I hope you found this useful :) Thanks for watching.
Mr Alex Tech
UPDATE! I made a slight error right at the end. You CAN put Fusion Compositions into Power Bins!! But you cannot put Fusion Clips into Power bins! My apologies!!
So are human then Alex. 😁 Thanks for another informative video.
Thank Alex. Another limitation exist. If you create another data base it doensn’t follow. Have a good day.
@@afternoonpianojazz5372 that is very true! Never thought about that.
I was thinking that as well when you said that. Thanks for clarifying 👍👍
It has to be said, but you are absolutely the best Resolve content creator on UA-cam! I like how you are just a normal guy and stayed true to yourself for all these years instead of becoming some UA-cam appropriate persona. Only thing that changed in your channel is the quality of the videos. Thank you for all the great vids!
Thank you! I really appreciate that. I am still just a dude making videos 😄 and I hope I never change!
Jason Y and MrAlexTech I always watch all the way through, top geezas
I preach power bins to SO many people interested in Resolve. Such a clutch feature with so many secret tricks to them
Yeaah and they're so easily missed too. It's strange that they're so 'hidden' by default
I remember finding out about them and they honestly are a super good feature.
@@MrAlexTech new users see Bin and assume that's where the unwanted media goes for deletion?
like what kind of secret tricks?
Heyyyy! I've been abit under the weather hence the quiet-ness on the channel. But finalllllyy starting to get back to my usual self. Made this one because it was an easy video (and remind myself how to make videos...) but also super useful for noobies. Enjoy. Hopefully back to normal service on the channel from here 🙂
Your channel is incredible. I’m trying to make the jump from Premiere to Davinci but I’ve been using Premiere for the last decade, tough to get fully comfortable with Davinci just yet. Maybe there are things about Davinci that are relatable to other editing software? Might make for a great video for folks like me who are looking to switch but are having trouble breaking the muscle memory. “In Premiere this thing here does this, but in Davinci all you have to do is this!” Something like that… I dunno. Thanks for all the amazing work!!
Hate to be that guy but there is a typo in your title. Just thought you ought to know.
@@brandonhalvorsen2185 that should have updated. I fixed it a short while after publishing. I told you I was rusyu ha!
@@ChaosMarine9118 i believe in the top left of your screen, or probably through the settings menu, you can change your keybinds to match other software, i think premiere is one of them. Here Daniel shows how to do it in a short.

I usually expect everything to be clickbait and not actually that useful, but this is actually fantastic. Immediately making use of this. Thanks!
Awesome! Hope it helps the workflow :)
Changing the File "Name" in the File for e.g. Titles, or Adjustment Clip - THANK YOU for that too - it's always these little omg moments in videos like this that make me happy. ;-)
Sir, you deserve a medal. I came for the power bins and learned two more things that I really wanted to know and didn't even know where to start searching. Thank you so much!
Power Bins might've been the first Resolve tip I learned from one of your videos... definitely something that deserved an updated video for Resolve's growing family!
Wow what a surprise! I searched how to copy the properties in one text to other texts not having the same propety values. I found the discussion on the Reddit. One way was copy and paste each field one by one. Second way is to use the "power bin". What is power bin? It's the bin which items in it shares with in other project. And it's default is disable. uh, why? I have not yet understood it. Today your video has come! 🎉
Thank you man. I legit was watching tutorials where people were just pulling stuff out of their Power Bins and I was lost lol
OH damn! I did a UI Reset because I lost my center window of the Color page and this just helped me get my Power Bins BACK!!! Thanx Alex!!! 😄😄😄
Omfg this is so helpful. Thanks. I wish I knew why YT hasn't shown me your stuff in weeks but glad it picked this one to jump to.
Oh My Freaking God!!!
That is such an awesome and handy tool Alex!!
I have been creating bins for every project, putting the same stuff in, over and over again.😭😭
Now I can just do it once and be done with it.
You Sir, are amazing. 👍👍👍😊😊
Hey man... really helpful and on point Videos. Thx
I reply to this video as its the latest. Just wanted to let you know that you can get rid of the slight phasing in the higher frequencies that happen once in a while on the voice track, by switching to linear pcm in the export settings.
Its not very noticeable - especially when having music in the background. Not even sure if you have noticed yourself but coming from an audio background i can hear it via headphones.
For example 0:05 - 0:08 if you listen closely there is some metallic phasing on the voice popping up.
I have had this issue myself and simply switching from aac to linear pcm resolved the artefacts completely.
So just wanted to provide something helpful back.
Brooo I remember a power bins video from you previously. It has saved me sooo much time. First thing I added was a like/sub effect that I was 3d keying EVERY time I wanted to use it. Instead I made it once more and added it to the power bin. Never again am I wasting time on that!
wow, im using davinci since 3 years now, never knew that was a thing, thanks.
good video as alway
I have been needing to do this for so long. Thank you. I actually have a base project I use for all my stuff and I constantly have to update the base project with new stuff. This will streamline my editing process so much.
Thank you Alex I am learning so much from you. You show everything very clearly. I have watched 3 videos from other UA-camrs today and I was still not able to get the software to do what I wanted. But with you, I was able to do it the first time. Thanks so much!
My god, the time you have just saved me. I wish I'd known this a couple of years ago! Thanks so much for this.
Good video! 👌I would be insanely happy if finally Compound Clips would work in the power bins. So far I always have to drag a title into the timeline and then drag the matching sound file from the power bins into the timeline again. It's not that bad, but if you have a lot of titles in a video and you want to underlay them with sound files, it's time-consuming.
The title lives up to its name.
Btw I was wondering where this option gone bcz before it used to be in View menu! Thnx for showing in detail how this can be helpful.👍 Saving this video In my playlist!
Superb overview of Power Bins, Alex. Thank you so much. It would be really handy for DR to allow for true folder references so that when you perform a drag and drop of folders to a Power Bin (or any bin) - underlying changes would be tracked.
I don't want to save adjustment clips, it doesn't work in my workflow. Why can't i save attributes and effects directly like in the case with premiere pro?
Every attribute that i want transform, color, effects, audio fx within one preset which i can just drag n drop over my clip and done 👍
Finding it really hard to go about this in davinci
Super ! I created a project with your tutorials of effects. Such a assle. Thanks for the tip !
Thank you for this video @MrAlexTech . This will save us a lot of time edit our video in the future.
I hate seeing 20 minnute videos that can be done in much less. That why I like Mr. Alextech.
Thanks for the tips, glad to hear you're feeling better.
Hey Mr Alex Tech... how do you get those awesome smooth zoom ins on your screen captures? Is there a plugin? Or is it a feature in Resolve?

Great video, thank you. I haven't been using powerbins yet, probably time to start since I use a lot of the same footage. Great breakdown Alex, thank you.
This is SO awesome! Thank you for this tip! This is going to be so helpful!
Thanks Alex
As always, very helpful.
I just ordered mine. Very excited. 😊
Love these topic focused videos. 👍🙏👍
Brilliant mate! I've used power bins before but your explanation was simple & quick. Cheers!
You CAN save compound clips containing only Titles in the Power Bins, I do this all the time.
So if you have an arrangement of Title clips on different tracks, you can select them, convert them to a compound clip and move it into a Power Bin.
Interesting! I can't replicate this. I just tested and it won't allow me. Hmm!
Thanx for another very helpful video, man! Aai uppresee-ate-it!
I'd love to have a "Reload Power Bin Location" option as I use one for my raw video material. I'd have to drag & drop the folder every time i want to cut something into davinci resolve as the newest files are missing. With that option, i could directly tell Davinci that it should add new files by it's own into the power bin structure which makes my life a bit easier.
One of the best time saving tips, thanks Alex ❤. Quality content as usual
HUGE TIP... Thanks Alex.....
super! you are a star Mr Alex!
I need this area to be like a file browser. For example, if I take a snapshot of a clip to make a thumbnail, it should be easy to open my thumbnail project, go to the power bin, and take the photo directly from there, rather than having to open Windows Explorer or Favorites in the Media tab. It seems that Blackmagic ignores such default ideas, as well as the idea of snapping clips in the viewer area.
Great tip! Love it. I just set up all my Power Bins!!!
Thank you
Surprised to hear you say you can't put fusion compositions in a power bin. I am a bit of a noob so I might be confused about something but whenever I make a VFX in fusion, I change the media in node to use the background instead of the timeline and then drag the clip into a power bin. I can then use that affect anywhere else I fancy by just dragging it above a clip.
It was actual a slip of the tongue which went unnoticed Doh! You can put Fusion Compositions in, however you can't put Fusion Clips into Power Bins! Argh. I'll do a pinned post!
@@MrAlexTech Phew :) Thought I was going mad. Thanks for the great content!
@@notverygoodguy Oh and thank you for the heads up! Good spot :)
Has this option (power bin) disappeared in resolve 19 update? I do not have those ...'s and searching doesn't bring up power bins either. Additionally, if I go to 'Workspace > active panel selection', Media folders is greyed out. Is it a me problem? or a free user problem? tyi
They ABSOLUTELY need to add ability to save Fusion Clips in Power bins.
Hi, I keep trying to drag my modified 'text+' box into a power bin and it just doesnt show up. I have run out of options and watched so many videos to try and resolve this. can you help?
Can we put MrAlex in a powerbin for quick reference, stupid me just hit the subscribe button instead. 😂
Alex, very helpful! Question: You set up Power Bins as pointers to your hard drive Resources folders. But if you drag an element from your timeline into Power Bins via the Inspector File tab, where is it saved by Power Bins? In your example at 5:04, you dragged 2 timeline clips into Power Bins, then created a new folder in Power Bins named Effects and dragged the two clips into the new Effects Bin. Where is that Effects Bin/Folder saved? Did Resolve put it on your hard drive in your existing Resources folder? That is unlikely so I'm thinking Power Bins objects could be anywhere and everywhere.
Thanks for this gain of time !!
How does the Adjustment clip you just made get into the Resources folder?
I get how it gets into the Power Bin, but not Resources folder. Thanks!
Hey Alex I bought a effect pack in past i moved it in power bin but it is not working in resolve 18, it shows only black screen , any fix ?
My power bins seem to always get corrupted. Showing folders withi n them i did not add. Strange
Davinci is like a suprise egg :)
Cheers, Alex 😁🙏🏻🤟
I've made power bins and have all the assets in them. However I've found new assets. How do I refresh the power bins so they know I have new files in them?
Alex do you know how to Add A video On top of another video for a UA-cam Shorts? David Diga Hernandez has cool videos like this with AI graphics etc....
Nice tutorial. Is there a way to export an ajustment clip from my power bin so I could send my effect to someone else?
When I copy a clip from anywhere and try to paste in v3 it pastes it in v1 and I have already selected v3 a red border comes around v3 still it pastes in v1. Can u pls tell me the solution for this
So you dragged a title onto the timeline, which is cool. but now try it with a video or audio file. what happens? it will create a duplicate in your regular bins (master folder). This sounds like a minor detail, but it kind of makes the whole idea of the power bin useless for many, as you have to re-organize it in your regular bins. in that case, you might as well just drag it from you OS level into the regular bins.
So in those situations where you want quick access to footage, there is not really a big advantage of the power bins, it's actually extra work, if you want to stay organized. I don't like to say it but i think adobe has got it spot on with how they implemented "productions".
OMG THANK YOU!
Thanks!!
thank you. thank you so much.
What are the chances of BMD updating power bins so they do update when you add new files to folders? That would be great, see what you can do next time you see ‘em Al 😜
Ha I know right! The functionality exists... On the media page. It just needs porting over. I'll send a strongly worded email 😆
Question: if I save a clip from a particular project, then later delete that project, is the clip still available in the power bin? (Assume that I have kept the original footage in its original folder) if so, this would be great for a year end reel
Hi Alex, I have made an intro screen that I want to use in future projects, I have turned all the clips into a compound clip and tried to store in a power bin "Computer says NO!!" can you help please how can I get this compound clip saved so I can use it on any project. Regards Rob
Thank you
I’ve been using Power Bins for a while but I’ve hit a problem since I created a projects database on an external SSD. I have two databases - one on the main drive of my MacBook and one on an external SSD. My power bins work just fine for the database on my hard drive but not for the one on the SSD. I can put an item in (I’ve tried it with adjustment clips and other things) but when I drag it out onto a timeline Resolve asks me to allow access to a file location and by default it shows the cache-clip location on my hard drive. I don’t know what drive or directory I’m supposed to select as whatever I choose I get a “file not found” error and the item from my power bin then disappears from my timeline. Anyone else had this? Is there a solution?
Newbie. Does it make sense to use a power bin like a video library. For example: Say I have a couple of thousand videos in a permanent location. Could I save the whole folder in a power bin and apply keywords, and other organizational features? If yes. Any ideas to use the power bins as video library strategy?
Nice one. BTW, the end cards didn't display for me ...
Ha thanks for the reminder. I'll be good at this UA-cam thing eventually...
Hey Alex. Really need your help. Don't know anymore where else to look for a solution. Since I upgraded to Davinci 18 when I move the playhead with my arrow keys (or my mouse) the audio won't play. So when I search for the point where the beat hits, I can't find it unless it's clearly visible in the audio waveform. Do you know any solutions for it? Awesome content btw. Love your videos! Keep it up!
I really wish they had super duper bins as well though. I just want a bin which references a directory on my pc which updates on its own please Black Magic!
Do you think it could potentially slow down Davinci if I put too many files on the power bins? I have like, over 90GB worth of stuff that I use in multiple occasions, and this could save some time
I really would love if the bins would update automatically when the content of the connected folder is updated.
I pin my most used folders for easy access but bins would be a good idea. Folders are basically bins
Since you keep your media arranged in sub-folders on your storage and drag them into the Power Bin and new files added to sub-folders don't get included, is there a way to say tell Resolve to "update powerbin contents" from said locations and thus include files that have been added in since? If not this is a must have feature for BlackMagic to incorporate. Cheers.
Great videos and thank you for making davinci seem really easy i struggled to commit due to its learning curve but after looking at your videos i feel more confident. I do have a question could i buy you sfx music or where do you get them?
Hi Alex, hope all is going well for you now as a full time youtuber.
Great video as always, just watched another one of your videos, the one that you link to and you say that you cant store fusion clips in a power bin. I have just made some text+, edited it fusion to make sure it is a fusion clip then stored it in a power bin, opened a new project and yep its there and fully usable, im using version 18 free, i look forward to your reply
all the best
sorry just seen the update lol. whats the difference between the two , Compositions and clips if both are editable in fusion
is smart bins and power bins make software heavy
how do you create a live media bin?
couldnt find the three little dots. its like it doesnt exist there.
Hi Alex, Great video - I'm looking to use some of the features (4 x enhance) that are available in 18.5, but how stable is 18.5 for production, being in mind it is only Beta2? If that's a 'No' do you know when it will be officially released?
The Power Bin holds "Short Cuts" to your files.
What is dif between smart and power bins?
I didn’t see the end cards. Did you forget to add them? 😊
I did originally 😂 but they should hopefully be there now
the main question is - how to BLOCK adding media to power bins if you just drop media to timeline while you PowerBin was selected? cos its very uncomfortable if you get smth from PowerBin, and not reSelect tab to other menu, and while editing project you drop some things to timeline, and than you will find that in your powerBin is tonns of random media that you NOT add exactly to PowerBin tab. Is it the way to avoid it? For example smth, that will ADD media to power bin, ONLY if you add it exactly to power bin tab, not just drop to project
There's no way to avoid that unfortunately. You should have to make sure to select the correct bin before adding media to the timeline.
@@MrAlexTech 😔 still clean my PoweBins every week for some random trash there((
You got a sub. Keep sharing 🫡
I am Indian
Sir please upload video fussion and colour grading
Am I missing something?? The Audiio is more than the $59. Not sure what I am doing wrong.
Oh my bad, use the code Alex70 🙂
Can I charge my phone on these power bins?
Try and let us know!
@@huyked sounds good 😂
I too would like to know... 😝😆
Good but we can't save the key frames... 🙏🌹
The big question is why these programs use the word bin to describe an important stash of media that you don't want to lose or discard. :)
Nice! Didn't know this existed. Wonder if I need 18. Still on 17. lol
You're good but they sit in a different menu. They're under 'view' at the very top to enable power bins.
@@MrAlexTech
Oh! Thank you for letting me know! I appreciate the extra work that you didn't have to. Thanks! Cheers!
I just wanted to let you know....i missed you
I'll always be a newbey & my power bin breaks I'll be pi$$ed.
I dont have power bins like you
Gotta say this, while this is a helpful topic to share information on, the author's face is on screen throughout 99% of the whole video .. either talking directly to the camera or in the video that is being used as an example. I wouldn't have remarked about it except that this is a rather common occurrence in UA-cam videos.
