How To Install LUTs in DaVinci Resolve

How to import the D34 LUTs into your Davinci Resolve

Open Project Settings
Click on the gear button at the bottom right of the page. Select the Color Management Panel and navigate to the Lookup Tables section. Click on the button “Open LUT Folder“.

Place LUTs in Folder
Drag your LUTs (.cube files) into this folder. *Note: If you downloaded the non-studio version of DaVinci Resolve from the Apple App Store, LUTs are saved in a different location.

MAC INSTALL

  • Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/DaVinci Resolve/LUT/

WINDOWS INSTALL

  • C: \ProgramData\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve\Support\LUT

Refresh LUT List
Navigate back to DaVinci Resolve and open up the Color Page by clicking on the “Color” button in the bottom menu tab. Click on the “LUTs” tab in the top left toolbar, then right click anywhere in the LUT Browser and select “Refresh“.

Choose the D34 LUT
Select your clip and add a “Serial Node” in the Node Editor. Choose from the Node Editor dropdown either “Clip” or “Timeline” view (Clip is the default). Either right click and select your LUT in the “LUT” dropdown menu, or navigate to the LUT Browser in the top left Toolbar and drag your LUT onto the node you want to apply a LUT.

Adjust the D34 LUT
The D34 LUT you imported will now be loaded and you should see the look applied to your footage. Now you can add new nodes to change the saturation, contrast, primaries to create the final look.
