Remix for Music

Dear BMD.
Splitting audio/music is really pain. This is really time comsuming. Some video editor has a feature 'Remix'. It can remix a music automatically base on length of the clip.
Hopefully this top feature would be bring to DR.
Thanks.

+1 I used this feature almost everyday in premiere, would very much like it resolve.

Automatic remix? I'd like to learn what that is. Can you be more specific?

(The word "remix" seems to have a special meaning in this context.)

Not sure posting a direct link to the Adobe website is the done thing, but if you search Google for "remix-audio-in-premiere-pro" the first result has all the info. There are dozens of Youtuber vids on it too. This is an official one I think.

Thank you for the hint. Interesting feature. I wonder if the algorithm can also analyse Beethoven or jazz :-)

Thanks andy for explaning.

This is exactly the kind of automation that would simplify my workflow a lot.

Sorry to all the experts who know think less of me

This is actually the one feature holding me back from making the switch from Adobe atm...!

The remix-tool built into premiere pro is the tool I use most for audio. I'm making an online course, and each module has different length classes. I use the same song on each video, and with the remix-tool it's a "pull or stretch"-single-click-action. Takes literally 2 seconds to make any song fit the length of the video.

A must-have for DVR - and maybe the last feature missing before complete world domination

Would love to see this feature added to Resolve. I use it in Audition all the time to quickly cut down a 3 minute song to :15, :30 or 1:00 for social media. Although it would be nice to have more control over which parts of the song are selected, it's kind of random right now in audition. For example it would be nice to be able to select I want the intro, this drop, this chorus and the outro included and have Davinci stitch them all together for you

insanely cool feature, and i embrace automatic features that really help my edit. but thinking about the real world, often the creative part is for example when you have a talking head or voiceover, and you want to insert some rest/energy to the edit for a few seconds, i'd like to mix in a nice part of the music which emphasizes the feeling you want to give the audience, then mix back to something else to continue with the talking head/voiceover. (if this makes sense) Which still leaves me doing manual stuff, right?

I guess this feature is especially useful for when you have a very simple/linear video on top of music edit without much dynamic stuff going on right?

Rick, you describe something that I have been doing for more than 40 years. It's called music editing. You can not only make a high point or points in the music emphasize something that has been said, but hit a particular point in the visuals as well.

Today , the term of 'AI' is more and more popular. May be Remix AI for music.

For those who prefer creating loops manually and want more control, I have an additional request. I would like to suggest a loop point detection function.

Here's how it would work: The user selects an audio clip and places the playhead where loop creation is desired. Then, right-click and select the "Detect loop points" function. DaVinci will then analyze the entire clip and identify all the points that can be looped to the playhead position. These detected loop points will be placed as clip markers for easy reference.

I've been playing and editing music for over 20 years, so I'm totally with you on editing audio myself... however, I imagine expert colorists say the same thing about auto-color/contrast.

While I have no problem with AI helper tools, I do think that BMD should give us better manual editing tools and bring the Edit page up to speed first before adding on AI "auto-complete" editing features. Once the Edit page is rock solid, then sure, go nuts.

<Sigh> there's really no need to be so patronising about it. I'd guess every single person that uses this board is acutely aware of that process and probably pretty adept at it.

Have you used remix in Audition? It's one more tool and that's all. Sometimes I use it and it comes out great first time, sometimes it gets you halfway there and sometimes it just gives you an idea of what you can do with a track.

The job evolves, you know that and so does everyone else here and no one, yourself included would be contributing to a feature request board if they were content with things as they are.

Sorry for being harsh but this attitude on here is soul-destroying at times.

I never intended to be patronizing, just stated a fact. No, I have not used it in Audition as I'm a Pro Tools user.
There's nothing wrong with automated tools, I just feel that they tend to replace the skills that have been learnt over time and get forgotten.

I 100% agree with Charles here -- but I'm also a Pro Tools user (in a past life). I need to get back to Pro Tools, and that's on my To Do list for 2023. I don't expect any AI tools to do my work for me; I just want them to do the annoying background tasks I'd rather avoid doing.

yup. It's also something i got quite good at i think . Without going too much off-topic, that's the reason why i don't like the current frame-based audio clip slip/move behavior in the edit page since version 18.1 or so (except when you zoom in on the timeline to the extreme).

Obviously automating a remix surrenders the precise control and the craft that seasoned editors and audio pros appreciate, but we/they don't have to use it.

It's also exactly the kind of glamorous feature that marketing departments and demo artists love. Maybe we can come to an arrangement whereby 'we' get the hundreds of marketing averse minor features, fixes and enhancements that so many of us actually want and need, and 'they' get a fancy new feature they can crow about?

Those annoying background tasks keep mounting up though don't they?

It's fairly obvious that those criticising this have never actually used the feature in Audition, so wouldn't it make sense to try it first before dumping on it?

Having used Remix in several projects now in both Premiere and Audition, I'm very pleased with it.

Did the first job ... cutting a 3:45 music track into a 1:15 promo beautifully. In seconds.

Second one, I ran a second pass to get a different take, the second pass was dead on.

Third one I needed to manually slip the end point then remix again.

I've had several more, one variant of the above works every time.

Gee,I don't record the music manually for most things these days, do I? I select a track from a service. And I spend far more time selecting the music tracks than editing them in now.

Would really appreciate this in Resolve.

I think it would be a reasonable Feature Request to ask for sub-frame audio track editing on the Edit page, just as it is on the Fairlight page. I have no doubt it'd take a lot of programming work to get done, but I totally get that it'd be a good feature to have.

Man I had to "remix" music tracks so often, and just when they were about right, the client wanted changes to the overall edit that messed the timing up and I had to do another "remix".

It was nothing but a waste of time, a skill I'd happily forget.

It's also a killer feature for short form content creators.

+1 WOULD LOVE FOR THIS FEATURE TO BE ADDED PLEAASE

It has to be added just to keep it on the trend of innovation. Leave the manual tools but ads the AI "Kind of magic" that it is feed by those and us who already mix manual.

Nothing wrong to have more tools and keep it up with competition.

I agree, nothing wrong with having more tools. However, the manual audio tools are not there yet in Resolve IMO. I am currently exporting all audio out of Resolve to do final editing and mixing in Reaper. I think the priority should be on getting the basic tools implemented and solid first, then I'm not opposed to adding on more AI based audio tools on top of it.

I'd love this feature to be added, dear developpers <3

and for god's sake, upgrade the "sound library" plug-in

Hi everyone,

Anyone knows if the audio get processed in the cloud or locally in the machine?
is there any Blackmagic documentation on this regards?

This seems an amazing feature and on my workplace lot's of people are excited to try it out but there are some concerned about security. In particular on not released audio material.
