Audio Lag RESOLVED by DaVinci Resolve!
The free version of the video editing application did it without having to be asked
Viva DaVinci Resolve!
This feels monumental to me. This whole video editing learning curve has taken a huge step forward by an order of magnitude.
The audio-lag error from Adobe Premiere Pro that I spoke about in a previous post has been corrected, or resolved I should say, by importing the original video file to DaVinci Resolve. The free version immediately fixed it without being prompted by me. The moment after the video had appeared in the media block a prompt appeared on the screen asking if I wanted the frame rate changed. I accepted the suggestion to change the timeline frame rate to match the different frame rate of the clip in relation to the project, and Wah-Lah!, the sound immediately caught up to the action on the video.
I had been asking around for advice on how to fix the audio issue and was getting suggestions from people that used apps other than Premiere Pro. This got me thinking on the track of expanding my toolbox away from what I’d been using up to now.
I’m so stoked it did too.
Now I’m exploring other aspects of the DaVinci Resolve and finding other pleasant surprises, like the timeline block is larger and hence easier to read. Here I’ve been paying $59.99 per month for Adobes CC’s suite of apps and wit the economic conditions beginning to tighten I wanted to look for ways to save. This is one. Adobe Premier Pro, looks like I may not need you anymore. I’m going to look for other free apps to replace Photoshop, Lightroom, InDesign, PDF creation, and anything else I use. I’m certain video AI apps will be popping up.
Leonardo DaVinci was the original Renaissance Man. An artist of unequaled excellence and a scientist, inventor, and free-thinker who assiduously documented his research and investigative musings via notebooks. Had he been alive today and kept a blog I would have subscribed to it with unparalleled interest. It really fits that this amazing video edited program bears his name, and it’s free to the betterment of society.
