Table Of Contents
TIP: In the Edit page, Video+Audio clips are presented as separated Video and Audio
items on different tracks. When you open the Fairlight page, audio is presented on
tracks with lanes, where each audio channel can be seen. In this way, each page gives
you different sets of controls over the contents of the timeline that are appropriate for
each page.
The Edit Page
The Edit page exposes a source-record style NLE that incorporates many specialized features
for both creative editing and finishing. The Edit page is divided into three main regions: the
browsers found at the left, the Viewers at the top, and the Timeline at the bottom, all of which
work together to let you import, edit, and trim timelines with a flexible variety of tools
and methods.

For more information on the Edit page, see Chapter 25, “Using the Edit Page.”
The Media Pool
As with everywhere else it appears in DaVinci Resolve, the Media Pool lets you organize and
peruse all of the media and timelines in a project. DaVinci Resolve projects may contain one or
more edited timelines (sometimes called a sequence in other applications).
The Media Pool in the Edit page is identical to that shown on the Media, Fusion, Color, and
Fairlight pages, and shows you all of the source clips and timelines that are available for editing.
A Bin list at the left shows a hierarchical list of folders that you can use to organize your media.
By default, the Media Pool has a single bin, named “Master,” but you can add more bins as
necessary to organize your clips, opening any of them to expose their contents with a single
click. The Bin list can be hidden or shown via the button at the upper-left of the Media Pool.
Abrowser to the right shows the contents of the currently selected bin.
