I have hidden the Fusion page, and it will stay that way... DaVinci Resolve has lost a lot of weight since the integration of the Cut page, Fusion, Fairlight.
You just can't work on a pro basis like this.
A strong NLE with great color grading possibilities, that's what it should be. Now it's becoming a toy software for vacation movies and stuff like that. NO ONE who does some serious AV work will make a detour through that cut page, and no one in his right mind will do a professional audio job in the Fairlight page. C'mon people... this is just common sence. I find it so frustrating (and not very hopeful) that BM is just not aware of that.
I'll give it some time, but already looking for some serious alternatives.
I wholeheartedly agree. I too thought a year ago that Resolve would be the AE / Premiere replacement they set out to be. But fusion is joke at best, the cut page is a toy for amateurs and just not needed, the fairlight page is buggy and crash-prone and the list goes on and on and on.
I stuck by BM for over a year now, reinstalled countless versions, got on every beta, tried every trick to make the software work. but other then plain editing and a superb color engine (which worked before all of the stuff they added but just never seemed to work for me) Resolve hasnt won me over. Far from it.
So, no, I will stop using it and recommending the software to other people in the industry. Premiere may be ******* too, but at least it works. Avid, being from the stone age for sure, is also looking quite good now when comparing the sheer stability of it. maybe in a few years when the BM tema finally iron out all the crazy bugs and quirks in Resolve and deliver a stable, working, reliable, not-crashing piece of software that is worth anything, I will come back. But as you: for now I am done.
