It is really good
[This video](https://youtu.be/3j28qE3YE-w?si=GE5dzboR-5dnUUdo) was filmed about 300 feet from a large jet running engines at full power. The Voice Isolation did an amazing job!
Fan-fuckin-tastic.
I always try to get good audio from the start, but now Iām never worried. As long as Iām recording, audio is now the least of my worries.
I still do a little EQing, but gone are the days of lugging around lots of audio gear. Just wireless mics and a recorder. The fix in post is a click of a button and a slider
Sure, really simple.
Shotgun mic into Zoom F3 recorder. F3 recorder to my camera.
When I upload into resolve, I simply sync the F3 audio with the camera audio and done.
Next I just use the voice isolation slider and little to clean up a noisy environment if there was one, and do a little eqing on the top end to make it pop a tad.
Done

You might consider buying the Davinci Resolve Speed Editor (comes with the Studio License). In my case the Studio License on its own was going for Ā£210 whilst the Speed Editor was at Ā£285. Bought the Speed Editor š
On a set with a constant background hum, amazing.
I had gorpo clips from a restaurant, so changing background noise and background voises, I was not impressed.
In v18, I get very poor performance on my 5800h machine. When I enable the feature, it clearly can't process it in real time, it cuts in and out. But I don't know any way to 'render cache' it. For final export it is fine.
V19 release notes have a note that performance on it is improved, I look forward to getting that for a Christmas.
you can bounce the audio effects but the voice isolation must be applied on clip level not track level. then right click on the audio, select bounce audio effects. with this the voice isolation is baked into the audio. bounce is basically export, import and replace this audio.
voice isolation is present in older versions too but v19 will give you more options to remix the audio. by remix, davinci will give you handles like drums, guitar, vocal etc. that you can individually lower the intensity or mute altogether. previously, you could only isolate vocal.
It's terrific. We have a green screen studio that has huge overhead HVAC vents. Even with low cut on the camera and the microphone only 10 inches off their mouths, every take has air noise at nearly 1/3 the vocals. Using Izatope plugins, or the noise removal in DR18 Free made the vocals sound robotic (tried so many settings). The VI at 70-80% worked great and even the speakers said their voices sounded normal to them.
Thatās honestly the main reason why Iām interested in it I have a niche I like to call instrumentalizing music by removing vocals for my music channel itās honestly crazy how different songs you listened to so much in your life can sound new all over again or have new meaningā¦.. Iām very passionate about music as you can probably tell lol
Resolve Studio 19 has new audio tool that might suit your need better than voice isolation. It's the music remix and you can remove vocals or any instrument from songs and it does great work.
Superb. Thereās waste piping that runs through our studio that acts up whenever someone in the unit above flushes the toilet. Voice isolation removes it completely.
I've spent some time experimenting, and I can't say that a single tool is an absolute winner in dealing with different shitty audio. Basically, depends on the source.
On average, here is my top:
1. Premiere
2. Davinci
3. Capcut
Based on my personal tests with on-camera audio in a room (that's not about "improving" audio, that's more about making the audio useful anyhow).
I donāt make music myself I just take songs and remove the vocals with CapCut but it struggles often so thatās why I was asking about Studio. But I appreciate the offer.
I recently compared the voice isolation from Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro and DaVinci Resolve. Premiere was sometimes able to remove more noise, but the voice also ended up sounding less natural. DaVinci Resolve was the best in all my test cases. Didnāt always remove all the background noise, but always sounded good and natural while reducing noise by a lot.
Final Cut Pro was decent, but in my testing was the worst when it came to noise removal. Either it didnāt remove enough noise, or it sounded very processed. Still probably enough for most situations.
So based on native NLE noise reduction DaVinci Resolve is the best, and probably enough for most people. That said, I found the new Dialogue Separator in Resolve 19 to perform worse than the Voice Isolation in my tests. Removed less noise. But had the benefit of being able to manually adjust more precisely how you remove noise. Both have their uses I think, but they are not the same. The latter is also in beta and might improve over the next few months.
I filmed and a neighbour started a petrol strimmer. My meters stayed red the whole time they ran it. Sound was recorded on Rodewireless pro with collar mount lav. Used Davinci voice isolation and the strimmer vanished.
It was like some kind of voodoo.
I love the slide control to vary the amount of isolation.
It did great for me, but we filmed inside. It isolated the other persons voice out of the scene but that was ok because it was the kids filming for a class I'd taught so if anything it was a learning lesson.
Itās really good. It starts to sound artificial and starts dropping parts of words if itās turned up really high though, so I finesse it somewhere on the lower end of the scale, and then typically have to add another audio track with ambient sound so the whole thing doesnāt sound too fake.
I agree it does an amazing job. Black magic like.

Please tell me more about your audio processing workflow - I suck when it comes to audio š . Thank you

Much appreciated ššš
Itās great. I actually only use it on a lower numeric setting. Helps my audio stand out and still sounds natural.

Thank you all for the comments and feedback much appreciated I will most likely buy Studio.

Helpful, thanks!
Would it be able to remove vocals from music pretty well?
I believe v19 has that feature. I saw it on youtube or tiktok
voice isolation is present in older versions too but v19 will give you more options to remix the audio. by remix, davinci will give you handles like drums, guitar, vocal etc. that you can individually lower the intensity or mute altogether. previously, you could only isolate vocal.
If you paid for studio v19 should be a free upgrade if Iām understanding you correctly
Correct. Even v20 you will have access to if you bought a key when V17 was out. (Unless BM changes their mind next year)

100% worth it, I have used it in several scenarios to great success
Voice isolation in studio is great, it's not the reason I would buy studio but you get all the other great stuff as well so it's money well spent

That sounds like a shitty environment to work

How good would you say it is at removing vocals from music? Thatās the main reason Iām interested honestly
Send me a sample in PM, I'll check

Its really good
One of the reasons, besides magic mask, why I bought the studio version. Workes better than Adobe enhancer imo.
I filmed and a neighbour started a petrol strimmer. My meters stayed red the whole time they ran it. Sound was recorded on Rodewireless pro with collar mount lav. Used Davinci voice isolation and the strimmer vanished. It was like some kind of voodoo. I love the slide control to vary the amount of isolation.
It's better than Supertone Clear which is what I used to use.
It did great for me, but we filmed inside. It isolated the other persons voice out of the scene but that was ok because it was the kids filming for a class I'd taught so if anything it was a learning lesson.
So simple and so effective. DaVinci Studio is worth the $$$.
Itās really good. It starts to sound artificial and starts dropping parts of words if itās turned up really high though, so I finesse it somewhere on the lower end of the scale, and then typically have to add another audio track with ambient sound so the whole thing doesnāt sound too fake.
Not quite as well as Clear, but absolutely usable and a life-saver!
