Here you can freely work with nodes, create your own effects, titles and much more. The Fusion tab is also available in the free version of DaVinci Resolve. Among it’s features are Facial Recognition for organizing bins, Speed Warp, Object Isolation & Tracking and Depth Map.Īll of these effects are really useful, so in case you need them for your project, you’ll definitely have to buy the Studio version. Still, you won’t find over 30 additional effects, such as Magic Mask, Smart Reframe, Lens Correction, Noise Reduction, Motion Blur in the free version of DaVinci Resolve. Another strong advantage of the studio version is Neural Engine, which uses AI to minimize repetitive tasks. Some of the main effects available in the free version: Masking, Tracking, Green Screen, Freeze Frame, Mirroring, Stabilization, Slow Motion, Blanking Fill, Speed Ramping, and Reverse.Taking this into account, the free version of DaVinci Resolve is fully covering the needs of most editors. It means you can apply dozens of great effects to your videos.

The free version of DaVinci Resolve has a library of effects, which is quite vast and almost the same as in the DaVinci Resolve Studio version. This leads us to the GPU-accelerated effects limitations below.

With the studio version you can switch between the CPU and GPU, which can greatly speed up playback and rendering performance. The studio version supports more formats, including H.264 and H.265, AVCHD, AV1 and allows you to work with 10-bit footage, which gives more space for editors.Īdditionally, the free version allows you to use one GPU graphics card, while the studio version allows you to use multiple GPUs for encoding and decoding. Still, it’s more than enough for most projects. DaVinci Resolve free version allows you to choose between 8-bit H.264 and H.265, so you won’t be able to apply AV1 and other codecs.
