Buying guide
Choose DaVinci Resolve controls for your workflow
Start with your main task. The Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve Studio Sale brings together Blackmagic Design hardware for different parts of post-production. Colour panels put image adjustments under dedicated physical controls, while the Editor Keyboard supports two-handed editing and the Replay Editor targets multicamera news and sports workflows. Choose by the work you need to perform rather than treating every controller as an alternative to the same device.
Compact colour control. The DaVinci Resolve Micro Colour Panel suits a compact grading setup, particularly one built around an Apple iPad Pro. Its mounting slot holds the iPad Pro as your software display, while three trackballs and twelve knobs provide hands-on image adjustment. Controls cover contrast and tonal adjustments, as well as image sizing and power-window adjustments. Consider whether this compact layout gives you the controls you use most often.
Menus and flexible installation. The DaVinci Resolve Mini Panel provides two LCD screens for viewing menus or tool parameters directly on the panel. This is useful when you want physical grading controls with information displayed alongside them. Its desktop, rack and bolt-down installation options suit different workspaces. Its listed computer support covers Mac, Windows and select Linux installations, so match your workstation and intended installation to those requirements.
A larger grading console. The DaVinci Resolve Advanced Panel combines a main console with two auxiliary consoles and a slide-out keyboard. Four weighted trackballs, thirty customisable control knobs and five LCDs give colourists a broader physical control layout. One-touch access to virtually every Resolve control suits work centred on extensive hands-on grading. Plan the workspace around its three-console arrangement rather than assuming it occupies the same space as a compact panel.
Editing versus replay. The DaVinci Resolve Editor Keyboard combines a search wheel with dedicated edit keys, allowing one hand to move through a clip while the other marks points and applies edits. It supports desktop use or inset console installation. The DaVinci Resolve Replay Editor instead prioritises camera selection and editing for multicamera news cutting and live sports replay. Decide whether your priority is detailed clip editing or working between camera angles in a replay workflow.
