Comment summary: DaVinci Resolve is widely praised for its powerful video editing and professional-grade color grading tools, offering a comparable experience to Adobe Premiere. Users highlight its effectiveness for both simple and professional projects with a highly intuitive interface, but warn that it requires a robust computer setup. Neutral feedback points out its requirement for registration and lack of open-source licensing. Critiques include unsupported codecs and challenging Linux installation.

Even in the demo version (which is unlimited might I add), you can do whatever you need to do. It doesn't degrade video or audio quality and it's SUPER easy to change the volume of individual audio files. It's absolutely amazing to use even if you'll just be working on simple projects and the layout is very compact and understandable.

The simple core functions work perfectly and it has many other options and features than I have mentioned here. Absolutely amazing but really pricey, although it is a one-time purchase and I feel it would be really useful for professional filmmaking with all its features.

DaVinci Resolve, touted as Emmy award winning video editor, isn't even capable of importing MKV files in 2020. You'll have to convert all your MKV files into DVR friendly DNxHD codec/format as mentioned here , in order to even import them. No, Thank you!

i like it because the free version is more than enough and because all in one software , i think the business model of BlakcMagic Design is the best out there the company grow when you grow .

A really powerful video editor. Modern and very snappy interface. It feels very responsive. The different tabs for every specific task make up for the interface, which is very fixed and can't really be customized. Even the free version meets the needs for hobby-level projects. You will have to convert your mp4 files to mov, because mp4 is a proprietary format, that must be licensed by companies. I'm using it on Linux and strangely enough, it crashes, when the effects panel is opened for too long. When I apply the effect and close the effect panel in the edit tab, there's no problem. It would be best, if blackmagic packaged the program as flatpak or some other format which is supported more widely.

Really good free and cross-platform video editor but requires registration, is not open source, and installation on Linux is hard (you can't just install it in the App Store).

For a free production application, DaVinci Resolve is feature packed. Move over iMovie and Clipchamp.

While there are other Free and Open Source alternatives, this is a lot more stable and I do find the Editor (not compositor) very similar to Premiere so there's no huge learning curve for me.

As an added bonus is Fairlight. This is a very capable alternative (if not equivalent) Adobe Audition.

Just be aware of the limitations with supported assets (e.g. limited to up to 4K resolution at up to 60fps).
