Record Audio Directly into DaVinci Resolve Fairlight!
This week’s episode is a quick tutorial covering how to set up and record audio directly into DaVinci Resolve! This can help simplify your voiceover and podcast signal chain and workflow all the way from setup to post-production. First we’ll show you how to configure your system audio settings, then how to properly route your signal into audio tracks in Resolve, and finally walk through how to actually record and make the most of the controls available to you in Fairlight. Let’s see how it’s done!
