Interface Navigation in Resolume

The user interface in Resolume can seem intimidating but under the surface, it’s very flexible and versatile to suit your needs. Easily navigate and customize the interface to build a workspace for you fast.

Default Layout

Resolume’s default layout can be overwhelming at first. But, breaking it into four main categories makes it easier to understand.
  • Decks Grid: Located at the top, used for building shows with cues and files.
  • Monitors: Preview and composition monitors for viewing files and rendered compositions.
  • Parameters Panes: For adjusting parameters of compositions, layers, and clips.
  • Bins: For pulling in files, compositions, effects, and sources.

Customizing the Layout

Users can modify the default layout to better suit their workflow.
  • Creating Custom Layouts: Go to 'View Layout'. There you can switch between default and custom layouts. For example, adding more layers or removing unnecessary panes.
  • Hiding and Showing Panes: Right-click to hide or show panes, or use the 'View' tab to manage pane visibility.

Working with Multiple Monitors

Optimizing the interface for multiple monitors can enhance your workflow efficiency.
  • Undocking Panes: Right-click to undock and move panes to different screens.
  • To add monitors, duplicate preview monitors. Do this by right-clicking and selecting 'Duplicate.' Then, adjust settings via the gear icon. Use the settings to assign roles like composition or preview.

Tips

Tailoring the layout based on the task at hand can improve efficiency.
  • Programming and operating layouts differ. Use a complex layout for programming and a simpler one for live operation. This helps streamline tasks and reduce clutter.
  • Focus on features you use. Hide those that you need less often.
