— Available Plugins: Once you’ve added one or more VST directories to the list, a second list underneath shows all audio plugins that are available within these directories. Each plugin on the list has a checkbox that shows whether or not it’s currently enabled. Any VST plugins that cause DaVinci Resolve to crash while loading them during startup will be automatically disabled. You can use this list to see which plugins have been disabled, for troubleshooting purposes, and to reenable such “blacklisted” plugins by turning their checkboxes back on.

— Setup External Audio Processes: While working in the Fairlight page, you have the ability to process an audio file using a third-party application, if necessary, in the event you need to use another application’s capabilities to create an effect or solve an issue that can’t be accomplished in the Fairlight page itself. To do this, you must first add one or more applications to the External Audio Process list in the Audio Plugins panel of the System Preferences.
1 Click the Add button.
2 Double-click the text in the Name column and change the name to that of the application or process you’re going to link to.
3 Click once in the Path column, and then use the file dialog to locate and select the application or script you want to use as the external audio process.
4 Open the drop-down menu in the Type column, and choose how you want the selected audio process to work: Reveal (open the application), Command Line (use from Terminal), or Clipboard (copy the audio clip file path to the clipboard to paste into the open command of an application or utility).
5 When you’re done, click Save, and restart DaVinci Resolve if you’re prompted to.
Control Panels
Two sections let you specify which Color Grading Panel and Audio Console is connected to your workstation.
— Color Grading Panel: A menu lets you choose which color grading panel you have connected to your workstation. Some panels expose additional controls.
If you have a DaVinci Resolve Mini or Micro Panel, leave this setting set to None and these panels will be auto-detected by Resolve when you plug them in.
If you have a control panel that connects via USB, choose your panel from the list.
If you have a DaVinci Resolve Mini Panel connected over Ethernet, choose “DaVinci Resolve Mini Panel (Ethernet)” and then choose your panel from the drop-down that appears.
If you’re using a JLCooper Eclipse, choose “JLCooper Eclipse CX” and then enter the IP and Port number into the fields that appear.
— Audio Console: A menu lets you choose which Fairlight Audio Console you have connected to your workstation. Some panels expose additional controls.
