Free is not always synonymous for cheap! Blackmagic Design’s DaVinci Resolve latest version 17 combines editing, colour correction, visual effects, motion graphics and audio postproduction all in one software tool that can be downloaded fully functional for free for Mac OS X, Windows and Linux. For advanced functionalities like the Neural Engine for intelligent colour grading, 3D tools, FX filters and FX audio plugins, advanced HDR grading and HDR scopes you will need to buy the full Studio version. The beauty of Resolve is the ease of use, switching between the different functions (audio, video, effects, grading) is as intuitive as working in word: each section opens a different page, all within the same application. Meanwhile the application is as complete and powerful as any high-end editor or sound mixer can imagine, and ready to produce video at a professional level. For the novice, Resolve will be daunting at first sight but on the Resolve web site there is a good list of training materials and tutorials to make learning easy and quick. And one nice thing that is not unimportant: this application runs smooth and solid as a rock. Free download…
