The cut page has a streamlined interface that’s fast to learn and designed for speed. Features such as source tape for visual media browsing, fast review, and smart editing tools help you work faster than ever. The sync bin and source overwrite tools are the fastest way to edit multi-cam programs, with easy to create perfectly synchronized cut aways! With DaVinci Resolve you’ll spend more time editing and less time hunting for shots. Hollywood’s favorite color corrector!

AI Tools for Creativity with Studio In-App-Purchase Upgrade to DaVinci Resolve Studio to get cutting edge AI processing powered by the DaVinci AI Neural Engine. Tools such as magic mask need only a single stroke to locate and track people, features and objects in a shot. You can make characters stand out in an under lit shot, or invert the mask and stylize the background. Smart reframe repurposes footage to dramatically different aspect ratios by recognizing the action in a scene and panning within it so you can quickly create square or vertical versions for posting to social media. Voice isolation lets you easily remove loud, undesirable sounds from interviews and dialogue recordings from noisy locations. AI tools create quick, accurate results saving you hours of time! Compatibility Recommended for use with Apple iPad Pro M1 or newer models with a minimum of 8GB of RAM. Earlier iPad models may be restricted to HD, and memory limitations may limit some features.
