Windows utility for DaVinci Resolve editors
Stop pausing your music by hand while editing.
PauseSync pauses Spotify, TIDAL, or Chrome media when DaVinci Resolve starts playing audio. When Resolve goes quiet, it resumes the media it paused after a short delay. For example, it can pause a YouTube video playing on your second monitor while you preview a clip.
