This is by far the greatest tutorial I have ever seen on UA-cam. I really mean that and the reason is, you do something no one else bothers to do. Everyone else just gives the whole "you set this to that and play around" ordeal. You however actually took the time to say "Hey here's how you find the problems and how you fix them if they're there" that EQ bit was really great man thank you
You’re welcome! Glad you found the video helpful. Check out some of my other videos, my style is very similar. I try to keep things simple for everybody. 😁 But when I went through the DaVinci Resolve audio Effects series, I did say you’ve got a play around with things to get the sound you’re looking for. 😜
I feel like there are a million tutorials on visuals, but not a lot on audio or how each tool works. You did a really great job of explaining everything. I would like to get more in depth with each of the tools because I think that a lot of videos are just recipes without too much explanation as to what each ingredient does.
So true. There are not many people that can give you straight up, master class tutorial like Jason does. Thank you Jason this really helped me out. I still have few small problems here and there but my voice sound much fuller and cleaner now.
Too much work... 1. get closer to mic and in proper position to mic type 2. declick 3. denoise 4. eq + compressor 5. deesser if you need it That's all you need. Don't waste 30 min on useless work in audio. If you record bad, it will be bad anyway. Just record it better, and you will just do some minimal fixes in 2 minutes. And if you always record in the same room, with same acoustics and same mic placement, you save all of this as a preset and just drop it on every clip. 95% of the time you will speak the same, so nothing really needs to be changed.
Your compressor settings weren’t doing anything other than increasing volume. How do I know? Look at the gain reduction meter - the compressor wasn’t kicking in. Need to bring the threshold down to trigger it.
When normalizing consider using the true peak versus sampled. (Drop down choice). True peak is likely the better Choice unless there is unnatural spikes.
Thank you for this, I have used DaVinci on and off for years and always struggled to replicate the audio adjustments I would make in Premiere. Your explanations and understanding are so helpful and I am so grateful for how thorough this is! 🙌
You can do everything you need right in Fairlight. It’s pretty powerful and is a great tool. I’ve got lots of fairlight videos if you’re interested. 😜👍
The moment you kneel on the floor and thank god that there are actually tutorials with value. A bloke explaining why things are doing what they are doing, after you were about to surrender and throw out your laptop, as ALL the other intro heavy/i am this and that/a lot of people have been asking me/just look at me blokes just explain the tip of the ice berg without knowing ANY background. And they would ask you to subscribe anyway within the first 3 seconds, while this dude makes me subscribe mid way by myself. Awesome.
sound is so key to video - i keep forgetting...thx for this video...i am in the process of making better videos - leveling up so this is awesome to watch and add on...mighty thX...
Yes! Audio is super important! I’m talking about audio tomorrow at ResolveCon, check it out tomorrow if you can! It’s live streamed on Casey Faris UA-cam channel. 😜😁👍
Hi Jason, all of these reverb presets are a bit too much. What reverb settings do you recommend for a singing voice? I need a more subtle setting than the ones offered by the presets.
Hi! Without knowing what the vocal sounds like and what effect you are going for, what I would do is to choose one of the presets, then go to the wet/dry mix dial, turn it to zero and slowly turn it up. That way just a little of the effect is mixed in and you should be able to make a nice balance. It's rare that you would use any of the presets at full blast. Hope that works out!
Thank you so much for sharing, very useful! However, why the audio of this video is far better than the edited audio? I expected you can tune the edited audio to the same level. Any suggestion?
Hi, thanks for watching! It all depends on how you edit the audio. I have a preset I use for all of my UA-cam videos but in this video I just did all of the editing on the fly. It may not match exactly what I use on a regular basis. 😁👍
Awesome tutorial fam, Though I'm curious about how could I save my work as a preset to be able to automatically add it to my other bits of audio without the need of repeating the same process multiple times, Thanks!
I know this is 2 years old, but I have to say, after watching so many other DaVinci audio tutorials I get super excited to try out new things only to find the sound still sounds blown out on YT. After watching this I realise what I have been doing wrong. Thank you for explaining things and showing things the way you do. I truly am very excited to put these new tricks to work. Please keep these wonderful vids up you are now my go to audio guy. Cheers Jason!
Thank you! I just used this on my irish cream taste test vid and it works a charm!! More practice needed but it really helped improve the sound straight outta my old phone!
This is a truly amazing tutorial. This really helped making my Boya M1 lav mic sound much better. It was absolute trash before I appliled these steps! Thank you very much for making this.
Thanks for checking out the video! I forget exactly what I did here, but I'm thinking the louder volume was because of setting audio levels properly. But I'd have to watch the video again to refresh my memory. 😜
Put the mic on a mic stand just out of frame, record peaks at +/- -9dB, use some ('sound' blankets) if your room has a lot of reflection. It will save so much work in post. A little Eq and compression should get you halve way there. If you listen to something that is louder; you perceive it as better... If you compare, get things equally loud! Happy mixing!
Thank you so much for this. After posting a couple of videos I was still not happy with my audio, now I know I need to get my microphone closer, but you, are the reason my audio is going to look great on the next video. Much appreciated.
Hi, I have an issue with my mic in Davinci. I have a crackle on it in there but not in any other app I use a mike. I also would like to see a video on how I link Voicemeeter Potato. Can you help me.
Generally I try to set my speaking audio around -8 DB. When the video is done, I check the loudness and make sure the LUFS are a little below -14 LUFS which is what UA-cam will allow.
very usefull tips in this video for me, really helps to brighten and sweeten up my voice in playback. I find it so funny to learn how much a little tweaking can make a difference so thanks a lot!
Hey bud, great video helped a ton. Got a small question though. You mentioned saving a pre-set for the eq but didn't show it. My question is how do you save it?
Not sure how i've never found you earlier, i've been eating up all the Davinci Resolve content i can get my hands on... This was SUCH a clear, concise, useful, well presented video i'm ashamed i didn't know about you sooner. Def subbed now! Plz keep making these kinds of videos!
@@JasonYadlovski you have no idea how useful this video was, i shot a wedding and they had no way to plug into the PA system to record the vows so i had to roll with a simple wireless mic on the groom alone (which inadvertently got moved to the inside of his coat before the ceremony). This video basically saved my entire audio recording; i was able to get it to sound good despite the original file sounding like it was recorded through a chipmunks anus
Great explanations! Don't know if you noticed this, but your compression wasn't doing anything. That's why nobody heard any difference. You can tell by the gain reduction meters, They weren't moving at all during the compression part of your explanation.
This video is kind of backwards. I was taught that you are supposed to gate your noise floor before you compress your audio and that EQ is supposed to be done before applying dynamics. That jives with the order in which Fairlight displays the EQ and Dynamics options. IIRC, it tends to distort audio a bit without realizing it if those things are handled out of order. Most of this video stems from the fact that automatic audio normalization is a fundamentally broken tool. The standard automatic audio normalization tool normalizes the audio across a whole track by picking the max peak and setting the boost to a static level that never exceeds that peak, which almost always produces undesirable results. The sample track used in the video demonstrates the problem: There is one brief moment of loudness compared to the rest of the track and so that becomes the max peak while the vast majority of the rest of the track falls well below the target dB level. Compression is the hack that most people then use to compensate but compression actually distorts the original sound. Everyone is in the market for a better audio normalizer that auto-ducks the 1-2 peaks that happen sporadically across a very large sample window (e.g. 15-30 seconds), allowing for better overall normalization of a track. A tool like that would probably be the single greatest improvement to audio normalization in the last 30 years and wouldn't be hard for NLE authors to build an auto-ducking timeline-based normalizer (i.e. adds adjustable points to the timeline around areas that critically peak and then adjust the rest of the track) but no one does it for whatever reason. Manually adjusting audio loudness levels gets fairly tedious and is time-consuming, which is why people are lazy and abuse compression after a quick normalize. It generally produces passable results in a fraction of the time. Most users are looking to get the project out the door, which is totally okay, but the folks behind the NLE software could be providing better audio normalization tools to help everyone.
Hi! Totally legit and constructive feedback, thanks. Honestly I don't know why I did things in this order in this video. I always set my levels, apply EQ, apply dynamics and then any effects. Must have been a complete oversight on my part, duh! 🤦♂️ I'm actually working on another audio series and the first vid is to set the levels followed by EQ, then dynamics. I actually address the same thing you just mentioned regarding normalizing and the peaks. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and feedback, I appreciate it! 😁👍
I think your music track is too overwhelming. Makes it impossible for me to watch this. Not sure if it's my monitors but I don't have the problem anywhere else. Using the A8H's.
Given that my hearing ain't what it used to be, some of the differences are pretty subtle, but they *do* add up. I've tried some as you were going through this and will for sure be using them in the future. Thanks for the tips! Question: Other than the right mic and a pop filter, what can you do to reduce plosives in post?
Thanks for watching! Other than a pop filter, you can try speaking past the mic instead of directly into it. I did that most of the time with my Yeti, even though it had a pop filter. Here's a video on how I set up my mic and got the best out of it: ua-cam.com/video/NvfhsRSv4QE/v-deo.html
Hey Jason! Thank you for your amazing content! Just a tiny critique - the background music is a little too loud and really spoils the experience of learning from you! Just my honest opinion
Hi Jay, I noticed that your voiceover audio is in 2 channels i.e. Stereo. From what I understand, voiceovers should be mono, since you wanna hear the same thing from both speakers (I think). You mentioned this in your video on audio ducking too. So should VO audio be Mono or Stereo? Does it affect any of the steps you mentioned in this video with regards to editing audio? Thanks a bunch in advance!
Hi Daniel! VO's can be mono or stereo, typically mono would be the way to go, depending on how you want your edit to sound. Everything should work the same, regardless if the track is stereo or mono. Thanks for watching!
Hi Jay, thanks for your help previously! Do you have any tips on how to reduce popping in vocals in Da Vinci Resolve? I tried the depop in dialogue processor but it didn't seem to work. I also tried playing with the EQ to cut out low frequencies but that made my voice sound very echo-ey. Thanks in advance!
Thank you! This guide literally saved me from having to re-record quite a few episodes, I didn't double-check my volume settings + just went head first into the recording, only to find out later my mic was really quiet! Thanks to this guide I was able to bring my voice back to being a prominent sound & saved myself a few hours
the audio definitely sounds better. Thanks so much for going through so much detail. I took notes and edited one of my own video's audio track with the tips you shared. Very helpful stuff =)

Oh man I wish I had watched this video before uploading my latest UA-cam video! it had lots of background noise and after learning about the gate in davinci resolve here I used it and it eliminated most of the noise! Thanks for the great video!
Awesome! Resolve has a ton of great audio features, I've got lots of videos on all the audio stuff. Audacity is great too, just depends which you like to use. 😜 Thanks for watching!
Hey 👋....I had a question.... should we use two compressors together?(Multiband and Dynamic)? Or should we use only one? And second, I wanna add a timelapse video to my timeline, so if I take 60-75 imgs and then put them one by one, one do I make them look like a timelapse? And if this ain't possible, is there anywhere from which I can download a sunset timelapse and use in YT without getting a copyright strike?
Hey - Yes you can use a compressor in the Dynamics and a multi band compressor. I do that on my audio. For the Time-lapse effect, Take look at Billy Rybka's channel, I think he's got a video on how to do it in Resolve.
I recently recorded a seminar (with less that perfect acoustics. Though I was able to get rid of most of the background noise and make the vocals better, there is still a bit of echo. Any tips for removing? plugins? Thank you for this video!
Hi! Glad you were able to make it sound a little bit better. I will try the voice isolation to see if it helps remove some of the echo. Waves has a great plug-in called De-Reverb and it helps a lot with echo and reverb. I have to make a video about it still but it does a really good job. Just keep in mind that waves does not officially support Davinci resolve, although the plug-ins do work with no problems. But if you have any trouble using the plugin in Davinci Resolve Waves support, will not be able to help you.
I am having trouble with a recording I did where my audio got messed up due to the noise gate in my recording software and my fan I'm assuming. The audio sounds horrible in the sense that my voice has a lot of bass and is constantly cutting in and out. I have tried the things in the video but cannot find a combination of settings that fix the issue, is there any why I can remedy this?
Hi! So to take care of the bass, I'd try adding a high pass filter and bring it up until it starts to cut out the bass of your voice. Or depending on where the bass is, you may need to grab a 2nd equation point, find the offending frequency (probably between 200 hz and 350 hz) and cut that frequency. As for the voice cutting out, if it was recorded using the gate, I'm thinking that audio is gone and you can't recover it. Unless the gate was applied in post, vs applied during the actual recording. I hope you're able to fix it up!
@@JasonYadlovski Thanks for the help I'm new to this audio stuff your videos been helping I'm gonna fumble around and see if I can fix it with what you said..
The closer you can get the mic the better. That allows you to keep the gain lower and reduce picking up unwanted noise. If you need it out of frame, look for a good shotgun microphone.
There is a problem with the comparison at the end between the orignal and the finished product. The first problem with the original was the lack of volume, so that is the first thing you corrected. After that, you made a bunch of corrections to other things. In the comparison, you used the low volume version of the original. Since we all realize that the volume was too low, you should have, as the original, the track with the volume adjusted. Then, the subtle differences between before and after would be more noticeable.
Thank you again... I haven't use the Dynamics and EQ and more.. since I was operating a board. This was a great experience...plus, how to...digitally. :)
I'm starting tutorials for my online coaching business and as a new entrepreneur starting everything from scratch, this has been a god send. Thank you so much!
Hey jason, thanks for awesome tutorials. I watched your below tuts and testing for about hours as I am very beginner in audio processing. 1. Audio crash course - oct 2019 2. This video 3. EQ vocals separate video - feb 2019 4. Noise reduction - may 2020 After watching above tut and experimenting I have NEVER understood what De-Esser do. I expected that De-esser will remove fan noise but fan noise was removed by "Gate In Dynamics" and "Band 4 in Multinand Compressor". Can you please tell how can I identify or test/differentiate De-esser sound. What sound should I record to experiment De-Esser effect ?
Hey Man, thanks for checking out my videos! Glad you are finding some good info in my audio videos! So the De-Esser removes or reduces the harsh 'S' sounds in vocals. I recently made a video all about it. Check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/SFERua4J8pc/v-deo.html To test it you can say something 'Sally Sells Sea Shells at the Sea Shore' Lots of 'S' in there for you to hear the De-Esser working. As you mentioned a fan in the background will be better removed by other tools, not the De-Esser.
@@JasonYadlovski Thank you so much Jason. I will surely check this video shared by you and test out again on previous audio and with Sally statement audio. Thanks. Will get back to you if I don't figure out difference.
Another good video Jason, but why are you working with 2 audio tracks when your source is just Mono? I always delete one of the channels for 2 reasons - one, it's easier on the eye to look at one waveform and two, any noise on either channel will be significantly reduced.
Hi Jason, Please help me: I have three audio tracks - track #1 is Sound EFX, track #2 is Music A and track #3 is music B. I would like to mix the three audio tracks to one Music and EFX track. How do I record the 3 audio on a final Mix audio track? Thank you so much. Cheers, Ettore
Thanks you for all these videos, I suffer with a bit of a lisp when talking with Cha and sh sounds ie the front end of saying channel or shower sounds terrible, please could you advise on how I could reduce these sounds?
I would recommend that you try using the EQ to find the problem area and then reduce the frequency. I do have an EQ crash course that should help you out. ua-cam.com/video/5Rs1XRQSlAM/v-deo.html
Hey, Jason! Thanks for the great video! Now, is there any way that I can save this as a preset? I know that one has to regulate audio depending on several factors, but what do you yourself do as someone who records in the same location and with the same mic? Do you spend time doing this every single time editing your audio?
Hi! You’re welcome! Yeas you can save a preset for any of your settings. Here’s a video on how to save presets, just check around 8:00 in the video ua-cam.com/video/5sPW1C4d4JM/v-deo.html
Hi! You can make changes to the main, but then everything is effected equally. If all of your clips are from the same audio source, then I think it's ok, but you can do the same thing on each track. If you have different audio sources, definitely use each track for each type of audio. That way you can adjust everything individually. Hope this helps!
I enjoyed this video very much. I work in the sound department on set, and this is one of the reasons why I am learning Davinci, which has a great sound editing section. Thank you for creating this great video, in a very easy to understand manner.
You’re welcome! Glad you found the video helpful. That’s awesome that you work in sound onset. I love sound stuff - I mix live music for a worship band too. A lot of fun. 👍😁 thanks for watching!

When you're doing the thing with the equalizer and the "sweeping", it basically all sounds awful when you crank it up like that. You have a keen ear to hear something "bad" among all that. Also that seems like a herculean task on a video with 10, 15, or even 30 minutes of dialogue. You spent 6 minutes (granted you're "teaching" so might be a little less normally, like 4 min) on EQing a 30 second clip. Sounds like hours and hours of work on a long video. I'm mostly just looking for how to get rid of the echo-y sound my voice has when recording video in my garage and it doesn't sound like anything you went over would actually do that. Guess my search continues!
Working with the EQ could take a long time. For me I’m in the same situation all the time in the same environment, so I just EQ a small section and it’s good to go for the rest of the clip. But if you’re in different situations I would split it into different tracks and tweak things accordingly. It’s gonna be pretty tough to remove the echo with just the tools and resolve. A little EQ work would help but you’re still going to hear the echo. Other companies such as Accusonus make plug-ins like a reverb remover which works pretty well. You may even be able to find a free plug-in that you can add into resolve to remove the reverb. The best thing to do is try and take care of it before you start recording, I know that would be very hard in a garage but maybe there is some small things you can do to help reduce the echo. You could try adding a gate or expander to help reduce the echo that occurs between when you’re talking. It might help minimize it a little bit. The noise reduction feature does not work so great, I don’t think it would do you any good in that situation.
@@JasonYadlovski thanks for the tip. i watch video on the dipyourcar channel and his voice sounds perfect, but when you listen to the bloopers at the end, there's no audio editing and his voice sounds exactly like mine with all the echo and whatnot, so they're obviously doing something in post. Was hoping it was a quick fix with Resolve since it's a rather robust tool. Maybe I can just drop some duckets on a nice lavalier mic. i'll look into the plugins though. thanks again
Hey Jason I found your channel in of hope fixing my audio problem I am experiencing in DaVinci Resolve....watching your content was eye opening to navigating this thing! Thanks for all you do...love your vids. OK...BACK TO MY PROBLEM😭😭😭 I'm editing..and my audio just disappeared😨 its been gone for a week now. Watched several videos elsewhere..nothing helped. I thought I might have to upgrade to resolve 18..did that. Still no audio😭😭😭 my levels on my cameras are set fine. I don't know what to do man! Any suggestions Jason?
To add I put in my headphones and since I have taken them out..each time I hit a command the screen reads, "audio output: headphones (Realtek audio) not found" No clue what that means
Hi! Thanks for checking out my videos! I'm assuming your clips have audio, it's just that you can't hear it, right? If that's the case, check out these videos and try the things I mention. The problem always seems to be different for everyone. ua-cam.com/play/PLsOqsM0-aW4F-7raWNn5Kc-j8wHXA6QYX.html
i have alot to play around with these settings, i was doing -2 on true peak, gate, desser, vocal, and compressor. This is super detailed and yes there is difference, i hear it on my edifier speakers very clear
Super helpful, Jason, thank you! I have 2 questions for you: 1 - when I'm scrubbing band 3 and 4 for "weird" sounds...what exactly are we looking for? Something that just sounds really hollow and odd? I've found some really odd sounding stuff usually between 1-2k range, but once I dip the gain and replay the audio...I can't seem to hear the difference. I DID hear it when I brought the gain all the way up to scrub though... 2 - Can you explain what Hold and Release means in the tools?
Hi! Thanks for checking out the video! To answer your questions - 1) You just looking for something that sounds bad. For example, muffled, it has a piercing quality to it, sound very hallow or when you hit that frequency, you think, ew that sounds bad. Then drop the Gain just a bit below the 0 line. The goal is just to pull out frequencies that sound harsh. If you reduce the gain too much, it's going to sound bad as well. Usually with EQ, less is more and always cut before you boost anything. 2) Hold is referring to the length of time that the compressor (I'm assuming you mean in the compressor) remains active after it stops receiving a signal. For example, there is talking, then the talking stops. Hold determines how long the compressor is active after the talking stop. Release refers to how long it takes from the time the compressor stops (determined by the hold) until the compressor is completely off/inactive. So do you want the audio to go back to 'normal' fast or slow? A larger Release means it gradually fade back to normal over a long period of time. Does that all make sense? If not, let me know. Hope this helps!
@@JasonYadlovski Thanks for that, Jason! The question about hold + release is actually pertaining to using Gate. I know I'm to mess with those 2 options if I'm hearing my voice cut in and cut out, but I wasn't sure what they 2 options actually did. I guess I want to make the gate "less sensitive" if you get what I'm saying. Sometimes I would be speaking just a bit low, and the Gate would pick that up and cut it off completely.
The hold and release mean the same thing for the gate. It should work in the same fashion. If you want it to be less sensitive, you'd probably want to also adjust the threshold, range and ratio.

Thank you so much for putting it all together! By this time I can understand everything you do in this video after your other videos. This is just a great summary I and many I hope appreciate!
Thank you so much. it is very helpful. I had a mic which caused very short milliseconds breaks in my audio footage. do you know a way of disguise those breaks? Thanks again
You’re welcome! I’m not sure if you’ll be able to remove the little breaks. Maybe if you try using an effect like a little bit of reverb or something. You could also try using the chorus effect to make the voice a little bit wider sounding. Not sure any of it would work but you could give it a try
This is by far the greatest tutorial I have ever seen on UA-cam. I really mean that and the reason is, you do something no one else bothers to do. Everyone else just gives the whole "you set this to that and play around" ordeal. You however actually took the time to say "Hey here's how you find the problems and how you fix them if they're there" that EQ bit was really great man thank you

He's still responding to comments on a video from 2 years ago, What a GOAT.
Yeah man! Just trying to help everybody as much as I can. That’s the whole point of my channel. 😜👍😁
Too much work...
1. get closer to mic and in proper position to mic type
2. declick
3. denoise
4. eq + compressor
5. deesser if you need it
That's all you need. Don't waste 30 min on useless work in audio. If you record bad, it will be bad anyway. Just record it better, and you will just do some minimal fixes in 2 minutes. And if you always record in the same room, with same acoustics and same mic placement, you save all of this as a preset and just drop it on every clip. 95% of the time you will speak the same, so nothing really needs to be changed.
Great tips! Thanks for sharing!

Very fast in speaking but instead of with a clear voice. Very well explained. Great job.
Thanks so much! I appreciate you checking out the video. I’m from New Jersey, that’s why I talk fast. 😜👍
Whooooa, this is amazing! Thank you very much!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Hi Jason,
all of these reverb presets are a bit too much.
What reverb settings do you recommend for a singing voice?
I need a more subtle setting than the ones offered by the presets.
Hi! Without knowing what the vocal sounds like and what effect you are going for, what I would do is to choose one of the presets, then go to the wet/dry mix dial, turn it to zero and slowly turn it up. That way just a little of the effect is mixed in and you should be able to make a nice balance. It's rare that you would use any of the presets at full blast. Hope that works out!
Thanks!
You're welcome and thank you! I appreciate your kind support! I'm happy to help with anything you need if I can. Just reach out. 😁👍
Thank you so much for sharing, very useful! However, why the audio of this video is far better than the edited audio? I expected you can tune the edited audio to the same level. Any suggestion?
Hi, thanks for watching! It all depends on how you edit the audio. I have a preset I use for all of my UA-cam videos but in this video I just did all of the editing on the fly. It may not match exactly what I use on a regular basis. 😁👍
Awesome tutorial fam, Though I'm curious about how could I save my work as a preset to be able to automatically add it to my other bits of audio without the need of repeating the same process multiple times, Thanks!
Thanks! Check out this video to save a preset: ua-cam.com/video/ll_9tz8Q7cQ/v-deo.html
Honestly, this is classic. Please do more like this
Thanks!
That was insanely helpful ... thanks so much! Your EQ sweeping section was a highlight for me.
You're welcome!
I know this is 2 years old, but I have to say, after watching so many other DaVinci audio tutorials I get super excited to try out new things only to find the sound still sounds blown out on YT. After watching this I realise what I have been doing wrong. Thank you for explaining things and showing things the way you do. I truly am very excited to put these new tricks to work. Please keep these wonderful vids up you are now my go to audio guy. Cheers Jason!
Awesome, but I was able to help you find the problem. I hope your audio is awesome know, thanks so much for watching!
Thank you! I just used this on my irish cream taste test vid and it works a charm!! More practice needed but it really helped improve the sound straight outta my old phone!
Awesome, that’s great! Thanks for watching!
This is a truly amazing tutorial. This really helped making my Boya M1 lav mic sound much better. It was absolute trash before I appliled these steps! Thank you very much for making this.
Awesome! A little bit of audio work can make a big difference! 😁 thanks for watching!
As a beginner with my own YT channel these type of videos really make progress go so much faster and easier. Highly appreciated! Liked & Subbed!
Awesome, thanks for the sub and like! I've got lots of videos to help you in Resolve! Best of luck with your channel!
For the comparison at the end surely you should have both at the same volume? Great video though, appreciate it!
Thanks for checking out the video! I forget exactly what I did here, but I'm thinking the louder volume was because of setting audio levels properly. But I'd have to watch the video again to refresh my memory. 😜
Thanks! Saving my life after 2 days of intense edition....my brain wouldn't cope 😂
You're welcome! Glad the vid helped!
Put the mic on a mic stand just out of frame, record peaks at +/- -9dB, use some ('sound' blankets) if your room has a lot of reflection. It will save so much work in post. A little Eq and compression should get you halve way there. If you listen to something that is louder; you perceive it as better... If you compare, get things equally loud! Happy mixing!
Thanks for sharing the tips! 😁👍
Thank you so much for this. After posting a couple of videos I was still not happy with my audio, now I know I need to get my microphone closer, but you, are the reason my audio is going to look great on the next video. Much appreciated.
Awesome, hope you're audio sounds great!
Thanks for the tips! I have a heck of a time getting my voiceovers to sound good. I'm gonna try your process next time and see how it sounds.
Awesome, let me know how it works out!
Hi, I have an issue with my mic in Davinci. I have a crackle on it in there but not in any other app I use a mike. I also would like to see a video on how I link Voicemeeter Potato. Can you help me.
Might be that sample rates don't match. You can set that in Resolve before you create a timeline.
It's weird my headphones seem to have a hundred millisecond delay so it looks like it's out of sync with your video I'm using xiaomi Pro buds 3
Are they wireless? If they’re connected via Bluetooth that could be causing the delay.
In another video you use -2 db as your audio normalize. Any suggestion? TIA
Generally I try to set my speaking audio around -8 DB. When the video is done, I check the loudness and make sure the LUFS are a little below -14 LUFS which is what UA-cam will allow.
Was struggling with a audio settings from a long period of time. This video resolved all my issues. Thanks a lot.
Awesome, you’re welcome! Hope your audio sounded awesome now! 😁👍
very usefull tips in this video for me, really helps to brighten and sweeten up my voice in playback. I find it so funny to learn how much a little tweaking can make a difference so thanks a lot!
You’re welcome! I agree, a few small changes can make a big difference. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!
Hey bud, great video helped a ton. Got a small question though. You mentioned saving a pre-set for the eq but didn't show it.
My question is how do you save it?
Hey man thanks! Here’s a video I did on how to save an EQ preset: ua-cam.com/video/6jBSiH_CzDU/v-deo.html

Thanks bud I'll check it out.
You got it! 👍👍
Not sure how i've never found you earlier, i've been eating up all the Davinci Resolve content i can get my hands on...
This was SUCH a clear, concise, useful, well presented video i'm ashamed i didn't know about you sooner.
Def subbed now!
Plz keep making these kinds of videos!
Awesome! Glad you found my channel! I’m happy to hear that my videos have been helpful and I really appreciate your sub! Welcome to the community! 😁👍
@@JasonYadlovski you have no idea how useful this video was, i shot a wedding and they had no way to plug into the PA system to record the vows so i had to roll with a simple wireless mic on the groom alone (which inadvertently got moved to the inside of his coat before the ceremony). This video basically saved my entire audio recording; i was able to get it to sound good despite the original file sounding like it was recorded through a chipmunks anus
Awesome! Glad the video was helpful and was able to save your video! Thanks so much for dropping a comment! 😁👍
Great explanations! Don't know if you noticed this, but your compression wasn't doing anything. That's why nobody heard any difference. You can tell by the gain reduction meters, They weren't moving at all during the compression part of your explanation.
Thanks Paul!
This video is kind of backwards. I was taught that you are supposed to gate your noise floor before you compress your audio and that EQ is supposed to be done before applying dynamics. That jives with the order in which Fairlight displays the EQ and Dynamics options. IIRC, it tends to distort audio a bit without realizing it if those things are handled out of order.
Most of this video stems from the fact that automatic audio normalization is a fundamentally broken tool. The standard automatic audio normalization tool normalizes the audio across a whole track by picking the max peak and setting the boost to a static level that never exceeds that peak, which almost always produces undesirable results. The sample track used in the video demonstrates the problem: There is one brief moment of loudness compared to the rest of the track and so that becomes the max peak while the vast majority of the rest of the track falls well below the target dB level. Compression is the hack that most people then use to compensate but compression actually distorts the original sound.
Everyone is in the market for a better audio normalizer that auto-ducks the 1-2 peaks that happen sporadically across a very large sample window (e.g. 15-30 seconds), allowing for better overall normalization of a track. A tool like that would probably be the single greatest improvement to audio normalization in the last 30 years and wouldn't be hard for NLE authors to build an auto-ducking timeline-based normalizer (i.e. adds adjustable points to the timeline around areas that critically peak and then adjust the rest of the track) but no one does it for whatever reason. Manually adjusting audio loudness levels gets fairly tedious and is time-consuming, which is why people are lazy and abuse compression after a quick normalize. It generally produces passable results in a fraction of the time. Most users are looking to get the project out the door, which is totally okay, but the folks behind the NLE software could be providing better audio normalization tools to help everyone.
Hi! Totally legit and constructive feedback, thanks. Honestly I don't know why I did things in this order in this video. I always set my levels, apply EQ, apply dynamics and then any effects. Must have been a complete oversight on my part, duh! 🤦♂️ I'm actually working on another audio series and the first vid is to set the levels followed by EQ, then dynamics. I actually address the same thing you just mentioned regarding normalizing and the peaks. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and feedback, I appreciate it! 😁👍
I think your music track is too overwhelming. Makes it impossible for me to watch this. Not sure if it's my monitors but I don't have the problem anywhere else. Using the A8H's.
Thanks for the feedback!
Given that my hearing ain't what it used to be, some of the differences are pretty subtle, but they *do* add up. I've tried some as you were going through this and will for sure be using them in the future. Thanks for the tips! Question: Other than the right mic and a pop filter, what can you do to reduce plosives in post?
Thanks for watching! Other than a pop filter, you can try speaking past the mic instead of directly into it. I did that most of the time with my Yeti, even though it had a pop filter. Here's a video on how I set up my mic and got the best out of it: ua-cam.com/video/NvfhsRSv4QE/v-deo.html
@@JasonYadlovski Yep, that did the trick. That's a great video, BTW. Terrific information!
Hey Jason! Thank you for your amazing content! Just a tiny critique - the background music is a little too loud and really spoils the experience of learning from you! Just my honest opinion
Thanks for checking out my videos and your feedback! 👍
Amazing video, so informative!
Thank you! I appreciate you taking the time to check out the video! Hope you get some awesome audio now. 😁
Hi Jay, I noticed that your voiceover audio is in 2 channels i.e. Stereo. From what I understand, voiceovers should be mono, since you wanna hear the same thing from both speakers (I think). You mentioned this in your video on audio ducking too. So should VO audio be Mono or Stereo? Does it affect any of the steps you mentioned in this video with regards to editing audio? Thanks a bunch in advance!
Hi Daniel! VO's can be mono or stereo, typically mono would be the way to go, depending on how you want your edit to sound. Everything should work the same, regardless if the track is stereo or mono. Thanks for watching!
@@JasonYadlovski Thanks so much!
Hi Jay, thanks for your help previously! Do you have any tips on how to reduce popping in vocals in Da Vinci Resolve? I tried the depop in dialogue processor but it didn't seem to work. I also tried playing with the EQ to cut out low frequencies but that made my voice sound very echo-ey. Thanks in advance!
Thank you! This guide literally saved me from having to re-record quite a few episodes, I didn't double-check my volume settings + just went head first into the recording, only to find out later my mic was really quiet! Thanks to this guide I was able to bring my voice back to being a prominent sound & saved myself a few hours
You’re welcome! Really happy to hear that this video helped you out and you didn’t have to redo your work. Best of luck on your videos! 😁👍
the audio definitely sounds better. Thanks so much for going through so much detail. I took notes and edited one of my own video's audio track with the tips you shared. Very helpful stuff =)
Awesome that’s great! I’m happy to hear the tips helped you out! 👍😁
Is there an easy way to copy settings from one track to another track in a different timeline?
Sure, you can make a global track preset. I do have some videos on how to make presets.
Thank you for this tutorial....you really helped me....how can i save the presets for future use...you somehow forgt to say that

Oh man I wish I had watched this video before uploading my latest UA-cam video! it had lots of background noise and after learning about the gate in davinci resolve here I used it and it eliminated most of the noise! Thanks for the great video!
You're welcome! I love the gate, I use it all the time. Works great! Thanks for watching!
Great walkthrough. I use audacity a lot and appreciate how DaVinci resolve has so
Much for the audio workflow for my podcast.
Awesome! Resolve has a ton of great audio features, I've got lots of videos on all the audio stuff. Audacity is great too, just depends which you like to use. 😜 Thanks for watching!
Still a great video a year later ;) Thanks for sharing
Thanks!
Hi Jason, great video thank you, just curious though, is it possible to save all these settings for the next time I shoot a video in the same spot?
You’re welcome! Yes you can save Presets, here’s a video on how to do it: ua-cam.com/video/ll_9tz8Q7cQ/v-deo.html

Hey 👋....I had a question.... should we use two compressors together?(Multiband and Dynamic)? Or should we use only one? And second, I wanna add a timelapse video to my timeline, so if I take 60-75 imgs and then put them one by one, one do I make them look like a timelapse? And if this ain't possible, is there anywhere from which I can download a sunset timelapse and use in YT without getting a copyright strike?
Hey - Yes you can use a compressor in the Dynamics and a multi band compressor. I do that on my audio. For the Time-lapse effect, Take look at Billy Rybka's channel, I think he's got a video on how to do it in Resolve.
@@JasonYadlovski YES!!!!!THANKS FOR REMINDING MAN
I recently recorded a seminar (with less that perfect acoustics.
Though I was able to get rid of most of the background noise and make the vocals better, there is still a bit of echo.
Any tips for removing? plugins?
Thank you for this video!
Hi! Glad you were able to make it sound a little bit better. I will try the voice isolation to see if it helps remove some of the echo. Waves has a great plug-in called De-Reverb and it helps a lot with echo and reverb. I have to make a video about it still but it does a really good job. Just keep in mind that waves does not officially support Davinci resolve, although the plug-ins do work with no problems. But if you have any trouble using the plugin in Davinci Resolve Waves support, will not be able to help you.
I am having trouble with a recording I did where my audio got messed up due to the noise gate in my recording software and my fan I'm assuming. The audio sounds horrible in the sense that my voice has a lot of bass and is constantly cutting in and out. I have tried the things in the video but cannot find a combination of settings that fix the issue, is there any why I can remedy this?
Hi! So to take care of the bass, I'd try adding a high pass filter and bring it up until it starts to cut out the bass of your voice. Or depending on where the bass is, you may need to grab a 2nd equation point, find the offending frequency (probably between 200 hz and 350 hz) and cut that frequency.
As for the voice cutting out, if it was recorded using the gate, I'm thinking that audio is gone and you can't recover it. Unless the gate was applied in post, vs applied during the actual recording.
I hope you're able to fix it up!
@@JasonYadlovski Thanks for the help I'm new to this audio stuff your videos been helping I'm gonna fumble around and see if I can fix it with what you said..
Absolutely sounds better! But as you said, it sounds distant. Some things will not be "fixable". Thanks for the info.. super useful.👍
You're welcome! Thanks for checking out the video! 😁👍
Thanks for a massively helpful video for a convoluted program!
You’re Welcome! Happy to help! 😁👍
to have audio like yours do you must got a microfone close to you? is that a way yo get the mic out of the frame AND get a audio of your likes?
The closer you can get the mic the better. That allows you to keep the gain lower and reduce picking up unwanted noise. If you need it out of frame, look for a good shotgun microphone.
I personally think all your vocals need a little more low frequency boost - but hey - each to their own
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and checking out the video! I appreciate it!
Thanks. :-) Is there a way to save all the changes, so I don't have to go through them each time I create a new video?
Yes! You can save all kinds of audio presets: ua-cam.com/video/ll_9tz8Q7cQ/v-deo.html Here's a video on it. 😜
There is a problem with the comparison at the end between the orignal and the finished product. The first problem with the original was the lack of volume, so that is the first thing you corrected. After that, you made a bunch of corrections to other things. In the comparison, you used the low volume version of the original. Since we all realize that the volume was too low, you should have, as the original, the track with the volume adjusted. Then, the subtle differences between before and after would be more noticeable.
Thanks for watching and for the suggestion!
@@JasonYadlovski Thanks for the video. It went a long way to helping me understand audio adjustments in Resolve.
Thank you again... I haven't use the Dynamics and EQ and more.. since I was operating a board. This was a great experience...plus, how to...digitally. :)
Your welcome! Some great tools to use in Resolve. 😁👍

Hey jason, thanks for awesome tutorials. I watched your below tuts and testing for about hours as I am very beginner in audio processing.
1. Audio crash course - oct 2019
2. This video
3. EQ vocals separate video - feb 2019
4. Noise reduction - may 2020
After watching above tut and experimenting I have NEVER understood what De-Esser do. I expected that De-esser will remove fan noise but fan noise was removed by "Gate In Dynamics" and "Band 4 in Multinand Compressor".
Can you please tell how can I identify or test/differentiate De-esser sound. What sound should I record to experiment De-Esser effect ?
Hey Man, thanks for checking out my videos! Glad you are finding some good info in my audio videos! So the De-Esser removes or reduces the harsh 'S' sounds in vocals. I recently made a video all about it. Check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/SFERua4J8pc/v-deo.html To test it you can say something 'Sally Sells Sea Shells at the Sea Shore' Lots of 'S' in there for you to hear the De-Esser working. As you mentioned a fan in the background will be better removed by other tools, not the De-Esser.
@@JasonYadlovski Thank you so much Jason. I will surely check this video shared by you and test out again on previous audio and with Sally statement audio. Thanks. Will get back to you if I don't figure out difference.
Another good video Jason, but why are you working with 2 audio tracks when your source is just Mono? I always delete one of the channels for 2 reasons - one, it's easier on the eye to look at one waveform and two, any noise on either channel will be significantly reduced.
I leave it in stereo sometimes because that’s how it comes in. You can just change the track to mono instead of deleting one of the channels to.
Hi Jason, Please help me: I have three audio tracks - track #1 is Sound EFX, track #2 is Music A and track #3 is music B. I would like to mix the three audio tracks to one Music and EFX track. How do I record the 3 audio on a final Mix audio track? Thank you so much. Cheers, Ettore
Hi! Just send all the channels to a new BUS. Then there's no need to mix or bounce them together.
Thanks you for all these videos, I suffer with a bit of a lisp when talking with Cha and sh sounds ie the front end of saying channel or shower sounds terrible, please could you advise on how I could reduce these sounds?
You're welcome! You can try a little EQ, but if that's just how you talk, you might not be able to remove it.
I always get a metallic sound while listening to my HyperX cloud, do you have any videos that talk about getting rid of that?
I would recommend that you try using the EQ to find the problem area and then reduce the frequency. I do have an EQ crash course that should help you out. ua-cam.com/video/5Rs1XRQSlAM/v-deo.html
Hey, Jason! Thanks for the great video! Now, is there any way that I can save this as a preset?
I know that one has to regulate audio depending on several factors, but what do you yourself do as someone who records in the same location and with the same mic? Do you spend time doing this every single time editing your audio?
Hi! You’re welcome! Yeas you can save a preset for any of your settings. Here’s a video on how to save presets, just check around 8:00 in the video ua-cam.com/video/5sPW1C4d4JM/v-deo.html
I do use a preset for my audio and just tweak it as necessary. 👍😁 thanks for watching!
Can you please do your setup tour
Tour of my UA-cam setup? Sure. I'll make a video about it in the near future. 👍
@@JasonYadlovski thanks , it will be great to know more about you
You got it!
If I am making a video that has multiple audio clips, can I just adjust settings in main 1?
Hi! You can make changes to the main, but then everything is effected equally. If all of your clips are from the same audio source, then I think it's ok, but you can do the same thing on each track. If you have different audio sources, definitely use each track for each type of audio. That way you can adjust everything individually. Hope this helps!
I enjoyed this video very much. I work in the sound department on set, and this is one of the reasons why I am learning Davinci, which has a great sound editing section. Thank you for creating this great video, in a very easy to understand manner.
You’re welcome! Glad you found the video helpful. That’s awesome that you work in sound onset. I love sound stuff - I mix live music for a worship band too. A lot of fun. 👍😁 thanks for watching!

Esses are important parts of European phonetics ;)
Nice! I didn’t know that. Guess you might want to go easy on the DeEsser in that case. 😁 thanks for sharing and checking out the video! 😁👍
When you're doing the thing with the equalizer and the "sweeping", it basically all sounds awful when you crank it up like that. You have a keen ear to hear something "bad" among all that. Also that seems like a herculean task on a video with 10, 15, or even 30 minutes of dialogue. You spent 6 minutes (granted you're "teaching" so might be a little less normally, like 4 min) on EQing a 30 second clip. Sounds like hours and hours of work on a long video. I'm mostly just looking for how to get rid of the echo-y sound my voice has when recording video in my garage and it doesn't sound like anything you went over would actually do that. Guess my search continues!
Working with the EQ could take a long time. For me I’m in the same situation all the time in the same environment, so I just EQ a small section and it’s good to go for the rest of the clip. But if you’re in different situations I would split it into different tracks and tweak things accordingly.
It’s gonna be pretty tough to remove the echo with just the tools and resolve. A little EQ work would help but you’re still going to hear the echo. Other companies such as Accusonus make plug-ins like a reverb remover which works pretty well. You may even be able to find a free plug-in that you can add into resolve to remove the reverb. The best thing to do is try and take care of it before you start recording, I know that would be very hard in a garage but maybe there is some small things you can do to help reduce the echo.
You could try adding a gate or expander to help reduce the echo that occurs between when you’re talking. It might help minimize it a little bit. The noise reduction feature does not work so great, I don’t think it would do you any good in that situation.
@@JasonYadlovski thanks for the tip. i watch video on the dipyourcar channel and his voice sounds perfect, but when you listen to the bloopers at the end, there's no audio editing and his voice sounds exactly like mine with all the echo and whatnot, so they're obviously doing something in post. Was hoping it was a quick fix with Resolve since it's a rather robust tool. Maybe I can just drop some duckets on a nice lavalier mic. i'll look into the plugins though. thanks again
Absolutly great, never had a precise DaVinci tutorial like this before. THX!!!

Hey Jason I found your channel in of hope fixing my audio problem I am experiencing in DaVinci Resolve....watching your content was eye opening to navigating this thing! Thanks for all you do...love your vids. OK...BACK TO MY PROBLEM😭😭😭
I'm editing..and my audio just disappeared😨 its been gone for a week now. Watched several videos elsewhere..nothing helped. I thought I might have to upgrade to resolve 18..did that. Still no audio😭😭😭 my levels on my cameras are set fine. I don't know what to do man! Any suggestions Jason?
To add I put in my headphones and since I have taken them out..each time I hit a command the screen reads, "audio output: headphones (Realtek audio) not found" No clue what that means
Hi! Thanks for checking out my videos! I'm assuming your clips have audio, it's just that you can't hear it, right? If that's the case, check out these videos and try the things I mention. The problem always seems to be different for everyone. ua-cam.com/play/PLsOqsM0-aW4F-7raWNn5Kc-j8wHXA6QYX.html

Hi can you please make a video on 5.1 mixing and 3d panner in davinci resolve
I've got it on the list for a future video. 👍
@@JasonYadlovski tq ❤️
Super helpful, Jason, thank you! I have 2 questions for you:
1 - when I'm scrubbing band 3 and 4 for "weird" sounds...what exactly are we looking for? Something that just sounds really hollow and odd? I've found some really odd sounding stuff usually between 1-2k range, but once I dip the gain and replay the audio...I can't seem to hear the difference. I DID hear it when I brought the gain all the way up to scrub though...
2 - Can you explain what Hold and Release means in the tools?
Hi! Thanks for checking out the video! To answer your questions - 1) You just looking for something that sounds bad. For example, muffled, it has a piercing quality to it, sound very hallow or when you hit that frequency, you think, ew that sounds bad. Then drop the Gain just a bit below the 0 line. The goal is just to pull out frequencies that sound harsh. If you reduce the gain too much, it's going to sound bad as well. Usually with EQ, less is more and always cut before you boost anything.
2) Hold is referring to the length of time that the compressor (I'm assuming you mean in the compressor) remains active after it stops receiving a signal. For example, there is talking, then the talking stops. Hold determines how long the compressor is active after the talking stop. Release refers to how long it takes from the time the compressor stops (determined by the hold) until the compressor is completely off/inactive. So do you want the audio to go back to 'normal' fast or slow? A larger Release means it gradually fade back to normal over a long period of time.
Does that all make sense? If not, let me know. Hope this helps!
@@JasonYadlovski Thanks for that, Jason! The question about hold + release is actually pertaining to using Gate. I know I'm to mess with those 2 options if I'm hearing my voice cut in and cut out, but I wasn't sure what they 2 options actually did. I guess I want to make the gate "less sensitive" if you get what I'm saying. Sometimes I would be speaking just a bit low, and the Gate would pick that up and cut it off completely.
The hold and release mean the same thing for the gate. It should work in the same fashion. If you want it to be less sensitive, you'd probably want to also adjust the threshold, range and ratio.

You're welcome! I'm happy to see how much my videos help people. 😁
Really helpful, with this video I made my singing sound a lot better. Thanks!
Glad it helped!

You’re welcome! 😁👍
Thank you so much. it is very helpful.
I had a mic which caused very short milliseconds breaks in my audio footage. do you know a way of disguise those breaks? Thanks again
You’re welcome! I’m not sure if you’ll be able to remove the little breaks. Maybe if you try using an effect like a little bit of reverb or something. You could also try using the chorus effect to make the voice a little bit wider sounding. Not sure any of it would work but you could give it a try
@@JasonYadlovski thanks. I'll try that 😉👌
Thanks for the tutorials. This is a great one. I had my headphones on and the sound that came in at 24:54 made me jump.
You’re welcome!
