Lesson 9 Mixing Sound in Fairlight: Exploring theInterface

NOTE Before recording, it’s a good idea to know your lines. Here is the

endingtag line for the trailer: “In the age of airplanes, we’ve become explorers

once again.”

2 Practice your line once or twice prior to recording.

When recording, you do not want any of the other tracks to be audible, or they also

willbe recorded.

3 Solo track A2 VO.

4 In the transport controls. click the record button. When the playhead starts moving and

drawing a red region within the timeline, you are recording. Read the line with your

best movie trailer voice. When you are finished, press the spacebar to stop recording.

5 Un-solo track A2 VO so you can review the voiceover with the music and sound effects.

6 Play your recording.

7 When you are finished, in the track header, click the arm button to disarm the track.

Even though this temp VO is all you need for this project, DaVinci Resolve’s Fairlight audio

includes more advanced recording tools for automatic dialogue replacement (ADR),

multitrack music recording, and foley sound effects. If you weren’t able to record the

voiceover, the next exercise will bring you up to date as you work with a professionally

pre-recorded voiceover clip.

Modifying Clip Attributes

Although you recorded a fine temporary VO, when the real VO is recorded with professional

talent, you’ll need to preview it and add it to the timeline. You can access and preview any

audio clip in your Media pool within the Fairlight page.

1 In the upper-left corner of the DaVinci Resolve window, click the Index button to close

the Index, and click the Media pool to show the bins and clips in this project.

2 In the bin list, select the Audio bin.
