DaVinci Resolve Studio 18.5 Build 41 Portable (MULTi/RUS)

DaVinci Resolve sets new standards for quality post-production, which is why it is used more often than any other system in the creation of feature films, television series and commercials.

In addition, DaVinci Resolve 18 Studio is the only application with collaborative tools so that editors, colorists, VFX specialists, and sound engineers can work simultaneously on the same project. DaVinci Resolve sets new standards for quality post-production, which is why it is used more often than any other system in the creation of feature films, television series and commercials.

KUT page
The KUT page is designed to work on short cycle material such as commercials or news releases. Here is concentrated a whole set of innovative tools for a significant optimization of installation. With their help, you can import and fit, add transitions and text, automatically align color and mix the audio track. Such functionality ensures that content is quickly prepared for display on television and services such as YouTube. In addition, if necessary, you can always switch to the familiar tools of the Edit section, even in the middle of the current project.

New features :
This version gives even more features, has a whole set of ResolveFX and FairlightFX plug-ins, and also provides processing of material in 4K, 8K and higher resolutions at up to 120 frames / s. It includes the DaVinci Neural Engine, which allows you to recognize human faces, use the Speed ​​Warp function to create timing effects, perform automatic alignment and apply a color scheme. DaVinci Resolve Studio also includes tools for adding grain, blurring and fogging, advanced noise reduction, and grading HDR material. Additional support is provided for H.264 (10-bit), 3D surround sound, stereoscopic 3D video, and co-creation tools.

An overview of editing tools in DaVinci Resolve :

The new DaVinci Neural Engine platform allows you to automatically collect clips into one folder based on the presence of human faces in the frame.
• Precise transition to the desired audio fragment
Exceptionally accurate playback speed and frame rate conversion using the DaVinci Neural Engine.
• Image stabilization function
Frame analysis and stabilization on the Edit page using camera lock, zoom, and anti-aliasing tools at varying intensities.
• Keyframe editing with curves
Accelerated creation of animation effects using special tools and keyframe editing for ResolveFX and OpenFX plugins.
• Speed ​​Warp Effect
The ability to search for the desired fragment and tone correction for understanding speech during a step-by-step transition.

Access the Frame.io platform and view comments and sync notes without leaving DaVinci Resolve.

DaVinci Resolve Studio
This version gives even more features, has a whole set of ResolveFX and FairlightFX plug-ins, and also provides processing of material in 4K, 8K and higher resolutions at up to 120 frames / s. It includes the DaVinci Neural Engine, which allows you to recognize human faces, use the Speed ​​Warp function to create timing effects, perform automatic alignment and apply a color scheme. DaVinci Resolve Studio also includes tools for adding grain, blurring and fogging, advanced noise reduction, and grading HDR material. Additional support is provided for H.264 (10-bit), 3D surround sound, stereoscopic 3D video, and co-creation tools.

DaVinci Neural Engine Platform
The new DaVinci Neural Engine platform uses the latest technologies based on neural networks, artificial intelligence and machine learning. This adds features such as Speed ​​Warp for timing effects and Super Scale for zooming in, auto alignment and color scheme application. Compatible with any operating system and efficient allocation of GPU resources provides unsurpassed processing speed and quality, allowing you to solve complex and time-consuming tasks with simple tools. For example, face recognition makes it possible to sort and place clips in folders without performing manual operations.

New and Improved ResolveFX Plugins
DaVinci Resolve 18 Studio brings significant improvements to existing ResolveFX plugins and adds new ones. They allow you to use vignetting and shadows, analog noise, distortion and color aberration, remove objects and stylize the material. A number of other tools have been further optimized, including TV Line Simulation, Facial Smoothing, Background Fill, Reshaping, Dead Pixel Removal, and Color Space Transformation. In addition, keyframes for ResolveFX effects can be viewed and edited using curves on the Edit and Color pages.

Legendary DaVinci Quality
DaVinci Resolve uses Emmy™ award-winning 32-bit precision processing technology, and the YRGB color space allows you to separate the Y-component from the red, green, and blue channels. This makes it possible to adjust the brightness settings without rebalancing the color in the highlights, midtones, and shadows. Such functionality provides full support for the latest formats with a wide dynamic range to create an original visual range.

Blackmagic RAW
Blackmagic RAW is a new state-of-the-art codec that delivers exceptional image quality and superior speed performance. Thanks to an improved debayerization algorithm and a completely different processing method, it retains all the advantages of RAW, but at the same time it is easier to handle and faster to use, and the files created with it do not exceed the size of a regular video.
Blackmagic RAW partially transfers debayerization from the software application to the camera itself, where this process is performed in hardware. Due to this redistribution of resources, compression becomes much more efficient, and video requires less space on the storage device. Blackmagic RAW is not just another format with the RAW extension, but a new hybrid codec that takes into account the peculiarities of the camera sensor. The resulting image, even at a high compression ratio, has excellent performance, giving you full control over a range of RAW parameters, including ISO, white balance, exposure, contrast, saturation, and custom color space. Additionally, Blackmagic RAW offers comprehensive support for metadata and customizable .sidecar files,
Blackmagic RAW is suitable for shooting, editing and grading projects, while all operations are performed from a single file. Any changes to the camera settings are not only reflected in DaVinci Resolve as metadata, but are fully editable. After adjusting the RAW parameters in DaVinci Resolve, the resulting clip is easy to open for viewing and automatic use in other programs that recognize Blackmagic RAW. Due to this, a uniform visual range is achieved regardless of the application or platform used. All of this makes Blackmagic RAW the fastest RAW-based codec that delivers exceptional image quality.

Pre-Installation Notes
For DaVinci Resolve 18.5, we have taken efforts to keep the project libraries compatible with DaVinci Resolve 18.1.4. While this allows you to access the project library with 18.1.4, individual projects created or opened in 18.5 will no longer be accessible in 18.1.4.
We recommend a full project library backup as well as individual project backups for projects before opening projects in 18.5.
