Blackmagic Design Fairlight Desktop Console for DaVinci Resolve

Unlock DaVinci Resolve’s True Audio Potential

The Blackmagic Design Fairlight Desktop Console is a 12-fader audio mixing controller designed to reap top-functionality from DaVinci Resolve’s esteemed audio-editing engine. The mixer equips you with pan, solo, mute, dynamics, EQ, plug-in parameters, and additional controls, granting control of up to a dozen separate audio tracks without you having to dig around your software’s internals. Additionally, an HDMI output offers an instant visual of your channels, including bus and effects statuses. Best of all, the Fairlight’s simple USB-C interfacing system will get you up and running in no time, providing seamless out-of-the-box support for both Windows and macOS devices. DaVinci Resolve’s audio potential is ripe for the taking — take full command for yourself with a Fairlight Desktop Console.

Designed for maximum mixing productivity

Mixing and mastering visual audio are not considered easy processes. Automatic controls onboard the Fairlight Desktop Console, however, have proved to keep City Music engineer’s workflow simple and efficient. As soon as you boot into DaVinci Resolve, the Fairlight’s 12 motorized faders will instantly recognize the parameters of your project and position themselves accordingly, allowing you to get started at minimal leveling setup times. Likewise, built-in status displays atop each channel are available to indicate meters, panning, track names, and more for quick adjustment identification. If you’re particular about the look of your rig, you’ll love the Fairlight’s sleek and ergonomic design, which is topped off with illuminated control buttons to match the lighting of nearly any work environment.

For use with DaVinci Resolve Studio 18

DaVinci Resolve Studio has a shining reputation as the go-to software for efficient color grading and video that pops. But Blackmagic Design has also expanded Resolve Studio with powerful nonlinear editing tools, making the software a veritable one-stop shop for post-production needs. You can edit video and audio, color correct, finish, and deliver a final product — all from one screen. It even allows you to import projects as XML files from other NLEs, including Premiere Pro. Essential tools are grouped in a streamlined tab-based system that keeps features hidden when you don’t need them, so the software has a clean look and feel simultaneously optimized for individual users, large teams, and even studio owners. Beneath the hood, there are dozens of pro-ready features, including collaborative timelines for multi-editor operations and automatic scene detection, that let content creators and production houses repurpose older content at lightning speeds. Other top notable features include 4K output, top-notch temporal and spatial noise reduction, and 3D tools, to name a few. Furthermore, unlike other NLE video software, DaVinci Resolve Studio is a one-time buy — no subscription fees or recurring payments!
