This is the not-so-sexy stuff that really makes a big difference in perceived quality of videos. I've saved this one in my NLE tips to remind me to work on audio before my final render.
Fairlight plugins in Resolve are 1st class! What's also cool about Resolve is the ability to point it to an audio plugin folder and use your other faves (I have tons, being a muso). I make music videos mostly, so all my audio is mixed and mastered and imported. When I do dialogue vids tho, I rely on the Fairlight plugins (unless I mix in Ableton 1st) These native plugins are the bomb!
Dear Jay, forgive my poor English. I would like to thank you for this great tutorial. Thanks to your contribution I was able to understand how to proceed in managing the dialogues
I uploaded a video yesterday. I have just followed your tutorial today using same audio from yesterday’s video and there is big difference in quality. I need to invest in a bit of soundproofing as there is still some echo but my voice is more refined and the whole track sounds more professional. Great tutorial, thanks.
Thanks a lot for this video! Just fixed the audio problems I've been struggling with using your video. I'm still getting used to resolve, so this was very helpful!
Have I or has anyone every asked you about the solid color generator glitching when you render a project? I almost lost my dang mind the other day. After hours of searching I figured out a work around. I do not make tech videos, but I thought your audience may be able to benefit from what I found. 🤷♂️👊🏻🤪❤️
Thanks for this tutorial, man! I've been focusing more into learning the edit and color tabs, but it's great to start getting more familiar with Fairlight too! Looking forward to more audio tutorials!
Very helpful Jay. I learned a lot from this video. Wonderful job. I’m just learning about the different audio tools (e.g., compressor, EQ). This video was very helpful by explaining how the tools can help. Thanks for putting the time into the video for us.
Some of this is kind of what I was asking in the live stream yesterday so thanks! Wish I knew what all of these little knobs meant though like q factor and stuff, need to figure that out, lol. Very helpful vid!
I just subscribed because you promised a tutorial about the Fairlight compressor. The closes I could come was this video which does touch on it. I have a little feedback about your instruction style and I hope you will take it as constructive information; that's what I intend it to be. I just watched the part of this video starting at 14:55 about the de-esser. After messing with it a bit you said (15:31), "That sounds pretty good." I didn't hear any difference. I wish you and other tutorial authors would be very specific of where to look and/or listen to understand what you heard that I didn't hear. This is the only way I know of to actually understand what has changed. This is especially true in color correction tutorials. The instructor makes some changes, waves his hands around and says, "There, that's better." Still, I remain *SUBSCRIBED!*
Good point! Sometimes I forget that I've been doing this a lot longer than others, and the people watching don't necessarily hear the same thing I do. I'll keep that in mind!
Hi Jay I am a little confused. You seemed to switch on learn then play the dialogue. Should you not have played the room atmosphere for it to learn from then apply this to the dialogue or am I having a moment.
I put the playhead at the beginning of the room tone clip, but I had the audio on loop, so it played the room tone first, then looped back to the beginning.
Thank-you for this helpful tutorial. I found it much better than other tutorials since I understood the process better and it had great content for the length. One question I have is, just say I go through the whole process of editing a track in the manner you show, but there is one small section of that track which has a mouth saliva sound? This is a video with a person speaking not a voiceover. How would you fix this small section?
The most professional way to do it is to do an ADR (automated dialogue replacement), but there are also audio plugins that could help. Personally I use Izotopes RX plugins.
@@JayLippman Ahh. ADR sometimes looks funny when it's a tight deadline. As for the plug-ins, are those free? If so where do you get them? I'm still learning as I go. I appreciate the help.🙂
Hey, man. I haven't actually watched this video yet (but I have eagerly added it to "Watch later"!). But I wanted to let you know that I had a big project go live last week. It was by far the most ambitious editing job I've ever done and I could NEVER have done it without your tutelage. I'm all new to Davinci Resolve, but your videos (and a few others!) showed me EVERYTHING I need to empower my creativity. THANK YOU! I'd love to show you the project. It's short and it is legitimately fun. I know you will see a lot of yourself and your techniques in it! But I'm not allowed to post it publicly. Is there someplace where I can privately send you a link? (PS - Enjoy your vacation!)
First time editing of a student film and struggling with audio - do you have a tutorial using multiple clips, particularly for a dialogue scene? I can get one clip alright thanks to your video(much appreciated!), then when it cuts back to the other person speaking (separate clips due to different angles) there is an obvious audio change. Help!
ok I just have the free version, how do I reduce the volume in a 2nd track, I am doing a let's play and added in royalty free music but it's not audio balanced, and I want it at like 40% volume.
If you want to edit the volume of an entire track, click the left side of the track (where it says the name of the track) to select it, open up the inspector, and the volume control will be there.
So you can teach Da Vinci a sound you want to edit by using a different clip? How does that work? You just put noise reduction on a clip hit manual, and then move the play head to whatever noise you want taken out. I thought it had to be in the same clip.
If you add the noise reduction plugin to the track instead of the clip, then you can have the noise on a separate clip. If you put noise reduction on the clip itself, then the noise has to be on that clip.
Hey Jay, I was using resolve today, and doing some Fairlight work editing a video conference recording. I didn't have an M1 (Master bus). Do you know why this is, as I would have expected it to be there.
@@JayLippman I read on a blog post that blackmagicdesign changed the name of the M1 bus to Bus1. Some people say they still see m1 but I don’t. Kinda odd.
What if you’re editing a feature and have A LOT of different dialogue clips? Do you have to do this process to each individual clip one at a time, or is this something you apply to an entire track in the timeline? And are you supposed to do this before any editing begins?
Newb question here. Can you use more than one effect in the Mixer section in Fairlight free version of Davinci Resolve 17? I can only use EQ or Dynamics but not at the same time. Is this a limitation of the Free version?
This is great, but I feel like I will always struggle with audio because I often can't hear the differences other people do. I can with most of what you are explaining here, but I have watched videos where they make adjustments to eliminate fan noise or something and when listening to the original clip (even with expensive headphones) I'm like, "What fan noise?!" It's not that I have significant hearing loss or anything, I just seem to not hear certain frequencies as well as others do. For me, as long as the volume is normalized and it doesn't have that tin can sound or an echo, it's fine. Knowing that other people are more critical than that is totally understandable but frustrating.
Well, you're at a bit of a disadvantage because it's hard to pick up on that stuff while watching UA-cam videos. The audio doesn't come through as well. Plus, being able to pick up on things like fan noise, reverb, etc., takes a lot of practice. I couldn't hear anything when I first started. Plus, you should be happy that you can't hear all that stuff. Once you can pick up on it, you pick up on it EVERYWHERE and it can get quite annoying lol.
@@JayLippman Hey! So I watched some videos and wanted to tell that they are awesome! Also I just want to ask you that how to shake a still image. (Only a bit of movement so it looks good)
How about leveling audio between people in like a Zoom conversation that's been recorded and may have different levels from each participant within the "remote interviewees" on the Zoom/Skype call? I am trying to balance the volume but with different audio sources within the Zoom/Skype call situation. Thoughts? Do you have a video about this sort of scenario?
There are a couple ways to do that, but the only way to do it without a 3rd party plugin is to cut up the audio, and move all the parts with one speaker to one track, and all of the clips with the other speaker to another track. Then just normalize each track separately.
Just to clarify. In the sound reduction section of the video where you did the learn. I didn't see specifically how you told it to learn that second part of the clip? Was is specifically from the playhead starting with the room noise? Would that same concept work if you had put the room noise first and just played from the beginning?
Yes and yes, but putting it at the end makes it easier to just delete it when you're done. If you put it at the beginning then everything needs to be shifted over when you delete it.
@@JayLippman that's perfect!! thank you for clarifying. Makes sense :) just didn't quite understand how it was learning the room noise. I used to use the noise print in audition, so this is a welcome trick :)
Hey man, I appreciate your videos they have been really helpful. Do you have any suggestions for how to cut audio from different takes? (Let me explain). You do a wide shot, lets say a 2 min clip of 2 people sitting down at a table. Then there are quick cuts of each person sitting down saying "hello..(cut) ." " Hey...hows it going" (cut)...and now you have 3 audio tracks. One...the wide shot...2, the one person sitting down...then 3, the third person. Then you continue to cut the scene as you would want it to play out.....my question and problem I'm having is, trying to sync up the audio to match each cut. I know how to "align audio with footage by waveform" that's all taken care of. Im new to Davinci Resolve, I'm sure there is a way around this. I couldn't imagine its as complicated as it is for me right now. Hope this wasn't too confusing thanks again for your videos.
It’s when you have 3 different audio takes Audio track 1, would be a wide shot Audio track 2, close up of his dialogue Audio track 3, close up of her dialogue All recorded with a boom mic So I sync up the boom mic audio with the clip audio with no problem. Its when I’m editing it’s kinda frustrating because I want to do a cut where one actor is talking then cut to the next actor with the bleeding of dialogue Just was curious if there was a better way to edit audio during a scene How do you do that?
Without** the bleeding from the other actor Camera is on Joe and the mic is picking up Julie and there is minor bleeding from the other actors lines and was curious the best way to edit right cuts in a scene Imagine Aaron Sorkin dialogue...and just because an actors mouth is’t on camera, you still hear the dialogue, and I want to know the best way to edit on divinci to make those cuts
If you have like 4 or 5 different audio tracks how do you get the dynamics and things for tracks 3,4,or 5? I don't see an option for those tracks. Only track 1 and 2. What is M1? A1 A2 and M1🤦🤷
If you don't see the dynamics, click on the three dots in the top right of the mixer, and click on dynamics. M1 is the master track. A1 is audio track 1, A2 is audio track 2. If your not seeing the additional tracks in the mixer, then you can expand the mixer by putting your mouse on the outside edge, clicking, and dragging.
anyone here know if there’s a workflow (i.e. order of operations) for fairlight? for example, like resolve's "image processing order of operations" for color? -colton 🤟🏼
There's actually a very flexible order of operations in Fairlight. On each track header in the mixer there's a little button with DyFxEq, which tells you in which order Dynamics, Effects (plugins), and EQ are processed. Click that button and change the order as you see fit!
Hello Jay good afternoon from a very hot South African.. I would like to ask if I can do something completely different by shrinking myself ( I shru nk myself) eg standing next to a car or a cetle. I would like to do a small comedy with my clone. Thank you. Please help. Regardless.
Maybe I'm just a complete audio noob with a rubbish headset, but I legit can't hear any difference between the track when you have the EQ on vs EQ off. The same happens when I try to EQ the audio in my own videos, I can't tell any difference unless I go to the absolute extremes with the EQ and then it just sounds awful.
It could be either one of those things. When you edit audio, you do want a decent set of headphones for sure. It will help you pick out those tiny details. But even with a good headset, it takes time and practice to really hear the subtle details of an audio signal. If you're looking for a good, budget friendly set of headphones, I suggest the AKG K240 Studios. They have been my go-to for over 25 years. I made a whole video about them: ua-cam.com/video/Xzc6U0dLGGs/v-deo.html
@@JayLippman I'll look into those, thanks. What is confusing me though is that I can never seem to get my audio sounding "professional" enough, and yet whenever I try to do EQ (following either your method or other people's) it just sounds wrong.
No matter what you're compression is, a 3db reduction is a 3db reduction. If you reduce by 3db, you make up by 3db. Or just tweak it til you like the way it sounds. Everything creative is subjective.
When you were in college did your professors play music in the class room? Since you are trying to teach us something WHY do you have music in the background? If you were riding a bike or flying a drone or even driving in a car the background music WILL be ok but NOT when you are trying to teach something. IT IS VERY DISAPPOINTING!!!!!
To me that sounds like it's more of a computer issue, if it sounds like that all the time. If it sounds like that only after editing your footage, it could be a RAM issue.
How to Normalize Your Audio for UA-cam in Davinci Resolve - ua-cam.com/video/x3vTEFQV0uo/v-deo.html
Hey do you know how to separate background music from dialogue?
@@AnxyTp Voice isolation
Useful video, thanks. One small point: general guidance on EQ is “boost wide and cut narrow”. Cutting wide makes the sound less natural.
This is the not-so-sexy stuff that really makes a big difference in perceived quality of videos. I've saved this one in my NLE tips to remind me to work on audio before my final render.

When your compressionratio is 2 to 1 wirh 3 db reduction then your make-up gain should be 1.5db not 3db
No matter what you're compression is, a 3db reduction is a 3db reduction. If you reduce by 3db, you make up by 3db. Or just tweak it til you like the way it sounds. Everything creative is subjective.
When you were in college did your professors play music in the class room? Since you are trying to teach us something WHY do you have music in the background? If you were riding a bike or flying a drone or even driving in a car the background music WILL be ok but NOT when you are trying to teach something. IT IS VERY DISAPPOINTING!!!!!
Ya it’s still laggy I need help it sounds horrible
To me that sounds like it's more of a computer issue, if it sounds like that all the time. If it sounds like that only after editing your footage, it could be a RAM issue.
