Mute and Solo Tracks For Output
When you use the Mute or Solo controls of the Audio Mixer, track audio is disabled both during
playback and delivery for output. Make sure you have re-enabled any tracks you need before
heading to the Deliver page. You can only modify mute and solo tracks on the Edit, Cut, and
Fairlight pages.
Displaying Audio Meters
If you just want to see your program’s levels, you can also switch to display the “Control Room”
audio meters instead of the Mixer. How many audio meters appear depends on the current
speaker configuration in the Video and Audio I/O panel of the System Preferences.
To show the Audio Meters:
Click the Mixer button on the Interface toolbar to display the audio panel and then
choose Meters from the option menu at the upper right-hand corner.
Audio Compound Clips
DaVinci Resolve supports audio compound clips, which are created just like any other
compound clip, by selecting multiple audio clips, right-clicking one of them, and choosing New
Compound Clip. Alternately, compound clips with video clips may now contain multiple audio
items as well.
When compound clips containing audio are opened in the Edit or Fairlight pages by right-
clicking an audio compound clip and choosing Open in Timeline, breadcrumb controls appear
beneath the Timeline that let you exit the compound clip and get back to the master Timeline.

Audio Playback for Variable Speed Clips
Video/audio clips with variable speed effects applied to them can now play either pitch-
corrected or un-pitch-corrected variable speed audio. An option in the Speed menu of the
Retime controls lets you choose whether or not the audio is pitch-corrected.
