DaVinci Resolve Render Presets and Quick Export Explained

Are you tired of fumbling with render settings every time you export from DaVinci Resolve? Do you wish you could speed up your delivery workflow and ensure consistent results, no matter the project or editor?

I know the feeling. That’s why I wanted to share a game-changing trick: custom Render Presets and Quick Export in DaVinci Resolve. It will have you exporting videos in no time.

What are Render Presets?

Render Presets are pre-configured export templates that streamline the rendering process. DaVinci Resolve comes with a ton of built-in presets for common platforms like YouTube, Vimeo, and professional formats like ProRes. But the true power unlocks when you start creating your own custom presets.

I have a video with some cool information you should check out.

Creating Custom Render Presets: Dial in Your Perfect Settings

The real magic happens when you build your own templates. Resolve lets you set the options in the Custom preset to what your project requires. I am talking about things like:

• Codec: Choose the compression method that balances quality and file size.
• Resolution: Optimize your video for the intended platform.
• Audio Settings: Ensure perfect sound with proper bit depth and channel configurations.

Then, hit “Save as New Preset”, give it a descriptive name, and even assign an icon for quick visual identification.

Unleash the Power of Quick Export

You can unlock the power of the Quick Export presets by saving your render settings with the “add to Quick Export” box checked. Quick Export puts the render settings on other pages, so you don’t have to go back to the deliver page to render your settings.

Share Your Presets for Consistent Results

Consistency is key in professional video production. DaVinci Resolve lets you export your custom presets as .xml files. This allows you to share them with your team or move them to a new system.

By leveraging custom Render Presets and Quick Export, you’ll save time, reduce errors, and deliver consistently high-quality videos, every single time. This method ensures a more efficient and professional workflow. I hope this helps.
