A4DRUM HIT track.

Recording Audio in a Timeline

You can record your own voiceover in DaVinci Resolve right in the Fairlight page timeline.

All you need to do is set up a microphone, patch the microphone input to a track, arm the

track, and start recording.

In this exercise, you’ll record a temporary ending voiceover tag for this trailer. Frequently,

the voiceover talent can’t record his or her lines until after you have started editing the

sound. So, you can easily record a temporary VO clip to use as you edit. When the real

VOtalent arrives, you can use this same recording method to record the final VO directly

into the timeline.

NOTE If you don’t have a separate microphone, you can use the built-in

microphone in your computer for the following exercises. If you lack a microphone

entirely, read through the set-up and recording sections and follow along when the

recording is finished.

1 If you have a standalone USB microphone, close DaVinci Resolve, and attach the

microphone to your computer.

2 In your computer’s Sound preferences or settings, set your microphone (or the

built-inmic) as the audio input device.
