Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve 16 Public Beta 6 is Out!

Hot off the heels of the previous DaVinci Resolve Public Beta 5, which Blackmagic Design released just a week ago, the innovative Australian company is now releasing Blackmagic Design Resolve 16 Beta 6. The latest update adds new support for Fairlight consoles on Mac, properly maintains dual screen layouts between restarts, addresses issues with transition levels in colour managed projects, improves FLAC waveform drawing, corrects lightbox thumbnail preview errors, improves stability when viewing multiple mask paint tools in Fusion and more.

Fusion Studio 16 Public Beta 6 improves stability when viewing multiple mask paint tools, addresses errors with the blur tool on Linux systems, and features multiple general performance and stability improvements.
