User Manual

Once the bounced audio is opened in the external application, you can process it however you
need to and bake in any changes made by saving/rendering/outputting and overwriting the
original copied audio media file. DaVinci Resolve detects when changes have been made, and
the altered result is automatically reimported as an additional audio layer on top of the original
clip in the Timeline.
The way an audio application is configured in the DaVinci System Preferences dictates how the
bounced audio file is passed to the external program. There are three choices:
 Command Line: As a command line parameter, if your audio application is able to be
run from the Terminal.
 Clipboard: By placing the path to the bounced file in the clipboard, so you can paste
it into the application which has been automatically launched, or import it via a File >
Open dialog.
 Reveal: By revealing the bounced copy in the file manager of your workstation, so you
can drag and drop it onto the application which has been automatically launched.
