Using Plugins; Mixing Your Audio - Blackmagicdesign Cintel Installation And Operation Manual

Most of the time automatic tracking is successful, but scenes can be complex and sometimes
an object can pass in front of your selected area, interrupting or affecting your track. This can
be solved manually using the keyframe editor. Refer to the DaVinci Resolve manual to
find out more.

Using Plugins

While making secondary color corrections you can also add Resolve FX or Open FX plugins to
create fast, interesting looks and effects using the 'color' page, or imaginative transitions and
effects on your clips on the 'cut' and 'edit' pages. Resolve FX are installed with DaVinci Resolve,
OFX plugins can be purchased and downloaded from third party suppliers.
After installing a set of OFX plugins, you can access them or Resolve FX plugins on the color
page by opening the Open FX inspector to the right of the 'node editor'. Once you create a new
serial node, simply click the 'Open FX' button to open the FX library and drag and drop a plugin
onto the new node. If the plugin has editable settings, you can adjust these in the adjoining
'settings' panel.
OFX plugins are a quick and easy way to create an imaginative and interesting look
In the 'edit' page you can add plugin filters, generators and transitions to clips by opening the
'Open FX' panel in the 'effects library' and dragging your selected plugin onto the video clip or
track above your clip on the timeline depending on the plugin requirements.

Mixing Your Audio

Mixing Audio in the Edit Page
Once you have edited and color corrected your project, you can begin to mix your audio.
DaVinci Resolve has a helpful set of features for editing, mixing and mastering audio for your
project directly in the 'edit' page. For projects requiring more advanced audio tools, the
Fairlight page provides you with a full audio post production environment. If you are already
familiar with the edit page and want to move straight to Fairlight, skip this section and move
onto the next.
Adding Audio Tracks
If you are working in the edit page and want to mix a basic sound edit with lots of sound effects
and music, you can easily add more audio tracks when you need them. This can be helpful
when building your sound, and separating your audio elements into individual tracks, for
example, dialogue, sound effects and music.
