Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve 11 Editing and Color Correction Software

Compared to the previous version, the Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve 11 Editing and Color Correction Software greatly increases non-linear editing capability, providing a one-stop on-set, post production, and finishing solution. In addition, it features improved support for multi-GPU systems with the ability to benefit from up to three GPUs dedicated to parallel processing on one machine, and adds cluster support for extreme real-time performance when using the Linux version (Linux support requires the separately available Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve Control Surface, which itself includes a dongle). 

DaVinci Resolve 11 supports a wide range of acquisition formats from highly-compressed smartphone footage up to camera RAW formats in 4K, 5K, and higher resolutions. Supported formats can be edited and graded natively or proxies can be created for lower-powered machines or use in third-party software, such as Final Cut Pro X, Premiere Pro, and Media Composer. Either way, the original source material is used when rendering the final output ensuring no generational quality loss. Export to multiple formats at once is possible, with settings for Web, tape, and high-quality broadcast to choose from. With a separately available EasyDCP license you can even create cinema-ready DCP package files.

DaVinci Resolve is a dongle licensed application and can be installed on Windows or OS X without additional hardware. It is recommended that you download the latest version of the full (not Lite) version of Resolve from the Blackmagic Design website. The dongle will need to be connected to the computer whenever using Resolve - if the dongle is accidentally removed during editing you will be given a chance to save your project before the program automatically quits. Project files are fully interchangeable between Resolve and Resolve Lite, however both applications cannot be simultaneously installed on one computer. Please uninstall any copies of Resolve Lite before installing Resolve. Hardware requirements vary depending on your application, however you will need as a minimum a dedicated graphics card connected via PCI-Express with OpenCL support - for details please refer to the Configuration Guide appropriate to your system found under the support section on the Blackmagic Design website.
