DaVinci Resolve ↔ Pro Tools

Keep your Pro Tools mix in step with your Resolve edit.

FROM EDIT TO MIX, AND BACK

Three steps.
Your existing session.

Work on a marked passage or the entire timeline. Keep the mix in the Pro Tools session you already know.

01 / PREPARE

Bring the edit
into the mix.

Open your Resolve timeline and Pro Tools session. WaveSplice detects the open pair. Choose Resolve’s In/Out marks or the entire timeline, then prepare.

WaveSplice checks the edit, applies supported cut changes, and selects the corresponding audio range in Pro Tools.

02 / MIX IN PRO TOOLS

Pick up where
your mix left off.

Mix the prepared range in your existing Pro Tools session. Continue with the processing you have already put in place.

Effects context can include audio before and after a passage for processing, without extending the range returned to Resolve.

03 / RETURN TO RESOLVE

Put the finished audio
back in the edit.

Bounce the mix and return it to a new Resolve revision. You can also choose an already bounced WAV for a prepared passage.

WaveSplice verifies timing and returned audio. Resolve keeps its fades and the separate Audio 2 material in the established workflow.

LESS MANUAL REARRANGING

Built around
your existing session.

For audio editors, mixers, and post-production teams working between Resolve and Pro Tools. Session following, handoff checks, and recovery records keep the workflow connected.

01

Follows the sessions you have open.

Keep your Resolve timeline and Pro Tools session open. WaveSplice follows the active pair automatically as you work.

02

Checks at the handoff.

Timing, source mapping, and returned-audio verification help check the work as it passes between applications. Uncertain operations may still need your attention.

03

A record beside your session.

Recovery records reference relevant backups and evidence beside the Pro Tools session to support restoration.

DEVELOPMENT PREVIEW

Current compatibility
and availability.

WaveSplice is currently an Apple Silicon macOS development preview. Testing has covered the local configuration shown here; broader compatibility has not been established.

Public download, pricing, and release timing have not been announced.

Tested local configuration

Mac
Apple Silicon

Returned audio
Stereo, 24-bit PCM WAV 96 kHz

Minimum macOS requirements are still being determined.

What has been validated?

Full-timeline and marked-passage audio round trips have passed in the supported local setup. The latest session-following and branding update has passed automated and interface checks; a fresh live round trip has not been repeated after that update.

This is a development preview, with qualification currently limited to the configuration above.

Which tracks and formats does it follow?

The established workflow follows Resolve’s audio track THIS, keeping separate Audio 2 material in Resolve. Arbitrary track layouts are not yet broadly qualified.

It works with existing Pro Tools .ptx sessions and open Resolve projects and timelines. The tested returned-audio format is stereo, 24-bit PCM WAV at 96 kHz.

What are the current limits?

WaveSplice handles audio. Video transfer is deferred, and playlist support is outside this version’s scope. Resolve fades remain handled in Resolve.

Existing Pro Tools processing is retained, but compatibility with every plug-in and automation arrangement has not been established. Ambiguous mappings or uncertain operations may require attention. Recovery records support restoration; they do not provide a universal one-click Undo.

What is needed on the Mac?

The current build is for Apple Silicon macOS and requires macOS control and screen-access permissions. Keep the Resolve timeline and Pro Tools session open so WaveSplice can follow them.

Windows, Intel Mac, and mobile versions are not established. Official minimum macOS requirements and broader application-version, sample-rate, and frame-rate support are still undecided.

Your edit moves forward.
