DaVinci Resolve 17 released
Black Magic Design has announced the release of DaVinci Resolve 17 public beta with over 100 new features and 200 improvements.
The Color Page now features new HDR grading tools, redesigned primary controls, AI-based magic mask and more. Fairlight updates mouse and keyboard edit selection tools so users can work faster, along with Fairlight Audio Core and FlexBus, a next-generation audio engine and busing architecture with support for 2,000 tracks. Editors get a metadata slate view with bin dividers, zoomed waveforms for audio trimming, smart reframing, a unified inspector and more. In addition, compositions created in Fusion can now be used as an effect, title or transition on the edit and cut pages.
Compositions customers create on the Fusion page can now be saved as a template and used on the edit or cut page. New animation curve modifiers can be used to automatically retime animations when customers change their duration in an edit. Audio playback with waveform display makes it easier to create precisely timed animations, there are shared markers with the edit page and more. In addition, 27 GPU accelerated Resolve FX have been added to the Fusion page, including the noise reduction and sharpening tools from the colour page. New node view bookmarks make it easy to navigate large comps, the toolbar can be customized with their favourite tools, and vertical layouts are supported in the node editor.
Node tree bookmarks let users quickly navigate to any part of the node tree in a large composition. Customisable toolbars let users quickly switch toolbars based on the current task. Vertical node tree layouts give users more room to view the spline and keyframe editors when creating animations and more.
The free version of DaVinci Resolve now includes the multi-user collaboration tools previously only available in DaVinci Resolve Studio. That means users can have multiple users all working on the same project at the same time.
