DaVinci Resolve Studio Dongle

Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve Studio is an NLE that can be used for projects ranging from personal films to feature films and VFX. The Color page features new HDR grading tools, an AI-based magic mask for targeted grading, and a color warper. Fairlight provides a faster workflow with updated mouse and keyboard edit selection tools. Fairlight also has a next-generation audio engine and busing architecture with support for editing 2000 tracks in real time.

The Cut tab offers Smart Reframe for social media among other new capabilities. The Edit page has many improvements to workflow and now allows independent proxy media that can be generated internally or externally by third-party tools. Fusion provides new features such as custom vector shapes. Also, compositions created in Fusion can now be used as an effect, title, or transition in the Cut and Edit tabs.

DaVinci Resolve offers a comprehensive editing experience by combining different editors in one platform, across different tabs at the bottom of the interface. Between these different tabs, you get full-featured advanced solutions for video editing, color correction, visual effects, motion graphics, and audio post-production. DaVinci Resolve is also built to work fast and efficiently and to handle large projects with collaboration. You can work with up to 8K footage and a wide variety of formats. Toolsets are available for advanced HDR editing, 3D stereoscopic workflows, social media content, and much more.

Your order provides you with a USB dongle that lets you download the software on an unlimited number of computers and move between them as needed.
