing package that once even rivaled (the back then) industry leading Shake. It was used extensively in many AAA hollywood blockbusters. Once you get the hang of the node based approach, new universes open up!
I just started using Davinci from Premiere Pro. What a difference!! And I do have to say that you are a great teacher for us "NOOBS"! Thank you because you simplify things to make it easier to get started.
Been watching your videos since your Filmora days and you are absolutely the best TEACHER out there. Your scripting, pace, dialog, clear diction all come together to make fantastic instructional videos. However, I think this “simple” explainatoin of how to do a couple of simple things in Resolve just convinced me to stick with FCPX for now. I’ll keep watching your videos because I love to learn from a master.
Awesome tutorial, I'm new to DR and knew nothing about fusion. Your teaching pace is easy to understand. Now this "confusion" makes a whole lot of sense. Thank much!
I have made the switch to Davinci from FCP. But I have really struggled to get going with it. Today, this tutorial flipped a switch and now I am finally seeing the "light". Thank you.
I have not finished this tutorial yet, but so far, I think it’s one of the best and clearest explanations I’ve seen. I’ve been away from fusion for quite awhile and just needed some refreshers. This is really great my compliments and thank you
I did music tech at college, and i'm particuarly thankful that my tutor drilled the idea of signal flow/chain as a means to interpret the flow of editing in many other facets of creative work. I've used these metaphors similarly to explain to other photographer/videographer friends when I seriously started taking up this creative avenue. Stangely so, audio and video go very much hand in hand; who would have thought!
DUDE! You're freaking awesome. This was massively helpful. The simplicity mixed with the guitar analogy..... It all worked and now I'm gonna start messing with that section where when I saw other videos go to the fusion page I was always like, "well, I guess I'm not doing that one..." Thank you Daniel. You have a new sub.
Hey Daniel I am watching you after an year I quit editing due to my college life i just wanted to see how much you have grown I miss my childhood so much. I watched you editing tips followed them and got good remarks from my friends,dad and other relatives missed those days
Normally I don't comment on any videos, but you deserve the comment. The work you do is incredible. Your explanation is better than many teachers at school. Thank you very much for all this information. Thanks to you, I overcome the complexity of DaVinci. Greetings from Turkey Daniel !
As a guitar player myself you literally made this the most easy to understand video I could have possibly found by using the guitar to amp analogy. Thanks for the tips!
You are a Genius!! I am a Guitarist just Like you and also learning Video Editing this video connected my 2 passions and helped me a lot Thanks!!!!!!Man
Nice intro to Fusion. I was working with it today before I watched this video, and almost had no idea what did what. This video helped me quite a bit. You are the second creator I have heard recommend Story Blocks.
Dude, the way you explain how do things is so easy to understand. Im new to Resolve and editing in general. I have watched heaps of tutorials and end up banging my head on the desk in frustration. Great job. Liked and subscribed. Look forward to watching all your tutorials.
Thanks, Brett. I've got a Shorts series that drops one new Davinci Resolve tip or technique every day. That's where most of my focus has been on this topic recently. th-cam.com/play/PLsVDy3wGxbDA-pvAT1eH2_khEe0lDe90e.html
Daniel! OMFG! THANK YOU!!! Looks like the end of Filmora for me, finally! As a guitarist myself, this made sooo much sense, if I can figure out a 15 pedal combo, I can do Fusion easy!!
I've been a casual user of Davinci for a bit more than a year now and i never knew what those little dots meant under each fusion node! I like your casual approach to your tutorials. Consider me subscribed!
I used to watch you when I was 11 and making videos about Filmora and you really boosted up my editing skills. Then you stopped and I unsubscribed but I was wrong. Here I am 2 years later using DaVinci Resolve 18 not having any clue about how Fusion works. I went into your channel to see your project and then I noticed some really important DaVinci Resolve Tutorials that I knew they were gonna be understandable and simple-made. Also the guitar trick is really relatable cause I also play electric guitar. Definitely Subscribing back again. Thank you Daniel!
Finally diving into Fusion and after a bunch of videos this is by far the most easy to understand, watch, and just generally listen to. The guitar analogy is spot on. Thank you so much for all the efforts put into this stellar video! ❤
I'm super new to Davinci. I've been a super armature creator using Pinnacle and I'm so tired of it crashing and a number of other issues. Your videos are greatly helping me out because I have a pretty good idea of what I want to do but can't figure out easily in Davinci how to make it happen. So THANKS!!!! Also, always checking out what someone else is doing helps all of us learn just another creative way to do something. Eventually I'll dabble with more complicated stuff. But for now, I'll keep it simple and make what I can the best I can make it. THANKS AGAIN!!!!
Awesome man!!!! Because of all your shorts you twisted my arm into getting DaVinci Resove. Hahha! Keep this stuff coming brother! Thanks so much for you being you. The edit ROCKSTAR!!!
Daniel, this is great. I have watched a number of fusion tutorials. Learned a lot--mostly to stay away from the Fusion Page. After watching this, I want to go in there and use it!!
Man, love hearing that! When you get through this one, this is a great follow up to try a little bit more in Fusion---> th-cam.com/users/liveV_hm-kCWWwY?si=_T7BVScdwmCyuvpj
Dude! As a musician, and other 4 letter w3rdz too, this helped a bunch to remove the mystery of Fusion. I may not be a Victor Wooten by the end, but I'll be a little closer to being a Flea. Thanks!
Thank you for always explaining things in a much much easy and with the practical approach. Most of the tutorials on TH-cam had me snoring or confused too much. Love you my friend.
I not a musician at all, but your analogies made it killer clear, you earned a sub. I'm new to Editing software and looking for all the newbie instruction I can find. Great stuff!!!
What an amazing tutorial. I am starting out with Davinci Resolve and wanted to learn nodes and fusion and boom, this dude got them for me all in one video. Keep it up
Very important! Always do this. Go to the medipage and right click your media and select generate proxy media. Fuson page eats up a lot of resources and lags own the entire software. So make sure you do this. One more thing you can do is click on the playback option on the very top, go to timeline proxy resolution, and set it to quarter resolution. Now the video will get blurry, but it will export in the orignal quality.
Simple, which is important. In detail. No philosophy. Born to be a professor. Thanks for such a simple approach to explaining. I appreciate and respect. Let's leave philosophy for others. Shorts are the right choice for any theme. Short and clear. NOOBS Shorts top. I learned the most from Shorts. All the best in your future work. It's best with a guitar. Long live rock and roll.😊👍
Forest Gump: "Mama always had a way of explaining things so I could understand them." This is how I feel while watching this tutorial haha. Thanks for making things easy to understand, Daniel.
Well done brother. I just downloaded Davinci today and was messing around with it. So many buttons and had no idea where to start. Ive been using filmora for the past 2yrs, but it was becoming too basic for me. I appreciate this tutorial. Makes total sense!
Thank you! I really hope that makes sense for not just musicians. I hope enough people have seen a guitar player in their lifetime that the idea of a ‘signal chain’ can simplify learning Fusion.
If you've got any experience with Lighting & Materials in Blender or Maya (or really any 3D software) it's really helpful to think of Fusion like that. It started to click for me when I realized it and Natron operate on the same basic principle as Nodes in Maya.
I don't know who you are, but I'm gonna give Davinci Resolve a shot, and I just finished your beginner, starter video. It was great, and this one is great too. This type of content makes me believe I can learn this stuff! Thank you!
Being a composer myself, the music examples helped a TON! Thank you SO MUCH! Switching to DaVinci Resolve has been quite the undertaking, so this helped wrapped my head around Fusion that much more. 🤘🤘
I've seen many vids trying to explain fusion but as soon as you brought music into it, I'm finally understanding it! Being a guitarist myself, seeing nodes as a pedal board, just makes sense! New subscriber here pal!! 🤘🤘🖤☠️🖤☠️
I love that this analogy worked with both musicians like you and even folks who don't play guitar. Once you understand that it's just a signal chain, it suddenly becomes soooo much clearer.
Thank you so much for your simple straightforward explanations. I am sooo new to DaVinci Resolve, and you make me feel like I can actually master it one step at a time.
Just searched for “making a collab video on TH-cam” And came across a video of yours on the subject from 4 years ago. I decided to go to your channel and look at your most recent video and I just gotta say that you’ve dialed it in amazingly well my man 👏👏👏 Keep being awesome! ✌️😎
Wow! Flashback right there! Most people don’t know this channel started with music as an integral motivation, hit it in the middle and came back to it recently. What a ride ❤️

More than happy with Envato Elements instead, but great tutorial about fusion thanks sir
For animated Arrow is there a way to add a sound effect infusion?

You are so welcome! Thanks for the kind words ☮️
Great video my friend! Congrats on the sponsorship deal. Double props for the use of “perfect shot“.
I might owe you trademark royalties.
I just started using Davinci from Premiere Pro. What a difference!! And I do have to say that you are a great teacher for us "NOOBS"! Thank you because you simplify things to make it easier to get started.
👊😎☮️
Been watching your videos since your Filmora days and you are absolutely the best TEACHER out there. Your scripting, pace, dialog, clear diction all come together to make fantastic instructional videos. However, I think this “simple” explainatoin of how to do a couple of simple things in Resolve just convinced me to stick with FCPX for now. I’ll keep watching your videos because I love to learn from a master.
Stick with what works for you
Awesome tutorial, I'm new to DR and knew nothing about fusion. Your teaching pace is easy to understand. Now this "confusion" makes a whole lot of sense. Thank much!
Happy that helped!
I have made the switch to Davinci from FCP. But I have really struggled to get going with it. Today, this tutorial flipped a switch and now I am finally seeing the "light". Thank you.
That’s awesome! Glad this helped
I have not finished this tutorial yet, but so far, I think it’s one of the best and clearest explanations I’ve seen. I’ve been away from fusion for quite awhile and just needed some refreshers. This is really great my compliments and thank you
Glad this was helpful!
I did music tech at college, and i'm particuarly thankful that my tutor drilled the idea of signal flow/chain as a means to interpret the flow of editing in many other facets of creative work.
I've used these metaphors similarly to explain to other photographer/videographer friends when I seriously started taking up this creative avenue.
Stangely so, audio and video go very much hand in hand; who would have thought!
Amen.
I use sooo much of my experience working in recording studios for decades (long before digital) to help me understand video production.
DUDE! You're freaking awesome. This was massively helpful. The simplicity mixed with the guitar analogy..... It all worked and now I'm gonna start messing with that section where when I saw other videos go to the fusion page I was always like, "well, I guess I'm not doing that one..." Thank you Daniel. You have a new sub.
Glad that was helpful! This video is sort of “step 2” for Fusion-> th-cam.com/users/liveV_hm-kCWWwY?si=1lwYKJs075Rkwxdj
Hey Daniel I am watching you after an year I quit editing due to my college life i just wanted to see how much you have grown I miss my childhood so much. I watched you editing tips followed them and got good remarks from my friends,dad and other relatives missed those days
Nice!
Normally I don't comment on any videos, but you deserve the comment. The work you do is incredible. Your explanation is better than many teachers at school. Thank you very much for all this information. Thanks to you, I overcome the complexity of DaVinci. Greetings from Turkey Daniel !
Hey thanks! I really appreciate the kind words!
@@Daniel_Batal You deserve all the kind words believe me.I greatly respect your aim to teach people something.
As a guitar player myself you literally made this the most easy to understand video I could have possibly found by using the guitar to amp analogy. Thanks for the tips!
Glad it helped!
Thanks! You encouraged me to spend more time with the (Con)fusion page
Wonderful!
You are a Genius!! I am a Guitarist just Like you and also learning Video Editing this video connected my 2 passions and helped me a lot Thanks!!!!!!Man
Rock on!
Nice intro to Fusion. I was working with it today before I watched this video, and almost had no idea what did what. This video helped me quite a bit. You are the second creator I have heard recommend Story Blocks.
Fusion is a beast once you get a handle on it.
And Storyblocks now has DaVincie Reaolve templates & transitions.
I like the combo
Dude, the way you explain how do things is so easy to understand. Im new to Resolve and editing in general. I have watched heaps of tutorials and end up banging my head on the desk in frustration. Great job. Liked and subscribed. Look forward to watching all your tutorials.
Thanks, Brett. I've got a Shorts series that drops one new Davinci Resolve tip or technique every day. That's where most of my focus has been on this topic recently. th-cam.com/play/PLsVDy3wGxbDA-pvAT1eH2_khEe0lDe90e.html
The guitar analogy is a great way to understand the basics of Fusion. Thanks!
My pleasure!
Great job breaking this down in under 20 minutes, clear and concise, I upvoted
Awesome, thank you!
Daniel! OMFG! THANK YOU!!! Looks like the end of Filmora for me, finally! As a guitarist myself, this made sooo much sense, if I can figure out a 15 pedal combo, I can do Fusion easy!!
Ha! Yes!!
I've been a casual user of Davinci for a bit more than a year now and i never knew what those little dots meant under each fusion node! I like your casual approach to your tutorials. Consider me subscribed!
Welcome aboard!
Yeah, Resolve is feature rich and I always seem to be finding something I didn't know existed the day before.
I used to watch you when I was 11 and making videos about Filmora and you really boosted up my editing skills. Then you stopped and I unsubscribed but I was wrong. Here I am 2 years later using DaVinci Resolve 18 not having any clue about how Fusion works. I went into your channel to see your project and then I noticed some really important DaVinci Resolve Tutorials that I knew they were gonna be understandable and simple-made. Also the guitar trick is really relatable cause I also play electric guitar. Definitely Subscribing back again. Thank you Daniel!
Welcome back!
Thank you. I have been using Fusion for a few yrs, and although I have the basics sorted. That was brilliant. Keep going with this style.
Thanks, will do!
I really like your thumbnails-they're so creative and eye-catching!
Thanks!
Finally diving into Fusion and after a bunch of videos this is by far the most easy to understand, watch, and just generally listen to. The guitar analogy is spot on. Thank you so much for all the efforts put into this stellar video! ❤
Sweet! Glad that helped.
If you’re looking for the next place to go, try this one-> th-cam.com/users/liveV_hm-kCWWwY?si=Grxu5Kg69v1e3jzN
Explaining it like a guitar is the perfect way to correlate and explain this, it makes so much more sense now, thank you
Glad that made sense.
I'm super new to Davinci. I've been a super armature creator using Pinnacle and I'm so tired of it crashing and a number of other issues. Your videos are greatly helping me out because I have a pretty good idea of what I want to do but can't figure out easily in Davinci how to make it happen. So THANKS!!!! Also, always checking out what someone else is doing helps all of us learn just another creative way to do something. Eventually I'll dabble with more complicated stuff. But for now, I'll keep it simple and make what I can the best I can make it. THANKS AGAIN!!!!
Right on, John!
Glad these videos have been helpful!
as a (kind of) guitarist, the FX pedal analogy sealed the deal for me. Really well explained dude.
Awesome! Glad that made sense
Awesome man!!!! Because of all your shorts you twisted my arm into getting DaVinci Resove. Hahha! Keep this stuff coming brother! Thanks so much for you being you. The edit ROCKSTAR!!!
You bet! Glad this was helpful.
Daniel, this is great. I have watched a number of fusion tutorials. Learned a lot--mostly to stay away from the Fusion Page. After watching this, I want to go in there and use it!!
Man, love hearing that! When you get through this one, this is a great follow up to try a little bit more in Fusion---> th-cam.com/users/liveV_hm-kCWWwY?si=_T7BVScdwmCyuvpj
Dude! As a musician, and other 4 letter w3rdz too, this helped a bunch to remove the mystery of Fusion. I may not be a Victor Wooten by the end, but I'll be a little closer to being a Flea. Thanks!
Ha!
Glad this made sense for you!
Thank you for always explaining things in a much much easy and with the practical approach. Most of the tutorials on TH-cam had me snoring or confused too much. Love you my friend.
You're very welcome!
Thanka Daniel. Concise and to the point. As a guitarist I appreciated explaining the pipline like you did. Fusion is a signal chain.
Absolutely
I not a musician at all, but your analogies made it killer clear, you earned a sub. I'm new to Editing software and looking for all the newbie instruction I can find. Great stuff!!!
Oh sweet! I was hoping it would make sense to more than just guitar geeks like me
What an amazing tutorial. I am starting out with Davinci Resolve and wanted to learn nodes and fusion and boom, this dude got them for me all in one video. Keep it up
Glad I could help!
You have a great approach to your tutorials, Daniel.
I appreciate that!
I can't find the Tube Screamer node! Cheers Daniel!!
😅
You demystified that really well. Or maybe because I am also a musician it worked for me. Either way, nice job of teaching.
Thanks. 🙏
Great explanation ❤ easy and quick 😊 Namaste 🙏 from Bharat 🇮🇳
Thanks!
You are my first teacher who resolved DaVinci (Con)Fusion for me. Thanks trillion times.
Happy to help!
I really 'got' the analogy of the guitar plugging into the amp, what a brilliant call out. I won't be able to unlearn that. fantastic!
Glad that was helpful!
Very important!
Always do this. Go to the medipage and right click your media and select generate proxy media. Fuson page eats up a lot of resources and lags own the entire software. So make sure you do this. One more thing you can do is click on the playback option on the very top, go to timeline proxy resolution, and set it to quarter resolution. Now the video will get blurry, but it will export in the orignal quality.
ignre the spelling mistakes
Simple, which is important. In detail. No philosophy. Born to be a professor. Thanks for such a simple approach to explaining. I appreciate and respect. Let's leave philosophy for others. Shorts are the right choice for any theme. Short and clear. NOOBS Shorts top. I learned the most from Shorts. All the best in your future work. It's best with a guitar. Long live rock and roll.😊👍
Amen!
Forest Gump: "Mama always had a way of explaining things so I could understand them."
This is how I feel while watching this tutorial haha. Thanks for making things easy to understand, Daniel.
Ha! Thanks, Vincent. Glad this was helpful
Well done brother. I just downloaded Davinci today and was messing around with it. So many buttons and had no idea where to start. Ive been using filmora for the past 2yrs, but it was becoming too basic for me. I appreciate this tutorial. Makes total sense!
I’ve been loving Resolve
thank you ive been using resolve for a week now and just had no idea how to deal with the fusion page this video helps explain things a lot!
Glad it helped!
The guitar pedals analogy is brilliant. Makes so much sense of a pretty challenging (if not to say mystifying) feature of DaVinci. Thanks!
Thank you!
I really hope that makes sense for not just musicians.
I hope enough people have seen a guitar player in their lifetime that the idea of a ‘signal chain’ can simplify learning Fusion.
One of the best guides for newish people. Keep up the great quality videos! Helped alot!
Thanks, will do!
Finally, thanks dude, love the music terminology. Finally I understand it all. Thanks a lot
I don’t know if I’ll ever understand all of Fusion but I’m working on it!
If you've got any experience with Lighting & Materials in Blender or Maya (or really any 3D software) it's really helpful to think of Fusion like that. It started to click for me when I realized it and Natron operate on the same basic principle as Nodes in Maya.
I don't know who you are, but I'm gonna give Davinci Resolve a shot, and I just finished your beginner, starter video. It was great, and this one is great too. This type of content makes me believe I can learn this stuff! Thank you!
Right on! You can definitely do it 👊😎☮️
Finally some clarity regarding the logic of Fusion. Thank you.
☮️
So glad I've found you bud. Your pacing and accessible language is perfect and engaging. Keep it up.
Thanks! Will do
Being a composer myself, the music examples helped a TON! Thank you SO MUCH! Switching to DaVinci Resolve has been quite the undertaking, so this helped wrapped my head around Fusion that much more. 🤘🤘
Great to hear!
I've seen many vids trying to explain fusion but as soon as you brought music into it, I'm finally understanding it! Being a guitarist myself, seeing nodes as a pedal board, just makes sense! New subscriber here pal!! 🤘🤘🖤☠️🖤☠️
I love that this analogy worked with both musicians like you and even folks who don't play guitar.
Once you understand that it's just a signal chain, it suddenly becomes soooo much clearer.
It's always a pleasure to hear Tom Araya talk about Video Editing
Coming from Zac Brown, that really means a lot 🙏❤️
You introduced me to davinci resolve and filmora, now story block. I love your tutorials man :)
Great to hear!
You're doing a great thing Sir! Thank You so much!
This is the "basics" part that makes it possible for me to start learning the basics about fusion, thank you for flattening the learning curve!
Love hearing that. Thanks for the kind words
This is by far the best tutorial i have watched on fusion.
Thank you very much! ☮️
Thank you so much for your simple straightforward explanations. I am sooo new to DaVinci Resolve, and you make me feel like I can actually master it one step at a time.
👊😎
Just searched for “making a collab video on TH-cam” And came across a video of yours on the subject from 4 years ago. I decided to go to your channel and look at your most recent video and I just gotta say that you’ve dialed it in amazingly well my man
👏👏👏
Keep being awesome! ✌️😎
Wow! Flashback right there!
Most people don’t know this channel started with music as an integral motivation, hit it in the middle and came back to it recently.
What a ride ❤️
