I have to say you're THE go-to reference for anything related to the Speed Editor. Like most people I got this free with the Resolve Studio license, and it would be a paperweight without your videos. Thank you. You deserve way more subs.
Great tutorial! No doubt, I’ll personally raise your view count rewatching as I learn! I’ve watched a few different Speed Editor tutorials and I’m staying here. Well done.
Didn't know Resolve allowed adding transitions to multiple points at the same time. This one tip was incredibly valuable on it's own. Really looking for every way to speed up my editing with this program.
Hi. Im a newbie on Resolve (for iPad) and enjoy your videos a lot. I discovered that if you mark the "audio only" key on the speed editor in the cut page and add a transition (dissolve) it only puts a cross fade between the clips.
Hey dude, I just "discovered" your channel and I will stick to it because you're awesome! Clearly explained with a touch of humour, makes them fun to watch and I learn a lot from you! Keep on the good work (because I know how much work it is...). I really appreciate your teaching! Have a nice one! 😁
Hello, first I want to thank you for your incredibly useful videos, thanks to you I decided to get my speed editor and just waiting for it to arrive. I think the smooth cut is useful for example if you are editing an interview recorded over "zoom" or "Riverside fm", I edit a lot of video podcasts for my clients and they record over this type of platforms, so there are not many camera angles or B-roll, I usually hide the "uhmm" cuts by cutting to the other person reaction or by creating a split view (PIP) and cutting to that, but sometimes when people say "uhmm" to often this technique can be to overused and quite horrible to watch so the smooth cut comes in very handy.
@@CreativeVideoTips 💯 that was comedy gold! Keep up the incredible work! I learned so much about my Speed Editor thanks to you. You're the only one out there really teaching us how to use it. Everyone else just barely scratch the surface.
Hey mate love your content and your work any chance that you could please do a full video on your workflow with a specific focus on the transitions that you use l
I've just been trying out the Speed Editor with Resolve version 7.1.1 and noticed an inconsistency in how transitions can be added between the Edit page and the Cut page. Adding a transition on the Edit page now automatically slips two clips together if there is not already an overlap whereas Cut page requires both clips to overlap beforehand. This auto trim seems to happen only when using the Speed Editor add transition keys on the Edit Page, making it actually easier to use than on the Cut page!
My Speed Editor just arrived the other day and have been watching your videos to get familiar with all it can do. Your vid's dive a little deeper than other's out there; Thanks for that.
Awesome content. Sub! I assume you are making these tutorials with Davinci? If so, do you have a video on how you make them. The outlining of content to highlight is a nice affect. I currently use Camtasia for tutorials, as it has easy to use prebuilt tools. But the software itself is pretty crappy. Any way, tips on how to make tutorial with Davinci would be awesome.
Just converted from Adobe (12years) to Davinci this week. Got my speed editor in today. Your tutorials are currently BLOWING MY MIND! I honestly can't thank you enough for sharing your easily digestible knowledge! It has been overwhelming to learn a new editor, but you have made this transition so much easier! Thank you!
transition lol good one, wow 12 years I cant imagine what the change would be like. I mean I did 2-3 years with Adobe and I felt like I was considered a lifer. lol Now go get the Micro panel and every blackmagic camera lol anywho good luck on the change over boss
The cut button on the panel not matching the cut function in the program is one of the worst design decisions I think I"ve ever come across. I just ordered a speed editor to take advantage of the special they're running on Resolve Studio, and this really dampens my enthusiasm. Absurd. Great video, though! :)
Man I agree - although in their defense it matches the position and function on the cut page for transitions. I just think it should be a not symbol - something that indicates removing a transition. Thanks for watching.
Creating J/L cuts can also be done by locking tracks on the Edit page. Just lock the video track / audio track and roll or trim the other independently with the Speed Editor. A disappointing detail is, that the Speed Editor forces a transition on the locked tracks (video / audio) if the audio and video are linked (say you wanted to quickly add audio crossfades only). Only unlinking will fix this behaviour.
I had forgot to even try locking the tracks to see how it behaves. Great tip! But yeah it seems like if you want to drop audio or video only fades you kind of need to use the keyboard shortcut or mouse. Bummer on that front. (Unless unlinked which you’d need to take your hands off anyway)
I bought the editir keyboard and love it. I have a question about the F/TC key to enter timecode/frame count. I know about right-clicking on the number field to switch between TC & F, but every time I press the F/TC key to get to a specific location on a media pool clip via timecode, the number field switches to frame count, in other words, every time I press the F/TC key it defaults to frame count. I have right-clicked on the number field to change it back timecode display, but it seems to switch back to frame count. How can that be fixed?
Hi. Another great tutorial! In doing J and L edits, you talk about using Option + E. For me, that keyboard shortcut has not be set. In Keyboard Customization, what would I need to search for? I tried "select video track"; however, no suggestion popped up. 'Hope you can enlighten me. I love your channel!
Hi Keith - if you are on a PC, then I think it would be Alt + E, but for me this is set under the default Resolve Keyboard set. The command is under the menu - "trim - select nearest video edit point". You can then see what it is set to under that menu or change is with the keyboard customization window to whatever you'd like it to be. Let me know if this helps! Cheers.
Very informative. Thank you very much. One suggestion, when showing your speed editor selections, please use only one finger! Sometimes it isn't obvious which key was pressed! But all very useful! Thanks again.
About the cut key. Their keyboard design is quite good. As you can see, it is in light grey instead of black. So those three keys cut, dis and smth cut are for the same job "transitions". For me this UI design is quite clear. Grouped by color and position.
@@CreativeVideoTips this is the closest thing to a guide I’ve found and it’s a beast. documents.blackmagicdesign.com/UserManuals/Fusion9_Manual.pdf I’m told it hasn’t changed much and that’s why there’s no update. So I’m making my way through it. Keep up the good work my friend...and as a Mets fan, I won’t hold you rocking Cubs gear! Lol. Although I’m glad you’all got one! Cheers.
For example, I have several clips in the timeline. I want to move one clip to earlier in the timeline and insert it between two clips. In FCPX is easy as it basically ripples the timeline down to make space for the clip I am inserting. How do I do that in DR17? It’s there is anyway I can make it ripple down to make space for the new clip? How do this properly in DR17. Thanks.
I found your channel after being sick and surfing YT. So happy the algorithm gods brought us together 😅 I’ve binge watched lots of your videos and I love your style and completely relate to being organised and in control of the workflow. I have to share a use-case where I think the smooth cut button is the BEST button on the speed editor! I edit mostly podcasts. Often clients don’t provide or want b-roll and I’ve found using smooth cut to remove filler words, coughs, etc has made my workflow faster. What would you change the button to? Thanks for the great content. 👍
For this video, I slowed to 0.75 speed. Even so, I struggled a bit. You sped through some things I am not familiar with and although I saved the video for rewatching, I’m not sure I’ll be able to figure it out. I hope I’m wrong. These are valuable videos. Would never have figured how capable the Speed Editor can be.
At 2':50" you say DIS defaults with transition on both video and audio. Great - just what I expected. Mine only adds to either video or audio. Shft+T (alone) adds transition to both video and audio, which is annoying as it has to be on keyboard. How do I make my default Speed Editor DIS or SMTHCUT default to adding transition to both video and audio?
I'm wondering if your keyboard settings could be set differently? Go to your keyboard customization and search for "add transition". Mind is set to command/ctrol t for add transition. This is something I hadn't changed from the defaults. It could possibly also have something o do with your linked selection. Is that turned on or off by chance? Try toggling that.
@@CreativeVideoTips Thanks for those instructions. I verified KB defaults and Link Active all ok. Then by luck, doing another clean Spit and transition, it worked perfectly. I concluded my former Split was faulty as the red selection frames disappeared off the audio track as the cursor landed on the Split. Zooming into the Split I saw that my audio split was a fraction away from the video split. So the issue was my own faulty shift or roll at the split. As a novice, try as I may, I cannot fathom how to realign the two tracks, but I guess a few UA-cam searches will get me another step higher on the Davinci curve. Thanks again.
I have been downloading and following all your Davinci Resolve tips on the Speed Editor and Cut page. I finally got notice that mine is shiped and will be here tomorrow. I cannot wait. In the meanwhile - your tips on the Cut page has really made a difference for me. Now to take the next step. Keep up the good work and great tips. I really can follow your presentations and put them into practice. I do a lot of multi-camera work in developing presentations of how-to nature. I did upgrade to the ATEM Mini ISO and that is the cat's meow for getting synced recordings. It was worth the extra $$. Before I had to manually sync some cameras since they were just POV with no audio and others did have audio. Now with the ATEM Mini pro-ISO that is history. You may want to just do a tip using the recorded timeline and media pool that the ATEM Mini Pro ISO captures. It is a great starting point that allows me to really capitalize on the features of the CUT page since I cannot do a lot of control in real-time and have to rely on the recorded output of the ISO. Now I can do all my multi-views, trims and over-writes. This type of work was made for the Speed Editor and Cut page. Thanks for inspiring me.
Chris - dude you are the best. It's hearing stories like this that mean the world to me. It is so encouraging. I'm very excited for you finally getting your hands on the new tool. I would love to do a video about using sync'd iso'd cameras but I don't think I have access to one of those devices. Maybe I could use some of the cooking footage that blackmagic always does a demo with. Either way it sounds great and having that timecode all taken care of for you is going to save you so much extra effort and time! Cheers!
@@CreativeVideoTips The Speed Editor finally arrived after over 2 months of patiently waiting and watching your videos. The best part of using the new ATEM Mini Pro ISO as a one person effort and using cameras giving multiple angles is that sync'd project file. Ton's of work and time is saved. Now I can record all cameras and mic's and do it all in post processing using Resolve and Speed Editor. Before I had to worry about switching manually and demonstrating at the same time. I can create a test/demo project today using the ISO and send it to you on an SD card if you want.
Hi there - yes this is 17, but this is on the edit page side at this point in the video. The cut page offers the same stuff but is laid out differently. My guess is you are looking at the cut page. Is that possible?
When you placed the barn door transition, what would then be the quickest way to applying easing? If my clips don't have handles but I want it to automatically trim and add the transition while using the speed editor or keyboard shortcuts, what would be the best way to do so, while avoiding that prompt?
The only way I know to change the easing on a transition like barn doors would be to open the inspector to the transition tab (and mouse click) to change ease to "in & out" or whatever your taste is. After you've done this once - you can go into the edit page - right click and tell it to "create transition preset". This puts that ease into a user-saved preset. If you want to drop that on a handful of clips on the timeline just select all the clips (keyboard or mouse) right-click on your new user preset transition and tell it to "add to selected edit points and clips". It will prompt you if you don't have handles and let you know it will automatically trim for you if you let it.
Thanks for your video! A question: When I add a fade I press the "DIS" key and the speed editor automatically adds it between the two clips. I've been using it since today and I've noticed one thing: sometimes even if I press the key it doesn't add the fade! Why? when I press the button, a red signal appears briefly between the two clips as if to indicate that it cannot be inserted but if I go to the "EDIT" section, and try to insert the same fade, it inserts it without problems. Why?
Hi Samir - the red indicators are suppose to let you know there is not footage available to do the transition, you would need to trim the footage down to add it. Or shorten the duration of the transition. My guess is on the edit section it is either trimming your footage down automatically or is using a shorter transition. That's my best guess anyway. Hope this helps.
Thanks for your videos, Leaned a lot! But what not seems to work here is de command 'shift t' to put crossfades on all the audio cuts. All the rest seems to work.
One thing to check - are you selecting the edit point first? (is it highlighting neon green) - Try hitting "V" or "Shift E" (select next edit point or audio edit point) and then tap "Shift T" to drop that crossfade on. Let me know if this works for ya'
Just Awesome: Your scripting, pace, depth and editing are the pinnacle of what training videos should be. I am in China and should receive my Editors Keyboard day after tomorrow. So - I’ll have my 12.9 iPad set to Chadwick’s playlist featuring your smiling face and ball cap, sitting next to my Editors keyboard and Divince on my wide monitor and plan on a couple of sleepless days. Thanks so much for your hard work.
Thanks for all those useful tipps! Do you know if there is any way to replace those super cheesy oldsql dve transitions with the fusion transitions or even custom ones? Besides missing J- and L cut options, this is definitely the most weird fail with the speed editor...
Thank you! I sure wish there was an option - as far as I understand we are stuck to non-fusion transitions for now unless we go rogue without using the speed editor. I appreciate the question.
@@CreativeVideoTips I see, so back in the 90s, when dve-transitions where a thing, the speed editor would have been amazing the way it is. Thanks for the reply though. I just found another pretty important shortcoming / possible improvement. It's unbelievable but the speed editor is actually lacking ripple trim. It would be soooo much more efficient if they would introduce ripple trim, for example via doubble pressing trim in / trim out.
Hi Alistair, Are you referring to the 3 horizontal line key that is secondary on "snap"? If so, this one will change your interface of your viewer on the cut page when you hold it while rotating the search dial. Is this what you are curious about?
Ah. Basically that one lets you use your search dial to rotate through all the fonts on your system. Drop a title down first without the speed editor then use that held down roaring to audition different fonts. It’s part of this video if you want to see it demonstrated- ua-cam.com/video/Y46SNa3qTpc/v-deo.html
@@CreativeVideoTips thank you , I thought I was missing how to insert text with the speed editor, it’s another button that could do with a remap option which BM will offer at some point I’m sure

The only way I know to change the easing on a transition like barn doors would be to open the inspector to the transition tab (and mouse click) to change ease to "in & out" or whatever your taste is. After you've done this once - you can go into the edit page - right click and tell it to "create transition preset". This puts that ease into a user-saved preset.
If you want to drop that on a handful of clips on the timeline just select all the clips (keyboard or mouse) right-click on your new user preset transition and tell it to "add to selected edit points and clips". It will prompt you if you don't have handles and let you know it will automatically trim for you if you let it.
Thanks for your video! A question: When I add a fade I press the "DIS" key and the speed editor automatically adds it between the two clips. I've been using it since today and I've noticed one thing: sometimes even if I press the key it doesn't add the fade! Why? when I press the button, a red signal appears briefly between the two clips as if to indicate that it cannot be inserted but if I go to the "EDIT" section, and try to insert the same fade, it inserts it without problems. Why?
Hi Samir - the red indicators are suppose to let you know there is not footage available to do the transition, you would need to trim the footage down to add it. Or shorten the duration of the transition. My guess is on the edit section it is either trimming your footage down automatically or is using a shorter transition. That's my best guess anyway. Hope this helps.
The restrained giggles at 12:47 on the most wonderful eye iris transition.👁 I just can’t… 🤣
Gotta love those "legacy" type transitions that have made it in a very new and modern edit controller.
Thanks for your videos, Leaned a lot! But what not seems to work here is de command 'shift t' to put crossfades on all the audio cuts. All the rest seems to work.
One thing to check - are you selecting the edit point first? (is it highlighting neon green) - Try hitting "V" or "Shift E" (select next edit point or audio edit point) and then tap "Shift T" to drop that crossfade on. Let me know if this works for ya'
hey does the speed editor have the ability to colorize clips to sort them in the cut or edit page? like on your project?
That would be cool if it did but no. To change clip color a good way is to select a batch in the media pool - right click and choose clip color.
Good stuff Chadwick, this one will be visited again that's for sure!! Thanks
Thanks so much Martin! I very much appreciate you. Glad it’s helpful.
You are amazing with your skill of teaching. Thank you so much.
Wow, thank you! I appreciate you watching.
Just Awesome: Your scripting, pace, depth and editing are the pinnacle of what training videos should be. I am in China and should receive my Editors Keyboard day after tomorrow. So - I’ll have my 12.9 iPad set to Chadwick’s playlist featuring your smiling face and ball cap, sitting next to my Editors keyboard and Divince on my wide monitor and plan on a couple of sleepless days. Thanks so much for your hard work.
Any way to add just audio transitions with the trans button? thanks!
if it's only cross fades, then yes - but use the DIS button after you push to do "audio only"
@@CreativeVideoTips Thanks!
Great stuff! So helpful! ❤️
Great to hear - thanks for watching :)
Thanks for all those useful tipps! Do you know if there is any way to replace those super cheesy oldsql dve transitions with the fusion transitions or even custom ones? Besides missing J- and L cut options, this is definitely the most weird fail with the speed editor...
Thank you! I sure wish there was an option - as far as I understand we are stuck to non-fusion transitions for now unless we go rogue without using the speed editor. I appreciate the question.
@@CreativeVideoTips I see, so back in the 90s, when dve-transitions where a thing, the speed editor would have been amazing the way it is. Thanks for the reply though. I just found another pretty important shortcoming / possible improvement. It's unbelievable but the speed editor is actually lacking ripple trim. It would be soooo much more efficient if they would introduce ripple trim, for example via doubble pressing trim in / trim out.
Chad, what the heck is the menu button option supposed to do?
Hi Alistair, Are you referring to the 3 horizontal line key that is secondary on "snap"? If so, this one will change your interface of your viewer on the cut page when you hold it while rotating the search dial.
Is this what you are curious about?
@@CreativeVideoTips sorry I put menu it’s have been it’s the title one under the trans key?
Ah. Basically that one lets you use your search dial to rotate through all the fonts on your system. Drop a title down first without the speed editor then use that held down roaring to audition different fonts.
It’s part of this video if you want to see it demonstrated- ua-cam.com/video/Y46SNa3qTpc/v-deo.html
@@CreativeVideoTips thank you , I thought I was missing how to insert text with the speed editor, it’s another button that could do with a remap option which BM will offer at some point I’m sure
@@alistairbarclay3116 yeah right now it just changes fonts - it's a cool party trick, but not something I've used too much.
