DaVinci Resolve 14 completely redefines post production workflows! Assistant editors can prepare footage while editors cut the picture, colorists grade the shots, and sound editors mix and finish audio, all in the same project at the same time! You no longer have to waste time conforming and you no longer have to wait for a locked edit before starting color and audio work! That means picture editors, colorists, and sound editors can now work in parallel, leaving more time for everyone to be creative!
The one major drawback of Final Cut Pro is the lack of audio tools could Resolve be the answer. Here is a recent video from the Newsshooter team at NAB 2017.
DavInci Resolve 14 now with Fairlight Audio- Newsshooter at NAB 2017 from Newsshooter on Vimeo.
Considering the power of the free version, the addition of Fairlight might very well solve the FCPX lack of audio mixing issue. Even for a one man band, it would add another powerful tool. That said, for my small productions, the Logic plugins (compressor, Fat EQ, etc) are adequate. Does XML talk between FCPX and Resolve 14 or do you need 3rd party software for the translation?
