Sound for Video Session — Sweeten audio in Fairlight & Q&A

In this week's session, we demonstrate some simple things you can do in DaVinci Resolve Fairlight 18.5 to make your audio sound better. We'll cover EQ, noise reduction, de-essing, and compression. Then we'll answer your sound for video related questions.

If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F6, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders. We have a course on sound for live-streaming with the ATEM Mini and just added Introduction to Izotope RX for Dialogue Audio.
